- Some of you may recall my post of a couple of years ago regarding my finding a TR-6 housing a turbocharged 4 out of a Merkur XR4ti. While not a great job, the conversion was passable, but the owner (

- Ohmigod! I have an Xr4ti and I love my TR6 for the stump-pulling torque of the six. The Merkur is hard work to drive fast with no torque and no power until the turbo spools up. Our Nissan Stanza can

- This reminds me of the poor fellow that was trying to sell his Spitfire here a while back. It had a Mazda rotary transplant and he spent $$,$$$ doing the conversion. He took quite a bit of abuse over

- Wierd. I recently bought an '85 XR4Ti to replace my old CRX, and I've had a '70 TR6 for 6 years. VERY different cars to drive. You _really_ have to stay on the revs to go fast in the Merkur (but it

- The obvious question is WHY? The TR6 motor, properly tuned and cared for, is a nice piece of work. Cam and carb work fix the power situation nicely, after all the British version, with the same basic
