    L200 Mira with a JB-DET conversion
    Hi everyone!
    I'm from Tasmania Australia, I don't own a Copen (Hope that's ok!) But I do own a Copen engine in my L200 TR-XX Mira.
    It's a neat conversion and is great to drive, hope to learn some more about these little motors from this site :)

    Welcome HandiGirl !

    I have to admit, I was scouring local ads and sites for the east coast looking for a little TRXX to play with - and finally gave up as they're scarce as in Oz. That's how I ended up with the Copen. A reasonable supply locally (though I had mine shipped over from Perth) and parts are plentiful if you don't mind getting the better bits over from Japan.

    I'm still looking at TRXX's for one day - hopefully if the current law re personal imports gets re passed it'll open things up for fun imports again :)

    Hello Josie,

    I guess you are talking about 660 turbo engine (y)
    Yes, you will have plenty of informations here.
    The most important think : motor oil. Change it every 3000 miles or 5000 km, choose the right on oil, price is nothing compared to a new turbo :mad:
    Have plenty of fun with your car :)
