I was wondering if anyone has done the swap into the RWD version?I was thinking with thier light wieght they would make a prime candidate for a 13b swap(13b-re if I had the money).Has this been done before.From what I've read about them the bolt pattern on them is the same 4x110 pattern as the non-SE has.Just curious.



Thanx

There's a guy with a GLC with a 13BT, big turbo, with plans for running alcohol. I believe that he used the rear suspension from a GSL SE, but I haven't seen him in quite a while.

I would love to drive a ugly looking beater that goes that good.https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png Just imagine the looks on people faces when you're passing them.

It doesn't run yet. It just needs the rad to be installed and a bit of other finishing work, but that's it.



By the way, what do you mean by HB? It's not a Cosmo. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

HB- Hatchback.GLC HB I wanted to do a 13b swap into one cause they're lightwieghts that are similar to the RX7 in some ways.
