Me and a mate bought this to do up on teh weekend. Timing belt has stripped teeth so could need a lot of work. If it is too far gone we are gonna turbo is NA 300ZX you can just see it in the back ground.

1985 Nissan 300ZX Turbo 3.0 V6 with maroon leather interior, 5 speed, cruise control its uber pimp worthy!! very Beverly Hills Cop!!

It even has spidey senses!! (nasty big black widow spider)

Just take the engine out and put it in the back of a Mini.

I've measured one up, it will fit.

Is there not somebody who put one of these engines in the back of a 6r4 replica. I am sure it was in the original CCC Magazine.

Well after a fair few months....we got it all stripped down and put back together and it is now running sweet.

Holy crap i need a turbo on every car i own, it is only running about 4 psi and is like shit of a shovel.

I now know how addictive boost is!!!

Time to wind up the boost then boo.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Wierd!

I just saw one of these at an auction house earlier. A little bent - but surprised me as I didn't know they were even sold here.
