:nuts man why couldnt he just do a sr20det or RB :sad
So why is this dude throwing some junk motor in an s2000?
because VG30’s are cheap, easy to fix, and can handle 500whp on stock internals without blowing up
on
oh and torque ;D
wats a vq30t. wats the motor in the 350z’s?
I’ll give you a hint, the 350 comes from the displacement.
350Z is a VQ35DE
VG30ET is the SOHC turbo version of the VG30DET/TT thats in the 300ZX’s
thats so retarded… i understand people trying to be different, but why go backwards in technology? id rather see an LS1, and im sick of those swaps. RB or s 2JZ swap is cool, but a VG30. :headbang
Did I mention the motor weighs under 400lbs? Its around ~360lbs might be a bit more
Did I mention the F series in the s2000 weighs about 300?
throw a cummins 4bt in there for torkz
beat me to it.
going from a 4 to a 6, its not that much of a differance, thats what i was getting at
:gay
no way to justify putting a turd like a VG30DETT into an S2000.
Gotcha, but it’s still an older (junk) motor, going into a semi decent car. Save it for your Z cars :lol
Hey hey
VG30’s are great motors…
like I said, Cheap, Reliable, make awsome power without the need of internals, and pretty light
VG30ET noob
How is this supposed to be better?
yeah great. ive had one it was in my maxima… great engine i tell you, great!.. i wouldnt go as far as reliable, and when things break they arent cheap either. i like nissan, but the VG30 wouldnt my first or 2nd choice engine for a custom conversion. if i got it for free with the tranny and an r230 diff with it, sure thing, id use it, but i wouldnt pay for it
