Barra Conversion
Converting your 4x4 to a Ford Barra engine is a popular choice for several compelling reasons, particularly in Australia where the Barra has a strong following:
- The Barra has earned a reputation as the "Aussie 2JZ" due to its inline-six configuration, strong internals, and high power potential, similar to the legendary Toyota 2JZ engine. This reputation contributes to its desirability among car enthusiasts.
- Many Barra engines are known to cover high mileage (600,000 km or more) in stock form without major issues.
- Barra engines can produce anywhere from 182 kW (244 hp) to 325 kW (436 hp) in factory turbocharged form, with even higher outputs achievable with modifications
