Really? does it auto shift even though its on CTV? that i must try.
i think i have another plan. im thinking of picking up a 97 type R engine at a wreck for about $2000, then maybe trying to plant that into the jazz. the type R engine will do about 160kw, but with power to weight ration of a jazz, it'll be unbelieveable. my only concern is if a type R engine will fit on a jazz since the jazz has such small engine bay..

yeh, it autoshifts whenever u try to redline/overrevv try it, its fun 97 type R engine? i doubt it would fit, but check it out that would be mad, then u can offically be the first "jazz type R" Really? does it auto shift even though its on CTV? that i must try. i think i have another plan. im thinking of picking up a 97 type R engine at a wreck for about $2000, then maybe trying to plant that into the jazz. the type R engine will do about 160kw, but with power to weight ration of a jazz, it'll be unbelieveable. my only concern is if a type R engine will fit on a jazz since the jazz has such small engine bay.. spoom, could u find out more details about the car for us?

k20a conversion would cost around 20k
might as well sell my jazz and top off 20k and buy a real type r

Just add labour. I'm sure CAPA could also do something locally. www.capa.com.au. A Garrett turbo or Paxton supercharger fits up to the Jazz nicely.

K20A engine alone is already 8k labour will be another 4 to 5 maybe more!
so i say around 15k for a K20a conversion

yeh exactly.. its not worth getting k20a. well thats my thoughts after seeing such price. $1500 for turbo from thailand? thats a good price. and expect to pay another $1000 for labour and another few hundred for ecu. so under 3K for turbo.. that sounds reasonable. might think about that.
