let me amend what he said:
a d-series honda, with regular maintainence (including timing belt changes), will run until the end of time. no power = teh win.
nice wheels…what all u got done to s10
Not to break the fight up between all of you e-gangstas, but my DSM was only down this summer when I tore it apart. It never “broke down” on me, with the exception of a $3 hose that split once. If you put time into it, it’ll run fine.
/ my .02 in this thread.
DSM’s are shit, outside of having an awesome engine.
truth, if you can stick a drivetrain behind it that would stay together. My gawd it would be beautiful
BTW
4G63 > anything Honda put out
RWD 2600lb coupe with a 4G63 would be THE pimpness. of course, it will never happen.
make it happen. anything can go in anything with enough money and fabrication.
take all the big pool business money you’ll be making and put a 4G63 into a RWD Corolla… well under 2600lb…
Someone’s doing it right now, actually. A '73 Colt chassis is being used. The rear end is almost done, and I believe the motor is getting there as well.
If i remember correctly Buschur put a 4G into a CRX awhile back
i mean on a production level. If the evo weighed 500lbs less and was RWD and a coupe, and it looked cool, they would sell a bazillion of them. And the official company car will undoubtably be a 5 series BMW. Whether the car will come with those nice little “M” badges will depend on how successful the business is.
the new 5 is fugly.
amanda’s mom’s 5 (early 00s) is beautiful, and amanda’s grandfather’s 5 (early 90s) is timeless. the Bungle Bimmers aren’t going to age as well.
didnt the Conquest and Starion come rwd? and 4g63?
yes and no, i think.
the Starion/Conquest was RWD, IIRC, but it had a different motor… wasn’t it a heavy-ass straight six or something?
Turbo 2.6L i4 200hp… just looked it up
shit built 5.7litre in a 2700lb stang>*above stated
they were 180 a piece
How would it be different from a 240SX with a swap?
Mazda B2600 bellhousing with Turbo Rx-7 gear box bolts right up to a 4g63 block.
To try and make a dsm a RWD would be super hard
Your power steering rack is in the way. The tunnel for an awd driveshaft is a little too awkard for a rwd transand. Dsm rear ends arent the tightest box of crackers on the shelf.It could be done. ANYTHING can be done. But why?
you’re right, i should probably acually do something with it huh, instead of getting headers, building an exhaust with an h-pipe, wiring up gauges, fixing the interior, putting new seats in it, finding/buying/installing a new rear end, getting a new driveshaft for it, all new bearings and seals in the axles, wheels, tires, fixing the tranny, getting a carb that works and putting in all new engine gaskets like i’ve been doing the last 2 months maybe i should actually do something to it huh. :ugh2:
can we leave the 4g discussion out of a thread about an s10 :wtf:
