they are awesome lil car, i really like the City's.

all the turbo models are imported, i dont think there're alot of conversions running around, it could be rather costly to fit a D in it, and may require quite some customs works.

check out www.cityturbo.com (http://www.cityturbo.com) :thumbsup:

no engine is a basic dump, you're going to have to fab new mounts, make sure u got a cable gearbox.

The cross member will have to be modified.

anything (well most) is possible, wth the right amount of money.

imo, the city turbo engines are sufficient, if u're able to find a replacement engine for your body, tat shud be the most cost effectiive option as well.

i used to have a proT non-turbo, that was fun enuf to drive considering how light the City is, and seriously reliable!

try and pick up a dual carb EG motor, that would be the easiest conversion for you

i doubt you'll find the 'original' motor mate - i'd love to find the original ZC for Bandit - but thats long gone i bet.

mmm... what about a turbo D16??? ZC motor? :P

I know someone who might be up for selling their turbo kit - all you'd need is a ZC/D16 donk!
