still under construction




discussions?

 

transmission?
subframe?
steering actuator?
fueling?
electronics?
oem guages?

if i lose my renesis (past rebuilding/porting ability)
ill throw in a 1jz or 2jz since they are dime a dozen in the desert.
(i love the rotory ive owned two of them but cant get them here)

 

Let me get my popcorn while waiting for the 50/50 weight distribution fanbois to chime in

 

Nice, too bad none of these seem to ever get fully finished. Weight won't be an issue i would think but it would be easy to weigh the front and the rear when finished to find out.

 

transmission? going with the rb25 trans that came with it
subframe? surprisingly the motor sits on this subframe like it belongs there.
steering actuator? the electronic steering rack had to be replaced cause it wouldnt clear. i think the shops going with a camaro steering rack.
fueling? walbro 255
electronics? working on that right now haha
oem guages? just throwing some basic gauges in there not too worried about the stock gauges.

waiting for a balance rack for the differential but from there i believe another 2 months and she'll be alive.

 

Why this and not a 3rd Gen motor if your looking to do a motor swap?

 

I guess if it's a track car it makes sense. But no traction control and I'm not sure how an 8 will handle with a camaro steering rack.

 

I'm in to see where this goes

 

i believe someone in michigan but a rb20det in his due to the renny going out and he had that laying around

 

well most ls swaps ive seen into the 8 switched to trans am and camaro steering racks so im gonna try it out with this. going with an aem emse for fuel management
