Title: Well how about that - The V6 does fit!
Post by: GSB on July 27, 2004, 09:08
Blitzo's latest project car... not as easy as a 2ZZ conversion, but do-able with time, patience and a lot of effort. (not to mention cash!)

Just out of interest, TTE did a V6 install into the '2, but the project was scrapped as the mods required put it into Boxter-S territory price-wise.

The kind of workshop most of us dream about I think! Oh to have all that space...

Need to move to a less crowded country I think  s:) :) s:)

Impressive work though - will have to keep an eye on SC to see when it's completed.

I love this quote though:

Quote from: "Hong"
Quote from: "Tikked"What are your plans for compensating for the extra rear weight?

Eat more!

 s:D :D s:D

So all I need is a v6 in the back to compensate for me.. Aha!  s:) :) s:)

That's true...but I don't think it would be too bad, if you don't charge yourself the time/work you do yourself, not to mention taking some profit for selling it. Also, assuming he buys used parts, it will be a lot less than getting new parts from Toyota.
