sell FD for t2 fb?
well what do u guys think?
should i sell the FD and buy a FB and swap a t2 motor in it?
I'm thinking about 450rwhp would be okay on low boost.
i dunno i need oppions...
oh yeah can it be done for $6k? the entire car/swap project...

450rwhp would be pretty insane in a 1st gen, remember they are a good bit lighter than a 3rd gen. The motor swap could probably be done for a few thousand, getting 450rwhp I think would cost a bit more than that though, but if you can pick up a bunch of parts used for cheap. A problem I would be worrying about would be traction. I am sure you will have to do some work to the suspension/fender flairs/ etc. to keep your car under control. Not to mention rims and tires will cost you at least $1000.

I'd figure it'd cost more than 6k for 450rwhp...
450rwhp in a 2200lbs car would be fun

Think that could put me into the 10's?

... wow... *thinks of all the things you can break when you're launching at 11K from a huge J-Bridge*
lol, my dad used to race RXs that put out about 300-350 and they ALL had problems with random things exploding... not to mention the motors
my mom twisted a driveshaft in her RX3 one time, it was interesting

And when i go to do that project (dont think i ever said i was doing a 20b) It wouldn't be in that FD...
Why do you care, you scared to get beaten by a 1st gen
My bro has a 85 GSL-SE with a TII. I think he went Large Street Port on it then is right now running a TO4E. He still needs to dyno tune it but will be running 350-400. It is fast. He just drove back from Nevada and got stopped in Idaho 2x for Illegal exhaust. I guess you have to have stock exhaust in Idaho??? Oh well. He has Washington plates so I don't think they cared that much.
