hi there. just havin a go at tryin to sort/organise a meeting with someone off here who owns a turbo'd j series to see and talk about the conversion. also be taken out in it. ideally owner must have knowledge on the conversion or carried it out themselves if poss. i can come up to them sometime soon or you can come down to me, pm me if your keen.
or try somesort of all 1.6 t 8v owners to meet up. that'de be good.
hi-spec novaneil-like engines im less keen on purely because thats too much money and time but still get in touch..

Im considering selling all the bits off my engine to do the conversion on another... Will decide by start of November.... But if I do, someone can buy what is basically 85bhp for there Nova GSi. Keep an Eye in the for-sale section. I won't be asking stupid money.

To be honest I don't think there are that many 1.6 8v Turbo owners left... They seem to keep blowing up thanks to the "NOT SO GREAT " Courtenay setup.
