wow, tops work mate.

hey guys, how weak is the stock 550cc MB engine? ive spotted one and am looking to freight it to SA meaning i cant take it for a test drive! what mods can i do to power it up a bit, nothing too expensive as im looking to ditch the engine after 6 months or so

thanks for the good insight mate. ive sourced a MB but its in NSW, im in SA. the price is good, but freight is a killer, any suggestions on freighting companys, or better ways of transporting cars? he said its prob a bit far fetched taking a 550cc MB for a road trip that far! a good mate of mine had...

ok, broaden the search. anywhere in OZ, rolling or with any engine! come oooooooooooooooooon!

can someone drop me a line if a cruise goes ahead? i dont have a MB but id love to have a gander, maybe someone has one to sell???!!!

i have come into a bit of money... a can stretch the budget a little further for the right car...! anyone selling?!?!

hey, im looking for a straight MB pref with an 800cc already fitted but not essential. would like the car running and drivable. mainly looking in adel and melb but can travel. i would like to keep it around $1500 - $2000. please help!!!!

thanks
steve

oh... boy is my face red.... im going to call every jap place in SA to see how avaliable the alto engine is, well go from there. the 800 will do for now but knowing me and my record with cars it wont stay too standard for long on another note brayden, i noticed your a moderator, i sent you a PM abou...

i'll sit on this info for a while, but ive always wanted a MB so i will prob try and find one after my bimmer is sold. the 800cc engine seems to be ok, how will it be on an open road? in 4th, will it sit on 100 - 110 without sitting on redline?! edit: under my name it says stock kei, some people hav...

no, no, its not at all mate. its alot better hearing it here instead of at a workshop after already buying the car! well, the 800cc might even get a look in... after all the car is only 700 odd kilos! still, a 5 speed would be nice, does the alto 5 speed have an adaptor plate or will it require a cu...

im listening...

ok, well how available are these engines? with a higher lower compression head, will an alto turbo setup work on the 800?

also, im not a fan of a 4 speed, what 5 speed will link up?

alto is not an option! im def hung up on the esky on wheels. ok, ok well after alot of looking the alto engine or frot cut sounds hard enough to find! looks like the 800cc engine will be it if anything... ok, what model MB came out the the 800, or is the 800 a conversion? is the power from the 800 e...

thanks brayden you've cleared up alot of issues ive had going around the ol skull. Im not expecting anything like my RX's, yes the performance and handling was remarkable but so was the amount of money i invested in them! ive sold all my cars and looking to buy a house so this is the reason behind w...

thanks for all this info... it sounds like its either a slow MB or no MB at all now. i have been a V8 junkie (VL V8) then a boost junkie (RX3, RX7 S5) now i settled down into a BMW but its gotten boring so an 800cc wont cut the mustard! im guessing it would be just as hard to turn the cap enging int...

ok, well, im really glad i joined this forum! knowing VERY little bout FWD cars esp suzukis its great getting info from people who know. lets put it this way. i want a daily driver with some power to boot. i need to get round town but still travel country too so i think the 550 or even the 800cc wil...
