hey

whats a good east-west mounting turbo 4 pot from about 1.3-1.8??

thanks

also, i dont want any sh!t about the four potness. its for a mini that needs a decent engine AND back seats (where a v8 would go if i wanted one). i want it in the engine bay

could you go a FWD sr20det, or is the capacity an issue?

what about a b18c7? i think thats the aus spec integra type r motor.

**delcowizzid** · 22-10-2009, 02:51 PM

i think a na motor would be more fun in such a nimble little car opposed to turbo motors. i'd go the integra type r motor, would be nuts!

just my 2c

thanks.. i want to have a DET engine just for something new, well to me, can you make a north-south engine east-west?

**VKCOMMO** · 22-10-2009, 03:16 PM

v-tec might be nice but i sorta want a nissan one cause i know that they are reliable

**LoveB** · 22-10-2009, 04:06 PM

My mate has an older all motor mini. B18C5 Type R powered. Spins the wheels in nearly all the gears lol

As for reliability he has no problems with it.

another mate has a turbo k24 with 714fwhp daily driven lol

Toyota starlet or a charade turbo motors are your best bet - has been proven to fit, you can even buy a subframe to fit the starlet motor, Check AUSMINI forums for more info

MZR Mazda, it's what most Caterhams use, same family that's in the Mazda 2 3 and Ford Focus and Fiesta

**Pub247** · 23-10-2009, 07:00 PM

yeah duratecs are awesome whack some bike 4 tbs setup and listen to them scream past 8000rpm.

Also zetecs arent bad
Another favourite of mine is the mazda bp 18 turbo motors makes some good power out of them]

Cheap and powerful cant go past toyota 4a family of motors anything from turbos to supercharged and even a killer na version all round awesome motor

**VKCOMMO** · 23-10-2009, 07:17 PM

i was going to be getting a CA18DET cheap, like a case of beer cheap with no turbo but a air to air cooler, but he sold it to someone else

Does anyone know if the east-wet SR 20 DET's are easy to come by?

**minux** · 04-02-2010, 02:15 PM

pfft if its for a min go a 13bTT

i can get you plenty of em' you wanna pay though? det's come in GTiR pulsars as mentioned, and i think the blue birds came out with them east west too, but dont know 100% bout that one.

anyway, TBH SR's are not a small engine once you bolt on all the bells and whistles, i would be looking more at the starlet turbo as someone has already mentioned. itll fit much better, they still pack a punch, and they sound f'ing brilliant with a screamer pipe

you gotta remember, you gotta get a motor AND transmission AND steering all in a little engine bay. you can do it. but what a head f...k

**VKCOMMO** · 04-02-2010, 03:13 PM

so a starlet turbo or a 13bTT. what ever that is...

**minux** · 04-02-2010, 03:23 PM

YouTube - Toyota starlet 13b turbo

Thats a peripheral ported 13b turbo. Rotaries are nuts, I miss my rx2 sooo much, being able to fry the tyres at 120 km/h in a 1.3 litre engine was great fun.

There is a guy in Britain currently doing a 13b turbo conversion on a mini.

**1FATSV** · 04-02-2010, 04:02 PM

My brother has go a 74 clubman with a MG METRO TURBO set up in it. Should be on the road soon i hope.
