Browsing through eBay and come across this....
Daihatsu Charade Subaru Legacy EJ20 Twin Turbo
All drive train is in includeing custom tail shaft.power steering is conected with the steering rack colum and steering wheel.It has the AWD legacey box instaled hence the reason the tunnel has to be fabricated.Not to shure the year of the engine but the car has been standing for around 1 year.Engine turns freely and seams to be in good order as perchaced from itchy barn importers.The GFB shifter is included but needs to be intaled on the tunney that is fabricated.No cable as it is hydrulic and needs to be instaled.Needs the master cylinder for this as i didnt buy the front cut just moter and box etc.Suspention atm is daihatsu with moded bottom plates to fit the legacey hubs.Major fabrication left is the tunnel.The tyer well has been fabricated and needs to be stitch welded in but its bolted in place atm.Chassis has been strengthened and spot welded into place and just needs to be stich welded in.Quick job.The dash is included but no cluster.

^Agreed, I wouldn't trust it as far as I could roll it (a gravel road with a slight incline)

haha awesome, that's my kind of conversion!
I've had similar crazy thoughts, except involving the Diahatsu Mira (smaller) car and a Mazda Rotary engine.

HAHahha, excellent. Makes me think of the Lada Niva we were going to put and Ej20T in until sense got the better of us.

looks like somone is just after the rolling shell by the questions, someone do a deal and ask for the motor
that would be a deadly quick car. i bet theres heaps more custom work to do than whats listed.

Looks like the only subie part on that thing might be the blower. I wonder what he based his turbo selection on?
