My friend has a mad stereo car but is very slow and is about to sh!t it self. He wants to put a VN 6 into it and we are just wondering is that legal to drive on the roads on P's. Also any other stuff u need for it...
thanx

it would hav 2 comply with all regulation sin place at the time the gemini was released, which means pretty much nothing, lol, its a pretty legal engine swap, just gotta get it roadworthy, if the swap is done well and nothing wrong with the gem body should be fine
there was a purple gemini wagon at easternats bout 2 yrs ago wif a vn v6 enigine the little thing ripped a mean burnout be easy as to get power from in a gemini coz they r so light another good combo for a gemini is using a holden piazza turbo engine but they might be a little hard to find 1 i have also seen a sr20det in a gemini b4
yeah there was a gemini wagon with vn motor that won the burn out comp. my friend was planing on getting a VLT lsd and cutting it down and that would help the power get to the wheels..
thanx
i think the rod shop has a bolt in cross member for the conversion. Or someone makes it, cant remember who it is.
ask these guys http://www.hotgemini.com/
someone there will know.
man rotors are the cheapest engine of all.and their perfomance is second to none in a light car.
it would be heaps easier than fitting a v6 and it would blow the doors of it too!
I came across a place that did the conversions fully engineered for.. 1500 or something I think it was. Could definately be wrong, but I think thats what it was, as already said, hot gemini would be your best bet.

there is a gemini around brisbane with a rb30 in it.
I have seen 2 unfinished project Gem's with RB30's in them, guess they ran out of money or could'nt get engineers reports on them.
Bloody owerpowered I'd say if turboed correctly.
hey bextor84 if u could find out what the companys name was that did the conversion that would be awsome, i have been lookin on hotgemini.com and all over the net.....
thanx...
