Well I can say the shell needs some serious work and the Honda engine transplant will be fun punctuated with lots of @$%^ and (*&%.

Are you in?

A 4 letter word, not Mini- it's VTEC!

Lots of work though- a Suzuki GTI Turbo would be easier... :P

Yeah lots of work but many hands make the work light. Just trying to tackle the issue of the gbox to stearing box issue and thinking of how I'll deal with the manifolds both sides.

As for straight bolt in....hmm It'd be a easyer to find a straight guy at the mardigra.

Most of the DIY websites that outline how its done make the mod on LHD cars... apparently things line up a bit easier.

I have a clubby out the front that I'd like to VTEC :twisted: if I ever get some serious $$$ and figure out how to do it.
