Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
Just one more thing... (for now, im sure i'll think of more!)
Ive got a tintop, JDM with Aircon... could you do a conversion that keeps the aircon working? And if so, does that push the price up much??
Would hate to have redundant buttons! And even tho im in Scotland, the aircon is a fly feature!
Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
Keeping the AC is a piece of cake :+:
Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.

Now all i have to do is convince my pocket to bend to my will and im in there!

Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
sorry to keep harping on and that...
but im amazed (even considering the time of year) that no-one has jumped at this yet...
If im the first do i get a guinea pig discount???
:oops:
it'll be a 6speeder too if that seals the deal! :+:
Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
Yes i always do the first conversion of its kind at a reduced rate, mainly because i learn a lot in the process too for the next one.I would have thought this was a hugely popular swap to do, a nice powerful modern replacement for the 4age, but then a lot of owners still love to keep it all original, which is fair enough.
Maybe in a year or two when we have done a few the word will get out.

Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
Hi Paul, I'm really interested in this idea. More modern technology/engine: good. more revs: good. less cash: always good.
when do you think you'll be in a position to start the first one?
Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
Hi mate, that really depends on our current workload, we have a big shipment of v6 engines coming in that have priority at the mo, so i will need to sort everything out and work out the schedule over the new year.
Worst case would be a few months into the new year if you said you definately wanted to go ahead now, to give me enough time to source a decent front clip and all parts needed. :+:
Re: Mk1 2zz-ge conversion interest.
spring would be good for me, I don't mind cycling or driving around in the mini while it is done once the weather starts drying out :)
what do you think about the brakes? I'm assuming stock brakes are going to be ok because it's not a stupid amount of power going in?
