Hello everyone,
I bought a half cut Mitsubishi GTO in 2010-11 and decided to do the unthinkable and install that into the Magna.
Took nearly 8 years and required scrapping a 4 Cyl TR Magna (first attempt at the conversion) to make this work!
The start of this conversion began at a time when my dad was going through chemo-therapy and i was hauling his ass back and forth to hospital as his full time carer.
Unfortunately my father did not survive the intense adverse affects of the chemo and he passed away in late 2011.
I dedicated this build to him even though he did not really like it , take interest in it. However i think he would still be proud that I stuck with something this long and committed to it!
Anyway here some stuff about it and some photos.
