You can get an S13 red top DET front clip for around $1700 at flashoptions.com

AzNcHiCk92 (3:40:38 PM): I don't think so

RusspOTvn (3:40:49 PM): he had to have had one of those power adders

AzNcHiCk92 (3:40:54 PM): he spent about 3.5 grand on the engine

AzNcHiCk92 (3:41:03 PM): well

RusspOTvn (3:41:08 PM): was the car lightened at all?

AzNcHiCk92 (3:41:10 PM): if he can reace 12 secs

AzNcHiCk92 (3:41:13 PM): then I can to

AzNcHiCk92 (3:41:47 PM): I mean, you said there was no way to make it fast

RusspOTvn (3:41:49 PM): lol, and no you cant reach the 12's with your engine

AzNcHiCk92 (3:41:54 PM): I am gonna do what i can with what i got

RusspOTvn (3:42:09 PM): so you're telling me that he ran a 12 with no turbo, supercharger, or nitrous?

AzNcHiCk92 (3:42:45 PM): he prolly ran nitrous

RusspOTvn (3:43:06 PM): you just said you didnt think he ran nitrous?

Dramon_Killer 02-02-2004 03:40 PM

AzNcHiCk92 (3:44:56 PM): I don't know

AzNcHiCk92 (3:45:08 PM): all i know is ran 12 sec without the sr20det

AzNcHiCk92 (3:45:16 PM): so thats my goal

AzNcHiCk92 (3:45:35 PM): and no super or turbo

AzNcHiCk92 (3:45:57 PM): told ya it was possible

AzNcHiCk92 (3:46:22 PM): and it will cost me 4 grand to do the swap

RusspOTvn (3:46:23 PM): ...

AzNcHiCk92 (3:46:43 PM): and about the same to keep the engine i have and run the same times with performance parts

RusspOTvn (3:47:00 PM): well

RusspOTvn (3:47:07 PM): yes you can run 12s with your engine

RusspOTvn (3:47:16 PM): but ur gonna have to run nitrous

RusspOTvn (3:47:18 PM): a fairly large shot too

RusspOTvn (3:47:26 PM): youre gonna have to build up your engine too

AzNcHiCk92 (3:47:36 PM): I will dude

RusspOTvn (3:47:39 PM): and get some sort of engine management system along with an upgraded fuel systems

RusspOTvn (3:47:40 PM): but

AzNcHiCk92 (3:47:41 PM): i gots lots of time

RusspOTvn (3:47:56 PM): in the end you'll have spent about 1-2 grand less for power that you'll only get when you press a button

RusspOTvn (3:48:10 PM): and nitrous wont help you nearly as much for autox or roadracing

RusspOTvn (3:48:11 PM): just drag

RusspOTvn (3:48:18 PM): which i dont see why you got a 240 if youre just gonna drag

AzNcHiCk92 (3:48:27 PM): well, forget nitrous then



Auto response from AzNcHiCk92 (3:48:27 PM): spark plugs



AzNcHiCk92 (3:48:35 PM): i will have to do it some other way

Baldy 02-02-2004 03:55 PM

Err that was paxton again he's always at his gf's house and on her sn.



I swear, i tell this kid what to do and the only way unless you wanna spend a crapload of money with something not even worth bothering with. And he decides to do opposite of what i tell him just so he can be freaking right or something? I don't get it. I'm getting really tired of this kid.

rexguy 02-03-2004 04:42 PM

I used to work at a shop that did these swaps. if they want a running engine thats not gonna puke oil from the turbo, I'd love to see them do it for under $4K, let alone $2K. and a 12 sec. KA is BS, even a boosted KA, unless there is some extreme motor work done will only get you 300 HP and last maybe 10,000 miles. the person is retarded and really isn't worth your time. tell them to save their money for an FD, they will have as much money in it and have a better looking car LOL

g_dripht-alex 02-03-2004 05:28 PM

a retard like that doesnt deserve to own a car.

You can have a cheap fast car...until you break something...the mazda was cheap, until my tranny blew up. Now money is no object with my car. If i cared about every penny that went into it...i would've sold it and bought a geo.
