Nice, but this one gets my vote. Jag V12 with XJ6 heads on it. One head had to be turned around so that the exhaust side would face outwards. There would be some serious machining involved. Apparently made down here in Melb, in some guy's 'shed'. [Updated on: Wed, 22 January 2003 12:47] [Report message to a moderator]

What's the Jag motor going into? It's obviously mid mounted so I have to assume it's a kit car, I can't think of any mid mount production cars that could fit that beast in or that you would want to put it in. [Report message to a moderator]

Haha "ONLY" 250kgs... Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't that over a third of the weight as the WHOLE ENTIRE CAR!?!?! lol. You want a perfect engine for your corolla, shove a 13B turbo in it, it's been done b4 with no probs, and it'll propell your little Corolla into the 8second 1/4mile bracket un-tubbed... that's if you're prepared to spend the same amount as rotorworx did on theirs lol. By the way, Australia is producing 13Bturbo rotaries with over 900hp now, i'm sure that is enough to satisfy your chassis-twisting needs... lol André [Updated on: Sat, 25 January 2003 01:42] [Report message to a moderator]

Not quite 1/3rd but pretty close The cars listed weight is 790kgs. I think i'm actually going to go down the 4A-GE path. it seems to be a pretty simple thing to do. I dont want a sub 10 second car! but a good 4age should get me into the 14s easy, and maybe high 13's. And i can always swap it for a gze later and ditch the pump for a hair drier.
