This is saying ITB to me the V6 would sound very good. No turbo, you have lots of power. If you want more, 100hp nitrous shot would solve that for a lot cheaper than a turbo and room is a big concern with that v6(piping, manifolds, turbo's etc). Good job on the swap have you tried braking hard to see how it handles weight transfer? My will get a bit loose in the rear under hard breaking, but I have 12 inch rotor's in the front.

I've only put roughly 200kms on the swap so far so i haven't really "pushed" the car too much yet to see how the handling is now etc.

At first the steering felt very weird but i knew the alignment was out quite a bit so yesterday i just got an alignment done on it so now i'll be able to get a better feel for it :lol:

I wonder what the alignment shop thought about the engine size... lol

I went to school with two of the mechanics so they already knew about my car, although a funny story is on my way home I stopped for gas and when I fired it up the guy at the pump behind me said "those things aren't supposed to sound like that" :evil4:

I managed to get a few mins today after work and before it got dark to swap the front bumper out tonight for an un-modified, freshly painted (spray bombs) black stock bumper, i still have the rear to do but its getting dark so that'll be another day

You need a personalized plate for that car. KLZEstiva, or something.

[Damkid]

Well considering my insurance dilema, mine may not make it to any meets this year since i shouldn't really be driving it

so time for more upgrades
