subaru conversion
Hey dudes,
I'm from Adelaide and i have a 68 beetle. I'm interested in doing a engine conversion using a subaru EA82 1.8l turbo from a the asthetically
kaput vortex. I just want to have a little turbo flat four for cruising and a bit of power (120hp or so) but I think that EJ20T (WRX) is a little nuts
at this stage (280hp + 800kg car = brown grundies).
I have a basic idea of the setup with radiator in spare tyre well but I'm not sure what I need to do to get it legally registered.
Does anybody know how to get these things legal?
Cheers people.
Here's a pic of a superbug with this coversion done. I found it here.http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Garage/1811/tech.html

Read this and you'll get a bit of an idea of what's need.

However SA rules are different, but soon they will be the same australia wide.
btw, the EJ20T has around 208HP. the STI version has 206kW = 276HP.
