Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

Dude no one was "GANGING UP ON YOU YO, G-G-G-G-G - Unit, Im from the streets MAYNE!"



Your the one who got all worked up bro... Something you've gotta learn... Is to admit when you are wrong.

I just did in another thread. RX Speed pointed out to me I was wrong about BHP... I thanked him for the information, and payed no thought to it.

Just chill dude...

Crazy 88's Touge Masters BITCH.

Btw, Crazy 88s suck! Remember, Hanzo steel.....
Ok, I'll let you in the secret. The only misconception I made was that retro 350Z look of V35/R35 GTR. Otherwise, it's pretty obvious that G35 are the new family Skyline series. But you calling me a foo' for nothin, that ain't tight yo. Btw, the dribbles above and few of the posts were jokes, I thought you would've figured it out.

Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

... *ackward silence* ...

Im having a hard time figuring out whats going on in your head... Your thought process is... Entirely too advanced for my ghetto-slanged mind to grasp the concept of.

I am simply, and utterly blown away by your severe, and present omniscient state-of-mind.

What else can be said... But WOW.

You have humbled me... I bow before you O' great one. Allow me to do thy bidding...

... Ok back to normal.

What the fuck are you talking about Z Fanatic?

Listen to Frodo, Sam, little hobbits shouldn't think too much.

Dude relax, I was fucking around. But I am amused by your unconditional homage, keep it up.

Hey, I didn't get to see your renderings of R35, got one for upload?

Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

What are those pesky Pm's for I wonder...? LoL

Well this thread has gone to hell... lets get back on topic! OF THE ENGINE YOU GUYS VOTED FOR... WHY DID YOU PICK IT? WHY DO YOU THINK THIS ENGINE IS THE SH-T? Are there any domestic-motor loving 'tards out there? Lets make this interesting! Any and all preferences apply!

you guys are wierd.

YEA! G-G-G-G-G-G UNIT BITCH! I'm from the street!

G-G-G-G-G-Get your ass out of the car! Sell crack, I hear thats what they do around here. Obligetory Dave Chappelle quote..

Anywayz, Sam, it is my understnading that you own your own company and have worked on many, many, many Zeds in your time. So, if you would (and anyone else who can help), whats the least expensive way to go here?

Lets say, start with a 2+2 NA. Engine swap to a VG30DETT and upgrade to 700 rwhp, go the whole 8 yards with it (going 9 yards would be ridiculous, i'm no talking about a 7 sec AutoX'er). Make the car an amazing AutoX car. OR engine swap to the RB26DETT and do the same thing. Also, what would be the average time to do both engine swaps for either an expierienced Pro or an average mechanic?

Thanx a shiot Load Maye's

I hear the new VQ is pretty good. It hauls ass! I might get a '04 Murano with Xtronic CVT and 6 speed manual shifter, so I liked how VQ performed after today's testdrive. Suspensions are awesome.

Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

I have'nt bothered to read this entire thread because it so far seems pretty stupid. Arguing over what type of motor. Who cares, to each his own, whatever makes you're boat float.

Personally I would someday like to see a massaged LT4 or LS1 small block under the hood of my 87 Z with a custom geared Borg-warner T-56 backing up the power. But dreams are dreams and I only hope they can come true for evereyone.

In the meantime, drive it like you stole it.

Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

that is funny, bray goes on about how it is stupid to talk about what motor you want in a z and then in the next paragraph, he talks about what motor he would like in a z, sorry if it was just me thinking that is funny.

anyways, keep domestics with domestics and imports with imports. we have already discussed this earlier in the thread, so that is all i am saying about that.

Re: Poll: The Ultimate Engine Swap!

Shit, I had some guy tell me I should have dropped a 351 into my first Zed... I thought it may have been fun? Haha

And Karthalin.

Yea bro. Check your PM...

And Z Fanatic. NO, I have about 3 ideas that are getting patented, and or copyrighten at the moment... Try this:

Come up with a REALLY kick-ass idea... And then tell it to someone. See how awkward it makes you feel. Haha

Back on topic:

RB25DET for your dorifto application would be best Via. In my opinion.
