[makeitfit]

Right oh, Crimbo engine project in the system.
The old girl has been worked almost to destruction and so I'm going for some extra OOOOMPH
In essence, TDi replacement engine, fit manual pump from Nissan Elgrande 3.2 as it has a 13mm plunger :sly, reprofile cam .
Any other valid mods you guys can think of that aren't bank breaking ?
Discuss :naughty

Would it physically go in :nenau

 

[solarman216]

biggest question, would it mate to the gear box, Rick

I'm trying to keep it simple guys and show what the 2.7 could do.
My turbo is modded already to suit LPG An engine swap like this is basically a good day on the tools.
Modding engine mounts and gearbox adaptors etc is not on the cards for the rest of the Black Pearl development :sly
Plus everything Elgrand is stupid money

 

[Madmark]

As far as I know it's basically same engine but could be wrong

Yes it is and apparently fits straight onto post 96 gear boxes. Only 150 bhp though and all fly by wire.
Going to plough on with the devil we know, as everything 3.2 is silly money :doh

I think you're doing the right thing mate :thumb2

I'll agree on the 3.2 stuff being silly money as I'd been quoted £200 for a rot box alternator from one, got another plan there though now :naughty :naughty

The 2.7 is a solid lump capable of well over 200BHP so I've been told :bow

Chatting to my E pal in Italy and his 2.7 is at 240 bhp :naughty

I may have to start using proper jungle juice though if I'm pushing that kind of power
