think its been done already, i know somebody has a either a ford 4.6 or 5.0 in theirs

 

wow, i'd like to see that! Any pictures? I'm trying to convince my friend to drop an ls1 in his rx-8 when the rotary blows up.

 

Please stop trying to bastardize rotary cars.

 

you don't have to about it

 

Don't assume it'll blow so easily. Unless he's trying to blow it up of course.

 

3 words, Turbo, no tune.

 

I'm not, I just think people like you are ruining and helping keep down rotaries and rotary vehicles.

 

oh **** all that. use whatever motor you want and make the car your own. it's all good.

 

LS2 and LS7> LS1

 

i dont have any pics, but it was a white car, i saw it in a dyno thread a while back

 

yes, it would be nice to have an ls7 z06 shortblock but those things are like $15k just for the shortblock!

 

or a 20b complete for way less than that

 

^ a half-*** 20b swap

the ls7 is 500 out of the box...WITH a warranty.

 

Uh huh..

 

1 word... ignorant
Essentially any motor will blow if you push boost on a stock fuel map.

-hS

 

LS 7 is 16,000 complete with harness and computer

How many do you want, they are making 150 available through the parts dept.

 

Not just that, but massive tq and you could do a lot more to it:
3.73s in the rear, H/D cam, turbo, etc.

 

You're not going to push much boost through the LS7 on pump gas with the compression at 11:1. Porsche Boxster's run about 11:1 compression and their turbo kits will only produce 4.5psi. It's a nice power jump, but nothing spectacular.

 

well with 3.73s in the rear and a H/D cam, not to mention a bunch of bolts ons, the turno wont matter too much

 

So......... whats happening with the supra now? Updates?

 

yea, like 600whp with very few mods aren't good enough...

 

so i guess most of us were right!

beers

 

hopefully somebody bought all the parts and can throw the ren back in the car

 

Is this the RX-8 at Method? I've gone over and talked to Henant a couple times about it. The blue one, right?

 

yep,
that the one,,

could you clear this up for us???

thx

beers
