DB8-TypeR Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Looks amazing! Is there any reason you didnt go with the proven combo of Mini+B16a? Seeing as there are kits available for fitting it etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing as there are kits available for fitting it etc? tbh mate it was something different to do hondas are always done in my eyes and i have a soft spot for the toyota engine and its more of the fact that its what dad and i have been able to put together over the last 6 years thats why we have gone that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB8-TypeR Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Fair enough, it looks amazing. I was only asking as I figured it might be easier since its been done before and could even go 1800cc for even more power (not that its needed!)

AGRORB Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Looks incredible mate! I've always wanted to see a 4AGE in one, as you say, its a change from the usual Honda B-series. Just out of interest what front hubs and brakes are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
