My minds made up Celica Gt4 is the donor :). That's also another thing that made me go with the Celica, the "flat four" in a scooby seams that its going to take loads of room width ways so less room for all the intercooler pipes and what not.

Ok so here's the list and outcome of my search. Gt4 Impreza Clio Wheel base| 2540mmEEC 2520mm 2472mm 2535mm non EEC Lenth| 4420mm 4520mm...

Be damn that's quick!! Although that's in a straight line, be good to see what it handles like round corners.

Check this out surprisingly simillar apparently http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?613598-Rooby-Clio-172

Yes i want to be different so im swaying towards the celica but that's it parts is the main thing that keeps me thinking impreza :banghead: Although i am going to buy a hole car as a donor so thats not the problem it's mainly aftermarket upgrades.

Awesome mate!! I'm thinking of doing the same job to my clio in a few months time, out of the full list of 4x4 Turbo cars i've narrowed the list to 2 cars a impreza sti or a celica Gt4 st205 so weighing my options between both at mo. Good luck am keeping a close eye on what 's happing with yours.

Cheers for all your comments guys, it's not going to happen for few months (need to find a massive unit) but my minds made up, so my options are between 2 cars either a Subaru impreza sti or the celica gt4 st205.

The money i'd spend on prepping the engine for the supercharger/running gear for 400bhp will be the same or as close to fitting a awesome conversion anyway. ;)

Im not looking to go stupid BHP guys, I was thinking of 350ish or close to 400

yes i seen the car in person i sold a dimma kit to the owner (tim) he was restoring it back to its former glory. here's the pic's i taken when i was there.

hard work getting two engines to run the same as each other i heard. im not sure

GOING TO BE EPIC!!!! funny enough been thinking about doing a 4x4 turbo conversion myself :), cossie's are expensive so i started a thread asking people's thoughts about the engine and here i am cheers marinemackay2003 :) Subscribed.... Good luck with the build

That's serious money would be cheaper buying a cosworth lump lol LOL

The GT-4 lump seams massive, as for the MR2 it's rear wheel drive and rear engine'd so not really ideal. i already know of a renault 5 Rwd fireblade for sale :)

Are talking about a mk1 dimma cosworth? if so it was done in 1996 by max power.

Cheers Gaz

will look into it ain't that engine out of a Galant VR-4?

cheers mate will read it now :)

also thought about that but ain't the "flat four" design a little wide for the clio engine bay?

Hi all Been thinking about this today but cant think :(, so has anybody seen a 4x4 turbo conversion in a clio ph2 before? if you had the choice what would you fit?. obviously my first choice would be cosworth but a engine alone is rediculous. cheers

Pmsl, I'd suggest if you want to get the most horses out of gray you should defo upgrade them daps lol. Will be watching this like a hawk waiting for the big day when you announce what engine your fitting. :)

^ yes would be pretty sick running a 4x4 cossie lump :). Won't take much work now its a bare shell Neil ;), a few alterations to the bulk head,exhaust tunnel and custom shaft's/prop.

Cheers Dude

Ah gutting electrics ain't my thing so not sure on mine. Balls to it i'd rather speed money on the propper stuff so should that link above for the earth cable do or what would you sugest i need as in amp's/size wise. Cheers

True didn't think of that lol Cheers

I've just ordered 4 mtrs of 40mm Possitive cable aswell as 200amp ANL fuse with holder, but i'm confused with the earth cable is this ok or not...

After reading gray's post Was going to say, he already has the new engine. :hail: Are you going to spill the beans as to what engine's going in guys? Or isit a surprise?

Happy days seems like a propper lads day out good work guys :). So now the engines out are you making a table out of the engine block or making a f4r gocart lol As for the replacment engine what are you fitting then? I think it will be Vtec,silvia or cossie maybe a zetec, can't think of...

Cheers guys It will be some time before i get round to it so will ITB's with omex 600 be ok to remove the immobiliser or is there a separate brain? If it is separate could i remove the standard immobiliser setup and fit a cat 1 toad alarm (and just use that fob to lock/unlock) to over come the...
