don't be soft... if you put a 13b in it, you may as well go turbo...

the only good rota, is a turbo rota :lol:

I dont need that much power for what i want it for. High Power isnt always best, there gets a point when more power is useless. And it would be more expensive, more problems etc.... and the rev range, speed, turbo spool, would not suit my needs for the car.

Would be fast in a straight line tho, but do you want to go that fast in a 86? I have one 240kph in mine with a 4AGTE, DANGEROUS! remember the 86 is only 920kg and the chassis is soft. Who knows how fast it would go with a 13bt. 13BT + 86 = XDEATHX Not for me, well not this car anyway...

I welcome any useful INFO on this converion, but i dont want the forum clogged with peopls random opinions that have no help to anyone.
thanks

im interested to know hy you chose to go 13b?? heaps of my mates have owned rotors,, not great for skids...

[DRFTPG]

i can deffinetly understand what your saying with the 13BT idea, i think a 13B with some decent carbies and built really strong would be a great car as when they are only lightly modified they can actually be quite a decent little engine. Keep us up to date with lots of pics man

[maxhag]

dont worry, i will post pics, but remember iam not starting anything for at least 2 months. I have a fucked back at the moment.....

[DRFTPG]

cant wait to see pics of the cross member and that, have you decided on the gearbox yet?

[maxhag]

I was gonna go mazda box, but everyone is telling me to go W58 with 13b bellhousing.
But as I stated earlier, my back is fucked and i wont be doing anything for months....
