you're gonna have to tell me how you did this or where you got it from.

well i cant its a secret project me and my budy is working on for a rb20 :D:O

just kiden it was EZ i took a rb20det intake and cut it of right under the fuel. made six adapter plates for the thottle bodies and welded them on and bolted the throttle bodies on them. the throttle bodies are off of 90s toyota levin (corolla)

that is it! im building a rb20e bottom end with a rb20det head and going to run the throttle bodies open like six carbs hoping to get about 10.5 compression out of it and it will be in a cefiro

This looks absolutely nuts^^^^

Why not use a RB30 bottom end instead of the RB20DE? You will make ooodles of power and torque from a an N/A RB30/26 and that throttle body setup!

the rb30 was not made for the japan market and if u find one it cost a lot and the rb26 is up in price too rb20de can get for free all the time

Over here in Aus you cant give them away :P . RB30 is a common motor here. They are renowned to still have hone on the inside of the bore after 400,000km/s or 250,000miles, and still perfect to rebuild or I have heard of people pushing it hard on 20yr old stock bottomends.

You could get a bare block and the bare necessities sent over to the US for fairly cheap, I reckon. Would certainly be a tough motor in a cefy and N/A too.

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
