Agar aap k engine bay main jaga hai tau araam say koi bhi engine dal saktay hain but i dunno bout mark II but i noe a guy who has a 3.0 v6 engine in rolla

[NoS_1]

what model is the rolla,and where is it at?

[aridsoul]

Some guy in peshawar transplated a Cygnus V-8 Quadcam engine in a 70's Celica. Celica's hood is almost same in length as Mark II's so it can be done. The Cygnus engine costs around 150,000 to 170,000.

Hey toyopat,it's been a while.Ya bro,want enough power to make the front wheels lift up,kinda like that Dodge charger in "The fast and the furious".

[psyb0rg]

@ Nos a simple V8 cant do that. it has to be really powerful. ull need to get it supercharged or sumthing. and ull need a new transmission and a good chassis to sustian the torque. these are just the 'upar se' things. a lot of work needs to be done to produce enough power to lift the car. and it isnt possible in pakistan, as high performance parts, especially for V8s are not easily available...

@PSYBORG
Yaar aisey hee bol raha tha,I know u need more than 900hp to make the car's front wheels lift up.

[spectra]

u can accomodate a V8 is Mark II but suspension on that car is horrible. It wont support the engine and cannot give u the required handling and performance

[NoS_1]

what if i change the suspension spectra bhai?

[NoS_1]

spectra???

[NoS_1]

Where did all the experts go?

[NoS_1]

@NOS

If you don’t want to through your precious money in trash then don't go for any project with that old Mark-II.

As per @Spectra comments suspension is horrible. You wont find new suspension or even used in scrap markets.

2nd thing the bay of Mart-II will not support a V6 or a V8 engine, you have to go through a lot of cutting all over.

I have seen one recently swapped with 3C Diesal Turbo, car is still under construction and no chance for quick rehabilitation. Even for 3c there were a lot of engine mounts moved here and there.

Look for any old celica or any car other then Mark-II 1973

[NoS_1]

hmmm,i would look for an old celica but would be hard to find cuz i've seen one in black and one in blue(which was totalled) , in which other car can i accomodate a V6 or V8 into?
