Hillman Imp
 

Have a new project which will be a bit different , Hillman imp with a Impreza engine & 5 speed . Have a rolling shell of an Imp and now looking for an crashed impreza for a doner . Will be a long term project so nothing is going to happen very quickly but looking forward to building it . will put some pics up soon :)
Looking to get 350 to 400bhp out of it and to way 750kg ish with full cage.
hoping to be something like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83wR4w2T1wQ

Sounds like fun mate :D

Glad you decided on the scoob engine route, rather than from a Busa :nod: might add to the weight a bit but its something you can work on, knowing them inside out.

That's just mad but sounds fun :-D

cheers

sounds like a great project mate be cool to see it finished good luck with it.:yeah:

Sounds mental!....good on you. Looking forward to updates

That sounds awesome! Best of luck :-)

Should be a very interesting project!

That will shift CJ. ALl the best .

should be a good build cj,good luck. would love too see a mk1 escort with subaru running gear in it.

Was another thought & future project :)

That'll be insanely quick:ok:

quite a few escorts and focus shells have been done, and a friend built a Pug 206 WRC style car for rallycross...........

was then sold as a rolling shell and a certain company then claimed they did it.........

Should be interesting CJ. The biggest challenge will be getting it out of where it is now!

Yep 4 or 5 cars to move and then I can take some pics and figure out where to go with it

i know of a cheep running forester turbo if any good :)

Cheer for the thought but have been looking round and I'll Probably go with a newage wrx with coil packs plus I know they take 400bhp with out touching them .
Also not ready for a donar car yet
£1000 for a stolen recovered 54 plate on blue cycle at mo which would do every thing and sell a few bits and cost a couple hundred for a donar :)

Good man. :drive:

thats gonna be quick i had a mate who put a triumph triple in an imp and that was quick enough!
