75subie Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 hi an 80 brat with a ej20 single turbo motor in it would make an awesome sleeper:brow:.i`m thinkin about it.i like the brat as it is, but driving in my brothers wrx today makes me want one, but i can`t afford one at this point, so this could be the poor mans wrx (probly could do it for under $3800)there is a guy on ebay with the engine for 850 and the pre programmed computer and wiring harness.there is another guy on there with a wrecked wrx that has the tranny, drive line, and suspention.this has probly been asked before, but has anybody ever done this?it is neat imagining it, although it would be a ton of work.you`d be hangin with the mustang GT`s in an old stock looking brat.then you ad some speed stickers on the side and gain even more horspower!any suggestions? links to the ebay items: (computer)Ebay Item number 3192237422 $1400!!! (Engine) Ebay Item number: 7939567053 $850 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorganM Posted December 10, 2004 Share Posted December 10, 2004 How about a jet engine swap out of an M1 Abrams? 1500 HP in a 1800lb car baby! I don't think the suspension would handle even the Allison transmission from the M1 OKay back on topic.... Is it possible? Yes. Do you have the time, money, and know-how to make it happen? That's the real decision you are making here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
