I have been wanting a Gt-s for far too long now but I feel that I am a true enthusiast because I like so many different cars. I have a few cars in mind all would be getting a swap or have extensive modifications done within the next year. If elaboration is needed I can go into further detail. But so far for now I will just throw the options I have out there....

Keep in mind that I love all of these cars.....


Your help is greatly appreciated...
Thanks

AE86 w/ sr20det or ca18det or f20c
or
90-96 Miata sr20det swapped
or
S13 with a ka-t or f20c
or
Porsche 944 with an Ls1
or
s13 vert ka-t or f20c

Sorry I fixed it.

And the ls1 is easily doable especially when you work at a corvette shop and if the lt1 fits the ls1 will for sure fit. The lt1 has been done a few times.
Thanks for the input.

So basically you just want to Frankenstein your ride with different car maker engines.

Okay

How about doing a whole toyota thing with a 1jz into a hachi instead.

Now that would be sick.

Out of all the options you gave, i would have to go with AE86. Always like that car for some reason! Maybe it was because of initial D? But thats my choice!

I like the F20C in the AE86, a lot...touge monster. The S2000 is already a touge monster though.

the one j is way too expensive for what it is, i still think 86 with f20/sr.

s13 would be second

the miatta would be second.

and the porsche would be last

Im serious about this. And why not frankenstien? If a car maker has a good platform but you feel their motors arent for you, why not swap the motor? But the limo thing although it would be kind of cool to see just wouldnt really be useful.

The 1J would kill the agility of the car. Would it not?

eventually I want to make an ls1 powered hachi for a shop drag car. I figure full built ls1 twin turbo roughly 1000 wheel with nitrous in a sub 2k lb. car. Monstrous.

I say an s13 with an f20c turbo or the ae86 with the f20c turbo.

I was thinking supercharged to eliminate lag for a more linear power band. I only need 400hp tops.

i personly like ka24de-t in a s13, keep it nissan and usdm ?? plus its a 240sx 2.4 ,and 400ps isnt to hard to get with that

this thread is retarded.

i have an offer for the OP.
i'll bet you $200 that you have nothing close to any of these projects started by the end of winter

your just a dreamer.

unless your made of money all these projects are completely pointless showcar ideas.
whats the car going to be built for? time attack/drift/autox/hardparking?

not as much as an ls1 would !!!!!!!!!!

get a lanevo and a misfiring system

or the 86 with a type A motor

why no rx-7s as options?

Depends on what you mean by started and why is it retarded? Most of these projects can have the motors swapped and running for under 10k and thats being expensive with it. And dont be so foolish. an s13 ka-t can be done for price of car plus turbo kit (like 1500). I could make the bet and buy a 13 just to be a dick and prove you wrong but thats not necessary. I dont mean to be a dick but if you dont have a dream, you should honestly kill yourself because then your just a waste of air.
Thanks for being negative. It makes me want to get started on one of these even more.

Really? I try not to get my ideas from movies and im almost positive that an ls1 weighs less than a 1jz. As far as the rx-7s thing. I dont know. The 944 is kind of my fc just better looking to me.

Sr corolla is pretty crazy. and easy to do also. The porsche thing will be more time consuming and harder to work on with the motor in the car IMO. Miata is just lame and should be the last choice. Or you could get really gangster and build a 1j corolla

Sorry but I will never build a 1j corolla for anything else but drag and even then an ls1 would murder it.

LS1 SIKE. You obvioulsy have never built or drivev a built 1j. Its cheaper and better. and doesnt sound like shit. and F20 is probably the worst swap you can put in a car IMO. You have to spend so much money on hondas and tuning and all this crap and you get get stock sr power.

i was being sarcastic about the initial d cars , oh and guess what i found out about the 1jz versus ls1 weights? i was wrong by about 200 lbs, that aluminum block helps just a little bit

Your right. I have never built or driven a 1jz but the only car I have ever been in that scared me from sheer power was powered by a ls1 single turbo. So show me a 1j thats cheaper and equally as fast and I will admit im wrong. But until then the 1j cant compare.
Lets not fight over opinions though.

I know bro I was just being a sarcastic smartass. I know what you mean though. But yeah ls1 is lighter I wasnt sure but I checked it out and I was correct. Thanks for not trying to twist shit around though. Thats honorable.

for some reason ive wanted an AE86 with an SR swap, so thats where my vote goes.

from the looks of the current market value of the hachi and how up tight and unrealistic the owners of these cars have become, the miatta will probably be the more realistic choice, even though i would choose the sr 86 over the miatta with the same motor, they are close.

Id like to know who said this and why...."dreamer w/ lame dreams. you fail."
I just want to know who so I can laugh in your face when I am done. I mean come on neg rep because you dont like my taste. If thats the case I can neg rep like thousands of people but thats not what I am here for.
