To be honest mate , ive just read the thread and no one actually mentions anything about it definatley being able to be done.

There is an idea or two how it (maybe) could be done , but nothing definate.

Do you knwo of any tuners who you think could do a good job of it if they had the right idea?

 

[marcymarc]

If i were you id give somewhere like HI-TEQ , RC DEVELOPMENTS or NORRIS DESIGNS a ring , they are all ace

if its not possible - you should seriously consider a little auto starlet turbo, you can pick them up unbelievably cheap

I thought of Starlet GT Turbo but they are only fwd and much less power, do you think it would feel slow in comparison to the GTIR?

do us a favour and keep us poted on what happens mate

they only weigh 800 kg mate on a rolling start there wont be much between a gtir and a starlet, from standstill though the gtir will have it easy.

When I first got my R i was weighing up against getting a starlet, worked out you only have to get a starlet up to just over 150 brake for it to have the same power to weight ratio as a standard R.
I would buy an auto twin turbo supra if I had to do without a clutch.
