ABOUT: BP->BPT Conversion Guide
Ok I want to make this thread and sticky it at the top so we can give our new members some form of reference for the common BP->BPT conversion.
(and stop the question being asked over and over again) All those who have done the conversion can post up their dos/donts and we can all benefit from the collection. For a simple BP-BPT conversion you will need the following minimum: - Motor For the standard conversion, I recommend buying a Halfcut from Japan. This will come with motor, ecu, wiring harness, intercooler and plumbing. Any parts not used can be sold off. Cost is generally around the $2500 mark - Replacement Clutch Recommend a single plate organic HD clutch for a basic conversion. Expect to pay around $350-400. Daiken is an excellent brand although there are others. - Belts/Seals/Oils You should always replace all belts, seals and lubricants in the motor. Cost will be around 300/400 all up. - Labour Charges Any general mechanic can put do this conversion as it is as simple as remove and replace. Expect to pay anywhere upto $1000 for this. You will also need someone to wire the motor in using the standard harness. Your mechanic may be able to do it, if not any auto electrician can do it for you. This will cost upto $500 generally. This will provide you with a basic turbo conversion.
