I hop
e r&t
is on a very big hill tezza!

many thanks, we are OK

Hay Road & Track,

I live in SA but am interested in the V6 conversion
But I have a few questions

1st Is the engineering certification nationally accredited?
2nd what would be a around about cost to supply /fit ballpark (IE: I drive a MR2 up to you. Drop by few month latter and drive out [:x)])
3rd what time frame would it take roughly
4th would it have fitted /is there room for the AC compressor?
5th what base is better gen 1,2,3 / N/A or turbo is it not really impotent

Cheers
Iain

1st Is the engineering certification nationally accredited?

no such thing. although it is state by state, there are a lot of commonalities. needs more investigation to make sure you wont have a problem


2nd what would be a around about cost to supply /fit ballpark (IE: I drive a MR2 up to you. Drop by few month latter and drive out [:x)])

too many variables, but assuming i get a post 94 turbo car, then around $10k (exchange, ie we keep the old engine that comes out)

3rd what time frame would it take roughly

1 month

4th would it have fitted /is there room for the AC compressor?

a/c fitted in above

5th what base is better gen 1,2,3 / N/A or turbo is it not really impotent

see point 2. if you want to deliver something else, then phone me

So if we send you our +94 turbo you can convert it for $10k driveaway? Does that include exhaust manifolds and everything?

Thats no to bad considering you can re-sell your turbo gen 3 motor, loom and accessories for around $2-3k depending on mods.

sorry, price assumes we keep the old engine. i have amended my reply..
if someone really wanted to keep their old stuff, we would negotiate a price

Oh ok, maybe not so cheap then.

no, its not 'cheap", but nothing is. for example, it is less than the cost of building a really good 3SGTE if you allow for uprated turbo, good internals etc, and this is a much much better end result.
this conversion is not for everyone, and few people will spend big $ in 1 lump on a MR2.
Every day, i see cars that have had twice this spent on them over a few years, and they are still not good, in fact, some are complete lemons that should be off the road.
