I can't remember his user name but a New Zealand member has done a 4AGE in a bright red/orange 1000 coupe.

I don't know how you'd go squeezing the 'Z' (blower) into the engine bay, you may have to re-locate it from it's factory position - dunno...

There's heaps of photos in the Photo Album somewhere... Lemme check...

edit - here's the LINK

And HERE's more photos from him.

thanks for posting up that link does anyone know if he had to mod the trans tunnel?

Slight modifications with the round end of a hammer to make some extra pace in some spots. Only cutting that has to be done, is to move the gearlever hole back. I used a Toyota 21R gearbox with a custom cast bell. Don't know if the 21R monniker is know to you, but it's the gearbox that came with the old 2.1 and upwards Toyota Cressidas. Damn near impossible to destroy, and have seen duty in many very powerful conversions.

They do custom cast bells for this gearbox for Ford V6 essex, most Isuzu diesels, Most Nissans like CA18, SR20 and VG30 and many other makes of engine.

EDIT: having a look at the 4AGE conversion mentioned below, the supercharger is very close to the block on the 4AGZE, and doesn't stick out nearly as far as the TVIS intake manifold on that 4AGE. You should be able to fit it without relocating the SC. O and the intake manifold of the 4AGZE is also more compact than the TVIS one.
