dont hate the SOHC, your FB is cleaner than most kitted cars here.

TheSnail · 07-09-2005, 10:46 PM

Makoto, think of it this way. With the $116 you could of went to the junkyard and picked up a 350 from a Caravan. The 5.7L that you dream of.

MakotoS13 · 07-09-2005, 10:53 PM

the 5.7 i dream of is all aluminum. the 5.0 i dream of is almost a perfect fit. this is where doriftomagic comes back to tell me i'm just blowin hot air.

somebody had to do the first RB swap and somebody will do these.

lilredstiffy · 07-09-2005, 11:09 PM

a buddy of mine has a rwd car with gay wheels, an ls1, and i think the factory stereo has two paper 8" speakers?

i think you bought the wrong car maktaoato

DoriftoSlut · 07-09-2005, 11:16 PM

No, this is where i come back and tell you good luck. If you actually do it, cool. I've worked on/seen 240s with everything from RBs to 1JZs, and I'll tell you... the weirder you get, the more expensive and the more problems. Simple as that.

And of course you're car is going to look "clean" (i hate when people say that, its lame). You don't drive it on the track, its stock OEM, and you probably wash it 4 times a week.

Show me a race car that is show worthy. From Le Mans to F1 to Nascar, they all have scars and ill-fitting peices. I have a racecar that i choose to drive everyday. Hate all you want cause it doesn't cost $5 mil but that's what it is.

IGSDann · 07-09-2005, 11:22 PM

God, what a stupid conversation. Makoto hates bandwagon jumpers and slut hates him because of...? And now there's this stupid little arguement going on? Bah! Gay, grow up...

Oh and who gives a shit what Mak does with his car, he doesn't have to autoX, track or drift it. And no one cares what you do with you car either slut so enough about your wheels specs...

Oh and the setup is looking good Makoto, I'd integrate a rear STB into the rear while you're building that box.

And slut: I've seen plenty of V8 swaps into 240's, it doesn't seem to be any worse than an RB, possibly easier than a 2JZ

kandyflip445 · 07-09-2005, 11:23 PM

I don't get why you constantly try to poop on Makoto because you don't agree on what he does with his car, then drag it out. If you don't like it, say your piece and be done with it. Don't bring other things into the post that aren't relevant to the thread, like the SOHC comment.

EEdude · 07-09-2005, 11:25 PM

Let this thread die already. He talks a lot about big displacement...but the best he can do is remove his AIV system.

CaoBoY · 07-10-2005, 01:02 AM

hey makoto, nice shiet. really, i think its nice......a little more base, what speaker size is that like 8's? that box is probably perfect for it. two 8's in a small box like that, will be enough base to feel the beat, but not be too loud or deep that people can hear ur gangster music from miles away(or whatever u listen too) i kinda want to do something like that, but probably with 6.5's, but seeing ur setup, it looks even better, more functional, doesnt take up too much space, adds base and sound quality...what more could you ask for? keep going it with man, dont worry bout shit people say. atleast ur not gutting your car to look cool for that 'drift status' and your not just throwing the shit back there, your keeping the install looking good. keep up that shit.

SochBAT · 07-10-2005, 02:27 AM

i prefer stock sound, except the headunit, but damn, you did a nice job on those. Props for your love of JDM.

it takes time to acutally dump a v8 into the 240...you need a lot things to think about...plan..fabricate. If you take your time and do it right the first time then you wont run into more problems down the road...

point well taken...the thing is not everyone wants to have a race car...he might just want to have a clean daily driver that goes fast and handles well...same reason i bought my 350z...i didnt buy it to build into a race car...i just wanted it to have fun...will i be tracking my car...without a doubt...do i drive like a bat out of hell...without a doubt...to each his own i guess...im not instigating or flaming here...just me .02

cant we all just get a long

Thank you! I was gonna say that but the lack of sleep stupified me to simple sarcasm.

p.s. you do realize that the motor is going to be replaced by one over twice its displacement... right?

Please, for the love of God and sanity of the forum, could you two put a close to this internet dick-swinging contest and ignore one another? Either that or arrange to meet and settle this with a fistfight, shit.

Pank · 07-10-2005, 08:41 PM

I heard one time that people have different opinions when it comes to cars and they will argue about them to no end.

I think i read that in a book somewhere. Maybe i saw it on TV.

Also, I only have respect for people that make Boso cars, so i hate both of you

axiomatik · 07-11-2005, 12:01 PM

What? No attacks about there being a picture thread? Makoto should be yelling at himself that there is a picture thread for this sort of thing and that this thread should be locked and the user pinked.

true dat, a newb would've had his thread locked long ago...
I guess this thread is alive cuz it's holds so much relevence and important kack-swingin.... errr.. . flaming... no wait... bad ass ICE install... wait no...

What was this thread about again? Oh right, pix ;P LOL

MakotoS13 · 07-11-2005, 12:33 PM

2 things:

-the topic is: my account got screwed, barry fixed it, and here's what i've been workin on.

-its just one of those details that don't really matter to anyone but me. i wanted something to get rid of the back seats and not look like total butt AND experiment with building a box.

its something different and subtle. get over it folks.
