mr two Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Hi all..I have a very nice N/A Aerotop and fancy having her converted to a TT or single turbo..Can anyone tell me the cost..where to source a good engine from...and who can i trust to do it for me?..and what,if any, are the pitfalls?? Is it just a matter of changing the engine?..what about the gearbox?..or anything else?? Cheers D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Bailey Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Single turbo, 6 speed = Conversation over Source the TT Engine from Keron. And either get Whifbitz/SRD/Austec to install it for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swampy442 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Get an engine from wherever you like, but you need to have the basics like compression test/leakdown done. Auto is by far the cheapest option, and IMO the best but others disagree. Use a reputable dealer with Supra experience to do the swap, there have been some horror stories and as for cost, well complete engine circa 1500 quid plus labour, youre probably looking at the thick end of 2 and a half grand, maybe more?

Then personally I'd have a 6spd just because it makes sense to me But I love my dads auto single turbo - Absolute monster of a car Whifbitz are in Enfield,London. SRD are in Sussex. Austec are in Crawley, West Sussex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Get a good engine, good 6spd and go BPU. Best fun per £. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsia Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Having just completed this myself, for an NA to BPU TT I'd budget in the region of £4000-4500, depending on luck and condition of the engine etc. I'm still running on a W58 and have had no problems with it thus far, though I have only done 5-600 miles.

listy Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Keron can source the engine and everything else needed, and do the conversion. He did the NA-TT on my Supra a few years ago and it's going strong still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
