Right well what do you'd reckon?
Ca18det into a fully stripped and lightened 3door shell ( not my White one)

The engine is as sweet as a nut 35000 miles and a manual , will be getting it cheap and complete of a mate.
I know these engines aren't the most powerful and not as good as the sr20 engines but with a few mods and turbo swap 300bhp is a nice figure and should be nice in a empty shell.
Will make a good little drifter and track toy.
Going to keep it looking standard with L bumpers.

I'll be fully caging it for protection made by myself.

And no I'm not just gonna fit a yb in it cos it's easier because I already have one and not having one in another car lol

Will be starting a thread in a month or 2

why ask then?

only messing seems a good project but i can see it being alot of fabrication and wiring work.

snap, apart from im dropping it between the wings of the mk2 in my sig, but not for a year or so, gonna gather all the parts 1st, including an atlas axle, lsd, etc, should be great fun,

do it - be different

altho as said a lot fab work but if you are handy with metal work it should be ok.

Im thinking of dropping a focus st 5pot banger in my 3dr

Nice motors and relatively cheap to tune.

Shouldnt be hard at all to do, they great engines as well if well set up and looked after, keep is updated with the progress

Cool sounds like you's are on the same wavelength as me.

Yeah I don't think I'm gonna have to do alot of fabrication to tbh. Custom engine mounts and gearbox mount and a 1 off propshaft.

I'm also going to modify the rear beam to 0 degree camber making it true trailing arm
I'll be using 4x4 LSD arms and beam . Cos I don't like camber!

Mmmm 5pot st lump thatll be a nice one to do


Yep I'll keep it updated I'll get a few pics soon with how it stands .

Fair play, but it does seem like a very strange approach.

Would only make some sense if you already had all the bits, ie a donor car.

But I know I sure as hell wouldnt bother. Just not enough gain or benefit to make it worthwhile.

I know what you mean mate but the shell and engine are penuts, if they weren't so cheap i wouldn't bother doing it either.
I have enough spares to build up a sierra. Plus Itll keep me away from the missus and her soaps
