3.8L Supercharged V6 into Hiace Commuter.

[grotty100]

Thanks for your suggestions hiacehunter! Please let me know how your Commuter goes when you drive it! At the moment I'm fitting Hilux 2" drop spindles on the front, upper ball joint is a pain in the arse! The later Commuters have a cast iron upper wishbone with a non-removeable ball joint which is a different size from all others. Also sorting out the rear discs (Supra) and calipers (GTST).

Speedo: Commodore gearbox with HSV instruments- electric speedo.

The Canadian tube tailshaft: great idea, I'll look into it.

Radiator: my Hiace is already diesel so radiator is OK.

Electrics: already spoken to sideshow about cleaning up wiring and fitting HSV instruments etc.

Fuel: Premium Unleaded.

Exhaust: 2.5" duel system with crossover.

With lots of mods the supercharged ecotech v6 is capable of 450 horsepower. Engine management is the key to making the engine run properly!

Vote No2 for the UZ.

Keen to try this insert with a townace or similar.....if a drivetrainless one appears for the right price one day.

Vote No3 for the UZ, doing it right now actually.

I've passed the left hand exhaust over the end of the box so i can drop the box out easy WHEN it "expires"
