RobMacs Forged/Sleeved B18 'Going Turbo' Glanza V

[Socks]

I don't think people have beef with Honda engines there great. I think peoples beef is Honda and Toyota is competition. and putting a Honda engine in a Toyota is like admitting defeat. Or, turning up at a car cruise in a Volvo estate and caravan....

You just don't do it

Imo, 2ZZ-GE would have been the conversion to do. Some of them produce big power boosted and you keep it within the Toyota family

[RobSR]

Not what I would of done but fair play for doing something different!

[maddox710]

Better than putting, say a ford engine in

[jimlols]

If it works it works; can't argue when you see the power figures!

[GlanzaJim]

What is wrong with this?? A vtec engine in a glanza 170hp standard but with boost and forged 500 bhp + in a 850ish kg car. Cant go wrong. love the idea!!!!

[Glanza Mac]

Keep your inputs coming, enjoy seeing the comments :-)

I know what you mean matt but I am fond of Honda engines and I know someone who could do it so I thought Yeahh why not haha

I hope the figures do become impressive

[TurboTobz]

Mmmmmmmmm. Stuck to this thread like glue

[Ollieh17]

I agree, a lot of respect for the idea and committment. But in my view want a honda engine buy a honda. And a toyota for a toyota engine! Good luck with the build though bud

[Glanza Mac]

Too many idiots buy civics and every man and his dog had an ep3 haha, I love my glanza but hate the hassle of a 4e but love a Honda engine.. I had to do it haha

Rob.

[Ollieh17]

Hats off to you for having the balls to do something so different, this is epic and will most definitely go down in Starlet history.
