i had a nissan urvan with a 5 litre ford on nitrous ....not nice in the wet.....but scared the sh** out of everyone (including me) at the lights....it ended up up near tamworth

When i was younger and sillier i put a 454 chev into a HR holden.

And before that a 250Cube Falcon 6 in a Morris Minor

Put a 350 chev in a 240 Z.....and also a 350 into an XJ6 Jag

Just finished and SR20 in a rodeo

Can't help my self......What i would like to do is put a 13b in a Morris minor...any takers

A vg30 in an EH holden would be nice too

seen a white mk1 escort, with a 378 cube clevo in it.

also, i nearly bought a white hi-ace van a few months ago, with a 302 in it.

on the fantasy front, i think a ovlov 240 with the entire running gear from a gtr would be amusing.

guy aroung my area, name is SOUTHO on these forums i think, has a old cressida with a 1JZ in it. but unlike other modded cressidas this one looks totally stock even with a stock exhaust. now thats a sleeper

Southo has a 2J not a 1J, and the exaust isn't stock, just well thought out :D

I have a 1978 TE Cortina with a 1JZGTE, GT30/40, Haltech and a locker :) .

I got the cooler to fit behind the stock grille and sprayed it black and all piping/siclone clamps. The exhaust is 3 inch turbo back but with a massive rear muffler and sounds just like a 4cyl below 2500rpm.

The brakes are covered up with Ford AU 5 stud persuit rims, all my gauges are concealed (boost gauge in air-con vent temp gauges below dash on brackets).

The only thing that gives it away slightly are the bonnet pins (needed because lots of structual material/bonnet catch taken out to fit cooler) and my 09ONE plates.

There has been manya upset Clubsport/XR8 Owner and maybe a Porsche 993(?) owner as well. Most turbo imports don't take too badly to getting beaten and are pretty interested in the car.

It just so happens it's for sale as well... :)

One of the guys at work has a Mitsu Mirage with 3L V6 Mivec engine in it from a FTO. Engine's mildly worked etc and it goes like a scalded cat !! ( I don't like front wheel drives though ).

Also, there's a guy driving around Sydney in a Jaffa Orange Volvo 240GL wagon that has the drive train from an R33 GTS-T fitted to it. It's not a weapon but has HUGE potential to be one !!

Actually, there are also 2 Volvo wagons running around Syd with 308 stroker's in them ( one light and one dark blue ). I got raced by the light blue one a couple of years ago and it caught me way off gaurd !!!

FTO's engine is a 2.0L V6 Mivec. I considering doing this conversion to a Mirage. 150kw in a 900kg car would make it pretty quick.

2JZ-GTE into a EH Panel Van is a sleeper conversion. There is one in Newcastle.

My buddy has got a Mirage with the 1.6L Mivec motor in it and all the running gear out of the zMirgae's they used to race in the Mirage Cup. It was putting out 148kw on the front wheels, scary torque steer!!!!

Yeah, the Mirage Cyborg-Rs were a decent hot hatch. They were set up to be a Civic Type-R competitor, back in the day....

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
