so i was just thinking of a project track car and i stumble on gen 1 mini with honda vtec engine swap and all wheel drive from crv.  i'm thinking since i have a 99 toyota rav4 5spd that was thinking of getting rid of because its got too many body rust, so it got me thinking and look all over the web for mini with this combo conversion but couldn't find any is there anyone that has conversion kit for toyota engine & drivetrain?  or do i need to do similar thing like the project blinky?

Blinks it is..

But if you manage I have seen a mr2 turbo engine in a mk1 rav.......would be something else...

Ever done anything like that before?

Measure wheel base(wheel centre to wheel centre then you will know what hassle your looking at..

If it differs from the mini your looking at shrinking/extending prop shaft or shrinking /extending the body
