I look at this thing and i find myself, after admiring all the work and imagination, asking myself repeatedly...WHY?
Theres a whole world of just as affordable and far better suited engine/transmissions out there to play with...he chooses one of these little boat anchors......... WHY???

Cool car tho!

why not, the car was made quite a while ago, i would suspect before what you guys would see as far better suited engines were readily available. That and the whole thing weighs nothing and you break the engine go buy another one for 95 cents.
With using so many of the standard parts you could replace things quite easily.

Hey, that's nice! I like the idea of putting an E15ET engine into a N10! BTW, there's a guy at ZXOC forums who is doing (or planning to do?) an E15ET conversion on a N10 Coupé...

I'm afraid not. He hasn't started a thread yet about the project at ZXOC forums or shown photos, so I guess he hasn't had much time to work on it. However, I did post to him a link to your post in this thread, to give him some inspiration. 8)
