VQ or LS1 Swap? - Page 2 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

If you have to ask you're not ready for either

Also. . . if you're going to go aluminum 5.3, please remove the displacement on demand. Those engines sound so horrible on 4 cylinders at idle. Plus the fuel savings (are you really even concerned about that if you're doing a swap?), are minimal since you're putting the engine into such a light car.

Heads are stupid easy to pull on a V8 also, you can do all kinds of head work for stupid cheap on these too, AND install the heads in an afternoon.

Would you keep an FD rx7 rotary when it blows, or go LS?... don't worry I already know the answer.

How about getting your car to run right before talking shit since you're so damn J D M MAN!!!!!!!!...... Wanker. Why is this still going, OP doesn't give two shits apparently. Doubt he even has the skills or budget to even do this.

Why is this thread even still open? "Which engine" threads always suck.

Summary: Don't try to rebuild an engine. Don't F with the cam bearings. Just swap the cam, add springs and leave the rest alone.

Kingtal0n · 07-12-2018, 03:52 PM

Summary: Don't try to use the 4l60e. Just get a 4l80e or six speed.

Oh god this next one kills me, had me rolling for like an hour

oLemurs · 07-12-2018, 03:54 PM

The good thing about rotaries is you can get a cheap one brand new from mazda (because they know they often blow)

Anyway, this thread is lame. And after being away for quite some time, i do not understand how nor why kingtalon is still posting...

We never say anything about you dumping ass loads of money into your 4cylinder. Who cares what this guy or the next person wants to swap. It’s personal preference, is this thread done now?

Kingtal0n · 07-14-2018, 07:38 AM

I Mean. $free engine. $free transmission. $200 rear end.
