Twin Turbo V8 Celica GT Four
 

As requested by PaulGT2164. What a unique car, and well executed by just two guys. I love interesting engine swaps, especially when they are with a 240Z.
Hope you like the article Paul.

Wow.. I really envy people who have the knowlegde and capabilities to make beasts like this..

Amazing that dropping in a V8 and extra chassis protection was actually lighter than the original car..

Thanks for the article!

thanks desertwombat! youre the man!

WHOA! 8) :D Dude, thanks so much for this scan, that's fucking awesome!

This guy sounds really talented, what an amazing conversion...and keeping a Toyota power-plant is an extra cool feature of it too. I'd really like to see some vids of this car, I want to hear what it sounds like with that V8! :twisted:

Hey Paul, any updates on the 600hp Miata, and do you have any more pics of that Celica in the upper left corner of your profile pic? I'd really like to see them if you do. :D

yes i have several pics of the alltrac (i done alot of engine work on it, and my uncle done the interior)

the 600hp miata is still at the tuning phase, it put down 435hp on a very very rough tune, and on crappy gas running plenty rich and very conservative timing, i have the dyno sheet somewhere, it should be right at target when i get done tuning it, its just that i have picked up several more projects and been so busy getting the shop together i havent done much with it :P

Nice to hear the Miata project is going well.. 435hp in a miata must be crazy.. and you're absolutely insane for continuing on to 600hp!

Hope to atleast see a nice pic of the Miata shredding a pair of tires :twisted:

haha i will post i promise, i just dont know when , like i said i have several other projects that have taken top priority :p

the lexus V8 is beginning to be quite the pop. swap in things, i seen a rock crawler on TV with the same engine in it. now i want one to stuff in something cool

600hp in a miata :shock: :o :shock: You sir are insane, but i would love to have a ride in it. :twisted: Maybe next time I visit my home state of AZ. Is that 600hp at the crank or wheels, either way its alot for that car.

Every one I posted some vids and more pictures of the celica on the link section of the forum. http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?t=40881

should be at the wheels, other similiar miatas (albeit with less head work and different ecus) put down 590 pretty easy.

So you are saying there are other Miatas that put down ~600hp?! :shock: :shock: :D

there are a very few out there, well one other i know of hahah
