I'll just wait for the countless negative comments to follow from the "Skyline is God" and "How dare you disgrace that car" fanclubs

soul please admit the stock engine is beast and can produce stupid amounts of hp

Soulburner · 01-24-2007, 06:58 PM

Sure but its nice to see something different

cursivearmy1 · 01-24-2007, 09:01 PM

Asian cars shouldn't sound like that

STEvil · 01-24-2007, 09:02 PM

needs diesel

hahaha

Carlz0r · 01-24-2007, 09:16 PM

I'd rather keep the original engine.

p0tter · 01-24-2007, 09:22 PM

Id rather have the C6.

trance565 · 01-24-2007, 10:07 PM

i'de rather take a hatch, and put in an ls7.

MaxxxRacer · 01-24-2007, 11:22 PM

wow... what an amazing idea...

eXceededgoku · 01-24-2007, 11:38 PM

that sounds like one of those rediculous american cars (see mustang) with a huuuge engine and tiny power

. I think I'll take stock Skyline engine and twin turbo it, thanks

... mustang engine ???? huge??? lol a 281/302 is by no means HUGE, lol. in america we call them small blocks for a reason. anyways, single turbo 306 at 30 psi = 1133whp.(with built internals and all that fyi)

and a huge motor, would be a 427, or bigger, we call them big blocks, and there is definantly reason behind it. you ever seen a piston the size of a newborn baby?

Der_KHAN · 01-25-2007, 12:49 PM

damn, i love the sound of that engine. i could listen to it getting revved up all day long

fullmetal · 01-25-2007, 06:44 PM

damn dude, skyline is my dream car, mainly the R34, but if i findan R33 for a good price ill get it, skyline is an amazing piece of engineering.

I think the skyline is a badass car and also think the ls1 is a beasty engine nothing wrong with swapping the motor.

Yea, those little 03/04 Cobras, and the slow C6 Z06, Viper, low output GTO. No wonder they have the reputation they have. Just really big noisemakers. Also, theres a big difference between a v6 Mustang with an exhaust, and a gt with some supporting mods.

I could car less what country a car comes from, just how it preforms. There are quite a few American made cars with great handling and power, and there are quite a few foreign made ones. And theres plenty of crap from all makers.

I have my share of tracktime, and I've been owned completely by some serious track R34's, but I've never had a stock turbo skyline be even close to the kennybell. Its pretty quick even for a huge low output ugly American V8.

trance565 · 01-26-2007, 12:45 PM

lol, it's only huge if you think about the amount of room the 4.6 takes up. seriously, any european car thats decent has a v6 or v12, and they are just about the same size/cyl. as our v8's. but yeah, like i said, you wanna see huge? go look at a ford cobrajet460, or a dodge 500+ci motor.

I don't think he was taking about just the physical size itself, just that he thought they don't make any power for the displacement for some reason.

Nice ride Ken, those 03-04 Cobras are one of the few Mustangs I wouldn't mind driving.

Thanks. Makes me very sad too see the new generation Cobra though. In my mind, it should be more of an enthusiast car, not a name endorsed retro one. And I just can't stand looking at the new style.

It just shortens the list of what an LSX hasn't been swapped into yet...
