Just wonderin', what the most nuts conversion you've all heard of, I recon the most nuts would be close between an Alfa Sud with a 13BT and 4WD subaru driveline, a Datto 1600 circuit car from the 70s with a blown 351 clevland, and a type 3 VW fastback (70s race car) with a repco/brabam V8 in the middle, what do you guys recon?

An original mini with a leyland v8 for a back seat.

The shogun festivas (especially the supercharged one).

I've also seen a 454 put into an EH holden, thats a tight fit.

saw an AE82 twinky with an extra 4age in the back on a high octane vid.

But I reckon Toyota Australia has done the craziest one .... a 4AC in a AE86? what were they thinking? why downgrade? thats just crazy...

I realise that the alfa is FWD but the guy who built this one didnt think that was good enough so he put WRX running gear in and a 13bt, he even made his own twin plate clutch http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/blink.gif

A guy my uncle knew had this really hotted up VW beetle. He told his mates at the pub he was gonna supercharge it. They didnt believe it so he made a bet he'd do it before next friday.
So the next friday he remembers the bet and thinks "shit, what am i gonna do?" So he got one of those paint trays you use with rollers, painted it silver and stuck it on the bonnet.
When he gets to the pub his mates ask if hes the the SC. He points to the beetle out the window and theyre like "Shit! hes done it!" and paid up the bet. Didnt check under the bonnet or even realise bettles have the engine in the boot http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/laugh.gif

I saw Shifty in his sprinter last night. I love that car, and his 180 is a sweet ride aswell. He has done some crazy conversions. I remember when Shifty and another Pete put a 1J into a hilux, that was cool. It's been done to death now though!!
