hahaha wait before we judge?
we are judging you on what you have shown us so far. if you dont want us to see the sketchy mounts, etc. then dont take pics of them to show us! isnt that simple? I hear ya, and interesting budget, getting pretty steep though.... I think you will need/want some very high quality tires, and FRESH ONES as this build is taking a long time. I know from experience that fresh tires are lightyears better than even year-old tires that have been stored properly. |
you guys asked for progress, so thats what you got!
|
clean build, really like the body lift kit
|
I hope to see pictures and videos when she's done. Always loved the sound out of those nissan 6cyl's.
|
i dont think i will evan waste my time posting video or any more progress for people to just say it looks like shit...
|
You are posting on a public forum. What do you think people are going to say???

i like the idea of throwing out the 13b and doing your rb. you have a lot of money into your project. just take your time and to it the best you can! good luck man |
Throw out the 13B.......to make 300 rwhp. I have to say, I don't get it.

It can handle 600 hp on stock internals and run 10s. :lol: :lol: Didn't you know all RB's can automatically do that just because of the designation?? No one get's it either. |

this might be the most ghetto motor swap i've ever seen. |

now your just going out of your way to be a dick. my guess is he bought the tech 2 sub frame and that will eliminate all the spacing issues he had?

It seems you are going to have a VERY unique car. I'd like to hear how it sounds when it's done. Looks like whole lotta work but it also looks fun! keep up the good work!

ok she runs now, but still some things need to be worked out. I had to find a bigger fuel pump for one, I will put that in today. The next thing is overheating, so Im going to try and move things around and fit another fan on the radiator, if that doesn't work I will have to get a koyo or something...
|
spal fans. thats all you need. a 12" puller and a 10" pusher.

|
post a vid... I love how these motors sound....
Interesting swap.. y not LS1?? P.s. U gotta lighten up man... like someone posted, not everybody is gonna agree with u.. As long as its what u want, Dont listen to everybody else. I heard the same type of talk just for buying a FD... And i tell u what, it was the best decision i ever made.. |
