Toyota Soarer 2.5

[sillyolgit]

hello

and a good morning to all you young men,

can anyone confirm the existance of the 2.5 soarer deisel

i have heard that one has been developed and is undergoing testing in the uk :o

and even retains the original twin turbos

various sightings have been made in the london area, but obviously is being kept under tight wraps

this , in my opinion would be the bees knees, performance coupled with the economy of a diesel engine

and the torque must be quite substantial

i am sure the company resonsible will be set to make a killing

i for one would be the first to put my deposit down

now where do i send it

Hi and welcome :D

You can send your deposit to me if you like :D

Are you in prison :o

Dont know of any diesel engins ones mate

[sillyolgit]

hello gord

sorry thats my "strange" sort of humour

there is a blue 2.5 soarer that runs on diesel

a first hand witness actually saw the car being filled with diesel

and when questioned the owner was rather abrupt and refused say anything about it

i cant believe the petrol engine is able to run on diesel without a lot of work

but it did, and evidently it roared away

[Bazza]

dont think that you could convert a petrol engine to run on diesel ;)

are you sure it was being filled with diesel

in my opinion you dont buy a soarer to have an economical car

maybe the owner was trying to save a few pennies

[sillyolgit]

oh yes it was diesel allright, no doubt about that

i realise the soarer is a sports car, but a penny saved here is a pound spent there (as my old mother used to say)

surely it would take a foolish person to try and run a petrol engine on diesel, without it being converted previously

this is causing a huge debate on the scorer forums, the hunt goes on !!

[peter026]

Mmmmm.............Diesel, now that would be interesting. No doubt every LOC member will be keeping an eye open for this phenomenon. I await with baited breath for news of any sightings of said car.

Oh, and welcome to the club :D

[Gord]

Is he in any sort of car club that you know of ?

[peter026]

Is he in any sort of car club that you know of ?

Who?

[Gord]

Who?

Did the car have LOC sticker in the window :D not to many members have that sort of car, diesel powered :D

[Dave-Ellen]

It appears the latest Prolex-UK project has been uncovered

[Gord]

:o :o :o :o :o :o was it you then :o :o hope it did't cost you to much to put right :D bit of a waist of diesel mind :o

Pic's please :D

[Dave-Ellen]

when the project is finsihed :winky:

[LennyLexus]

:o :o

I'll be watching this space

[Dave-Ellen]

As will I -------the first test drive was only 2 meters in duration

[Bazza]

As will I -------the first test drive was only 2 meters in duration

and used a tank of diesel in the process

not sure it will catch on

easy mistake to make dave

as you know i nearly did the same :D

good job you noticed before any damage was done B)

a word of warning

BP ULTIMATE is 97 ron

unless of course its ULTIMATE DIESEL !!!!

BE WARNED THE PUMPS AND LOGO`S LOOK THE SAME

;)

[Dave-Ellen]

diesel soarer is back safe & sound :D converted to run on petrol as the experiment didnt work.......

uprated fuel pump slipped in tho :D

your messages passed on barrie :D little flyer whisked away :D

[Monster-Mat]

i think this topic is a joke.............

its not economically possible to convert the 1jz to diesel....it would be easier to just drop a diesel engine in

[Bazza]

a joke !! ........really..........no flies on you mat

the explanation is:

dave mistakingly filled his soarer up with diesel

kami let the cat out the bag

the laugh was, i had just almost done the same thing

[Dave-Ellen]

went to test drive a 2003 MR2 for kami y/day..........

Blokey gets in to start it up....car not happy missing popping belching out smoke...............could'nt sort it so off we went...............thinking to look elsewhere........

He phones back 2 hours later.......can he'd used for petrol had had diesel in hence reluctance to run..........

Must be a new fashion !

Why on earth would you want to turn a monster like that into a car with the equivalant speed of a local taxi? I have a Toyota Soarer 2.5tt (Rare manual) with 350+bhp and cannot understand why anyone would want a diesel version!!!! If you want an economical car get yourself a HKS f-con V Computer fitted - adds power, speed and efficiency. Please don't consider downgrading the car just add a few bits to help with the economical side of things.
