Thought about this but never gone into any detail as yet.
The exhaust and engine management will need changing, not sure about gearbox.
If you do it let us know how you get on.

On the Dutch Bravo Forum,there is a guy who want to do the same thing.Mybe you can talk to him.

How many more are thinking of doing this! There are a few around but it will cost you £8,000 plus to have the job done properly. There was one for sale on ebay for £5k a few weeks ago after the guy spent £11,000 doing it.
Please don't post your question on the Bravo forum though as the **** take often offends

lol Nige,
Tactfully put as always
As you can pick up a decent Coupe for £4k the idea of spending £11k on a retro-fit does seem a little silly.
Now where did I hear about Marea's fitted with 2.4l engines, Brazil wasn't it....

diesel mareas are 2.4l , the TD125.
as for the turbo conversion i have thought about this many times, i think its possible but the trickyist thing will be lack of space. ever looked under the bonnet of a coupe turbo?
jam packed!
i also think the coupe has a lower compression head and better crank/rods.
uno 1.0ie RAAAWW!
