Apologies Jewels not Opologies. In the new motor conversion page...

Not liking the second set of 'drop down' headings. Too far skewed to the left. Needs to be right justified. Same with the top clickable titles. Perhaps you could afford to reduce the size of the Seals/Master cylinders/bushes/Brake booster 'flashing' photo's and increase the car pictures? I would like that much more.

Just suggestions.

[jewels]

apologies fixed thanx for that

i havent added anymore drop down menus....do you mean existing menus?

al are you talking about alignment of that page or something else ?

[Dr Danger]

Yeh, allignment of the front page - titles and all drop down menus would be better alligned to the right of screen I think. The left of screen is a little too 'busy'.

[RetroMk2]

That's encouraging.

Do we have any more info on the conversion? Call me stupid - but what gearbox did he use - I can't really tell by the pics....

This is very similar to what I am doing, but mine will already be out of a RWD config car.

Cheers, Dave.

Looks like a Mk3-5 Cortina box

[jewels]

millions of these around
were in falcons and cortinas

Is there an update to this topic for the Mazda BP converion as i am currently doing one myself.

Thanks

[BIG GQ]

I'll start a thread soon as I'm currently doing a BP turbo conversion.

[FULLSCALE]

Already done but just can't get the time to post the job. Runs great and looks good

[BIG GQ]

Mine is turbo conversion (from an import mazda familia running the bigger BPD 154kw engine) and I had intended to just run it in that form with standard turbo and ECU, etc then things took a change last week and so I now have T28 roller bearing turbo, exhaust manifold to suit the T28, Microtech LT10S computer with coils and the X4 module to suit. Probably going to ditch the standard throttle body in favour of a larger one and going to ditch the standard 360cc injectors in favour of some 550cc injectors.

Crossmember has been modified and will sort some more out next week.

[BIG GQ]

Has anyone else on here done or in the advanced stages of doing a turbo BP conversion?

[Jonno440]

Is this roadworthy in qld I am looking at doing a 1.8 zetec or a 2.0/2.3 duratec into a mk2 and I just want to know my limits e.g. engineering ect. I know these conversions have been done a few times but I just wanted to know if anyone in QLD has registered one?

*edit* I am looking at doing it N/A

[BIG GQ]

Yes mate even my turbo will be 100% legal in QLD.

So nobody on here has done a turbo BP?
