Thanx man, I'm dreaming of what I can do to it this year.

Humm............................Maybe that 6A12 Twin Turbo I was looking at a few years ago?

With some design and homework it might fit!

Wouldn't that make a Cordia a little bit front-end heavy.? I think the VR-4 engine is more than capable of making a cordia chassis twist. It would certainly make it unique though....or more unique.

I reckon the engine would fit.

Have a problem with the rear turbo hitting the firewall.

As for weight, can't be much heavier, but my god it would rev something quick and for a long period, as long as I got the right gearbox. :lol:

Hi Bitza,

Very Nice car you got there.

How is your gearbox holding with the VR4 conversion?

Ive had no problem since a rebuild, will shift smoothly up the box, but the only major drawback is down gearing the box, takes a little while to engauge.

Obviously need time for the syncros to align.

Besides that the box is strong.
