Because they are waaaaay to big.



You won't get any shit from me about ls1 in a skyrine Nick. Living it Gayton tho, that's another story.



A mate had a NA zed, spent many, many thousands doing a vh45 conversion (and 2 years). Sounded awesome but was still slow. So he pulled that out and went vgTT. Cheaper and faster.



Since parted it out and is now talking m3CSL or lotus

That actually makes sense, but why not a more modern Nissan v8 engine?

They don't lope around like cammed up LS's do.

And the other reason was I just simply didn't want one, I don't know anything about the motors whereas info on ls building is plenty full and parts are cheap.

And to me nothing sounds better than a big cube natro v8 screaming up near the redline or shaking around at idle :jizz:

Haha aww but mike it's no fun unless it annoys people lol.

And that's the other thing the quad cams are massive same as with the 5.4 boss motors in falcoons

What about cost and time taken to make swap though?

Yep same idea as old bud that did the 1uz swap into a supra. He came to a happy laps with us once and the thing sounded sooo tuff like an f1 v8 mix. So I was naturally a little hesitant of lining him up, but when play time was over and I got a run down the straight with him I had about 3 1/2 car lengths over the start finish line and mines dead stock apart from the exhaust and the built box

Up near redline at 4500rpm lol

Yeah mates vh45 had extractors (custom so they fit lol) and exhaust and nistune and it would've had about 200rwkw.

Took about 6 months start to finish which I didn't mind cause I was on my ps still anyway and I'd just blown up my gearbox so the car was just sitting there.

Cost wise, it's only money... And the attention it gets and the "WTF is in that thing" reaction when people hear it fire up is just priceless.

Yer mines just got a custom extractors a crappy mail mafless order tune and basically a 3inch straight pipe and a dirty pod filter sucking like a 2 dollar whore off the intake pipe lol. Through my auto with the bigger stall I'd imagine id only have about 200rwkw....

For now

You still running stock cams Nick?

A friend of friend had massive cams in his. Was so bad that in top gear on highway at 110 he got chopped by a stock telstar lol

Top gear roll ons of course ;)

Yer stock everything man, the motor in this trims days are numbered ;)

It's to fast to only have 180, I was chopping cars up around the 230-240kwkw mark at the drags

youve lost a lot of weight in that engine. plus you have more torque, that engine will be running like shit with a mail order tune and your bolt ons.... i have the hsv ls1, standard cats tho, with otr and full tune and that only cranks 230 atw.... manual.

alright maybe you have 190....

    • Nah, turn the boost up, break the gearbox, and enjoy leaving it parked for a few years while you save for a better box...
    • I see those two Stageas have the "punched 40mm hole" deregistered Japanese number plates 👍 Nice kouki group shot with the different colours too. 
    • Ended up just being a loose exhaust bolt luckily.
    • Yeah I made that post way too early, sorry I must have assumed it was bad because it's a 20+ year old thrashed shitbox lol. It was just a loose exhaust bolt. 
    • Like others have said, drop the power to give your drivetrain a % of reliability until you can up the drivetrain reliability  It isn't rocket science, build power to the weakest link with a % of safety Whilst upping the the reliability of the drive train is costly, there's no point in having the engine make big power if it keeps eating the drivetrain....ask me how I know, I had the tow truck on speed dial for a few years, and I spent huge amounts of money fixing issues and breakages that really would have been cheaper in the long run if I did it right the first time Me, I like a nice sized fudge factor, that keeps me off the tow truck
