Bought a Mk3, now what?

How about electric motors :)

You won't like this but how about a d4d the 170bhp chipped for better power and fuel maybe 200bhp 6speed box good fuel economy, I know i would buy it if one was built and give it the other half.

It's never been done before as has a Prius hybrid mk3?

Make it handle and go like stink.

Subaru Impreza turbo lump.

That's a serious bargain price. From the pic it has the rear chrome hardtop brackets. Does it have the rest of the fixings, as the kits go for around £200 for people wanting to retrofit a hardtop.

I reckon find a 2zz somewhere and a supercharger with an electronic clutch. Build it, then add a huge turbo for a compounded set up. It'd be worth it for the noise ;)

I agree with the 'something different'.

Either some electric motors or a stupidly Eco engine like a modern small hatch or a diesel perhaps.

The times they are a changin' let's face it.

Eventually we will all be driving electric roller skates, so I'm all for making the most of petrol power until that day.

But in the meantime the bias is shifting, and I think you will sell an Eco friendly hybrid prototype way easier than anything else.

there is a kiwi fella with an electric sw20..gets a couple of hundred k on a charge too...

but Id rather just buy a hybrid. so I can justify keeping a car that wants to eat all the fuel in the developed world....

4 wheel drive, twin hayabusa engines (one each end)
but it probably can't be done

[Paul Woods]

Some pretty wild suggestions there! In two words, fuck diesel!

I'm a petrolhead, so whatever it gets will need to be petrol, like the impreza idea Olie....

No love for a 3s-gte anyone?
