Listed here on eBay in Tucson, Arizona with a BIN of only $3,500. Here you have a rust free 1979 MG Midget with a Nissan SR20DET redtop engine and transmission. The Nissan all aluminum 2 liter turbocharged engine is making 205 horsepower in factory configuration, as compared the 50 BHP that the Midget had leaving the factory. You better hold onto your hat!

You may, if you can want to, change out the 4 speed automatic that is installed now for a more robust manual gearbox. The list of modifications is quite extensive and include: Mazda RX7 disc brakes, with a limited slip rear end that has been narrowed, 4 link suspension, coil springs and a sway bar. The front end was converted to tube shocks with adjustable control arms.

All the body modifications have the 1st coat of filler applied. The owner states that all the welding was done with a TIG welder. This “fire cracker” rolls on new 185/55/15 Yokohama S-drive tires and new Eagle alloys. Many new parts are also included: turbo, adjustable wastegate, radiator with cooling fans, intercooler, transmission cooler, brake calipers, rotors, sway bars, springs, shocks, seats and more. It is still in need of a gas tank, fuel pump, wiring and some plumbing. The engine and transmission computers with the harnesses are included. This owner has too many projects and not enough room, so it needs to go. What are you waiting for? Do you want to go way too fast in this Midget?

Cheers,

Robert
