yes its a fwd setup but could you mate a 5 or 6 speed behind it that could hold some power and drop one in a fd?

just farting around at work.. guy here has a SRT and were talkin bout my fd and his car and i wanted to be like hey i wonder lol..

 

Wow.

 

a fwd..4cyl..fd? blasphemy

 

i want you to never talk about this ever again.

 

...even after a few beers I find this idea full of fail!

 

seriously, why?

 

i take it you guys missed what i said about mating it to a RWD tranny.. i never said to make the fd a fwd car lol..

 

no, i saw that. still, why?

 

like i said this guy and i were just talkin at work he has a srt4 and i have my fd and he was like ever want to put a srt4 in it. i was like noooo but i figured id post and see whats up with it.. like i said at the beginning no real plan to do it just brain farting cause he was talking to me bout it..

i dont need to get flamed for it since i have no ambition to do it.. its just different and a topic to talk about or hate on lol.. whatever..

 

Probably impossible, not to be rude. But generally engines in a FF car are mounted sideways whereas a FR car the engine tends to be mounted in a linear fashion. This would take extensive fabrication to mount the engine and then make clearance for all your accessories plus the oil sump would probably have to be custom designed aswell. I ran into this problem with swapping a BPT into my miata since the BPT was from a FF there was just too much fabrication and customization for me to even bother.

 

i just ask cause there are much better options...an its a neon

 

yes its a neon but there motor in that thing can produce some good power! but the rest of it is a neon as you say lol!

 

if you have the money to produce a bell housing to mate the engine to a common rwd beafy tranny. Plus fabricating engine and tranny mounts.

ANything is possible with $$$ or tons of fabricating skillz.

 

It would work, just would take a could bit of figuring and welding.

 

there is fd with a 4g63 that is making 900 whp in mn. i think they are trying to hit 1000+ hp.

 

why?

 

Yes the SRT-4 motor can make good power but you would be a little better off trying it with an STi motor and even better then that would be an EVO motor.

AWD boxer engine FD??

 

i cant believe you even posted this ridiculous idea.

 

Then how about a Hayabusa engine in an RX7?
Some people have put a 1000cc motorcycle engine in the Smart cars ....... what about a Smart car's engine in an RX7?

 

Tell your friend to post on his srt4 forum about doing a rotary swap in his car. besides, that would be a waste of a rotary engine on a neon.

 

/sigh

I hate this forum sometimes... well... almost any time I look in this sub-forum.

On-topic; You could likely fit an SRT-4 engine in the engine bay of any rx-7, with some creative mounts that is. Throw a drag-slushbox w/ a custom bellhousing on it and call it a RWD. Could be a very nice setup, those engines can cheaply handle a lot of power.

And now to the off-topic; like everyone else.


IF YOU CAN'T CONTRIBUTE IN A POSITIVE MANNER, JUST STFU! I'm sure I could come into at least 1 thread from everyone who posted "blasphemy" or "waste of time" etc and pull out a question to make them sound like a complete retard. They probably have some electric supercharger posts; or how do I turbo my n/a...

...long story short, this is not your car, it's not your decision. You opinion is obnoxious, and a nuesance to this spacific forum, keep it to yourself, or go post in the lounge, you damned rotard trolls.

 

I have a friend working on a 1971 Dodge Colt GT with a build SRT4 motor(yes Colts are rear wheel drive)The car will run a automatic trans and the adapater was made by North caribean transmission,car is almost done just needs to finish some plumbing,wiring dyno and then to the track.

 

But, why?
