vr4 engine swap

2kBlkGTP · 03-10-2005, 03:54 PM

ok this guy who wants to race me says that he has a VR4 engine swap in his 3000gt. this would have to be done with the tranny and AWD right? i'm just asking to make sure he's not BS'ing.

you dont have to have awd w/ the swap, i've never seen the awd conversion done along w/ the vr4 engine swap before, but race him and find out if he's bs'ing.

simply ask him/provoc*sp* into doing one high rpm launch if his car takes off like a bat out of hell u know he did the awd if it sits and spins u know its ff.

You can do the VR4 swap without the drivetrain, it bolts right to the FWD trans. You can also weld the center diff and remove the VCU and it will make an AWD trans a FWD trans.

Sry NightRider that wasn't me saying i wasnt from carmel, my little bro was on the comp and logged onto my stuff. hes a dick.

yeah, i'll race in a few feeks, how about the end of April or something when its a little warmer.

I gotta fix a crack in my exhaust manifold neway

do u have the VR4 swap though?

oh and uh whats "dead prez"

NightRiderGT · 03-13-2005, 09:15 AM

DEAD PREZ IS MONEY AND YEAH I GOT THE SWAP
the only prob is i bought a new c lutch and im still trying to put it in

tall skinny guy is there a way i can make my car front pozzi because i keep on spinning that one tire and its so fucking annoying. you seem to know a lot about trannies got any ideas?

Install an LSD?

2kBlkGTP · 03-13-2005, 12:19 PM

sorry bro not racing for money, I just barely have enough for gas right now. If u wanna race me at a real race track (Lebanon valley dragway) near the end of the summer, maybe i'll race for money, not that much though.

and yeah get an LSD if u don't wanna do one wheels burnouts...those arent too good for the car

The only safe way is to get a LSD, you can weld the front diff together making the wheels turn at the same speed no matter what, however this often results in loss of control of a vehicle around turns.

Also, not sure if you know what an LSD is, its a limited slip differential.
