look whats turned up in norway....

[fuzzy]

ive been sent a link of a thread about my car on "the biggest car forum in norway" and although i dont understand whats being said i think the title of 'blasfemi' would suggest the author isnt the biggest fan of what ive done its nice to have done something of interest though

erik Mentioned that he was gonna do that- think the Norwegian boys are actually lovvin it

[Adammcf]

Cool, we all know how much they like their turbo BMW's over there so hopefully they will all like it even though its a Ford lump and not a BMW one.

[dan_emaps]

lol sweet, least they seem to be liking it! proper gets on my nerves when people start whinging about how could you do that etc.. i like my bmw's as much as the next man but thats a fantastic conversion!

[fuzzy]

thanks,99% of folk have loved it with just the odd purist moaning about ripping the heart out of my bmw,but i say its still a bmw at heart.if you got a heart transplant you would still be you you wouldnt become the person who donated their heart.i like to think ive done my bit to improve on what bmw originally built but some will disagree

It's just like Carlsberg...

It's just like Carlsberg...

a pisspoor lager thats overhyped?

[m-dtech]

told you the m50 was a good conversion

[steerfromtherear]

I would not give the time of day to anyone who thinks an old Tourer is too sacred a car to rip an m20 out and replace it with a cossie motor.
It is an admirable effort imo and well worth the respect of any Ford, BMW, or motoring fan.

Now if you had done it to an Alpina or hartge I would be first in line, angry mob style lol.

[steerfromtherear]

Do you find it flattering or a little wierd to find your car on a Norwegian internet site?

[Toby_Unna]

M-dtech

that's an m50, in a landcruiser or something, with a f***ing big turbo on the side?

where the hell did you find that picture

[E30BeemerLad]

I reckon that's in a Starlet or early RWD corolla Toby, even more mad!

[Pal318is]

Nice uma! Você deve ser satisfeito com aquele?

I couldnt find a translating tool for Norwegian, so I used Portugese instead.....

Nice motor mate and I would be well chuffed if mine was reviewed by others abroad, even if its not everyones cup of tea!

[drifty325i]

Looks like an 82 to 84 toyota corolla, or corona

[Pal318is]

[shahpor]

I know the guy that posted that!

He is the owner of the Alfa forum I am a moderator on.

If you go to forum.alfa156.net you can ask him what he thinks and what was said in English.

He is a very nice chap too

Do you find it flattering or a little wierd to find your car on a Norwegian internet site?

i find it flattering that something i have done is of interest to other people in another country,wether they like it or not

[e30symphony]

The toyota with the m50 is a KE70 corolla produced from 1974 to 1981/2. the last of the R.W.D corolla's apart from the ledgedary AE86 GT coupe corolla (hacki) that was built from '83 to mid '87. The AE86 used the KE70's floor pan and is all the same dimensions, so more or less the same thing. Well all Jap yolks are are'nt they!!!
