Max Headroom Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I have just been talking with my neighbour and we have a germ of an idea to take my Supra engine and put it in a trike frame. Now my neighbour builds bikes, choppers to be exact and we were wondering as a first question. Has this been done before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Headroom Posted September 8, 2007 Author Share Posted September 8, 2007 My friend did do a mini engined trike, but this is something new and we were wondering if anyone had gone down this route or knew someone who had done it. A 220bhp Supra engined trike MMMMM!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
p111ddy Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Even if it has been done before which i wouldn't know for starters. It would be something very interesting to see done. So good luck if you do go ahead with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kieren1234 Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 I was thinking of doing something like this with my spare N/A engine. I'll let you do it first and see how much its costs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garethr Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 Well, it's been done with big V8s...... Could be the first time for a 2JZ though. Here's some inspiration Mercedes V8 trike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guigsy Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 why use your engine? contact jezzy... apparently he is giving away NA engines I think a twin turbo'd trike would be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted September 8, 2007 Share Posted September 8, 2007 It could be done, anything can be done I suppose. I would of thought the engine is WAY to heavy to do it practically. A light 4 cylinder engine would probably be a better bet. HOWEVER the fact that it is a 2jz is still a damn cool idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
