    MR2 VS. 2003 V6?

    That MR2, it's a MKII, uses a 5SFE motor, it was used in the Corolla. Stock, they run between a 15.6-16.0. If it's a mtx, but almost all were. If it's a non turbo you have a chance. What do you have done? If it is a turbo, you're about to get your ass handed to you on a silver platter. The 3sgte...

    Hey, I've been looking lately between a few cars to purchase as a project car. And I've come down to three cars. A Foxbody Mustang, a 88-92 Camaro, or 89-93 Nissan 240sx with a SR20DET. So I am hoping to meet up with a few Mustang owners just to get a better feel for the car and see if I can...

    Jacksonville,FL area dynos?

    No, I've really been in between a few cars. A Stang GT (94 or 95), a 240 that will eventually be sr20, a BMW 325is (Maybe a 318) do a M3 S52 swap. I had settled on a Miata, but something occured and I won't be getting one so I'm starting over with the process. Really I'm looking for something...

    V8 RX-7

    I did a lot of research into this, you will need to either make or purchase a sub frame. Here's a very helpful web site http://www.hinsonsupercars.com/ They specialize in this swap, let us know how it turns out. Most people use GM 350's to retain a 50/50 weight balance though -Andrew

    GT40 intake and heads questions...

    How much power are we talking here? Enough to make you really want to spend the extra money for the GT40 Intake? I dont know of anywhere you can purchase just a GT40 lower intake to be honest, But I don't own a Stang ...yet

    Powerdyne users inside...

    I think you might have missunderstood me. :( I wasn't saying owned to that, I was reffering to Vibrant's response, not the to the quality or effeciency of the powerdyne supercharger. I really don'y know enough about the supercharger to say anything about that, in a good or negative way. I am...

    Durability of the 5.0...

    What kind of gas mileage do mild to moderately 5.0's get, granny shifting ? I've started my search, but not much luck yet. It could be a while, in the mean time I will research as much as I can about these motors and what not, basically so that I'm not a Noob when the time comes.

    Durability of the 5.0...

    That's what I've been thinking. I'm not a newbie, but I do not have the knowledge to just come right up and do a full out swap like that. With some help I could do a straight v8 swap but I wouldn't dream of a wiring harness for a while. I've never taken a motor out, the farthest I've been was...

    Durability of the 5.0...

    I just automatically assumed wiring harness with the ECU, and I don't see a single way the motor mounts would be the same lol but thankyou, I need as much information on this as I can. Do you know about the suspension, if it is different?

    Durability of the 5.0...

    I'm also searching for rolling chassis, I'm not sure if junk yards would be a good place to look or not. I'm really in a bind between swapping from a v6 to a v8 currently. From what I've gathered, the only real changes that would have to be made are as follows... 1. Engine (Crate or used 5.0)...

    V6 to V8 swap.

    Alright, I know there is a thread on here (more than one) about this, I have searched for hours and the search wont allow anything below 4 letters long, so I'm limited to "Swap" as my option. That got annoying, so can anyone give me any thread, links or information please. Thanks -Andrew

    Durability of the 5.0...

    Alright, so would it be easier for me to just put a crate motor in it soon after purchasing it? Most of the ones around here don't meet what I would called babied at all. I drove one the other day that seemed extremely under powered in third gear. Watching th Speedo, the fifth gear in my MX6...

    Loose to a cavaleir??

    Perfect shifting and launch could get a new GTS to a low 15, but that's rare.

    Loose to a cavaleir??

    the old GTS wouldnt run a 16.5, the new one runs from a mid to high 15, almost 16. Which really is not that fast.
