Alex L. Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I'm not sure that there's much of a demand for something like this. IS300 owners are fairly methodical with their modifications (NA-T, GTE swap). It's a good thought, but I don't see there being enough of a market to make this extremely lucrative.

RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I might drive one with an ls1, but I'd still have to replace the guages because can't stand the stock ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordell Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Fuck putting the beloved LS1 into a god damned hat car. You should just use a 5.0 and T-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benner Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 i'd rock it. Then I'd trade it for a GTP. But really that'd be damn sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 x3 ull make more power with a 2jz with a big single mmmm sexy But will it get 28 mpg on the highway, make 300ft-lbs off idle, loaf at 1200rpms, have cheap parts, and run 200k miles before maybe needing to be opened up?

RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 yes Bullcrap. How much torque does a 2jz make off-boost compared to an LS1? Hmm, maybe 175 or 200lb-ft? How much does it make between 800-1500 rpm? That's where I drive, so that's where I want my torque damnit! And you know what, if I want to wind it out to 6500, I should be able to do that with the same motor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you know what, if I want to wind it out to 6500, I should be able to do that with the same motor! Good thing about a 2jz is that it has 2 turbos, so you dont have to worry about driving off boost, unless you want to save fuel, then you can do that too. It makes 300ft lbs if not more, sure a 2jz expert will jump in here. You drive like an old fart, i bet turbos hate you for trying to keep the engine rpm's too low, which result in turbo rpm's going up. 6500rpm? What the fuck is that weak ass shit? 7000 is where its at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg1647545532 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 1uz swap (in a wagon no less...) http://home.roadrunner.com/~bedellracing/v8swap/ Still looking for an LS1. I swear I've seen it, but can't find it. edit: nevermind, I see you found that thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What the fuck is that weak ass shit? 7000 is where its at. Yeah, I can get the old girl up over 7000 every now and then, but 90% of my driving occurs below 2000 until I run out of gear, then I have no choice. I need a small 2nd turbo on my shit to get me spooled from idle- 2000, then the K24 can take care of the rest. Not worth the effort though, I'd rather just have a nice big V8 and tall gearing. The seat of the pants knows what it wants, and low-compression, off-boost, <200lb-ft motors aren't going to cut it. I did look at a couple dyno charts of 2JZs, and they're around 160 lb-ft off boost around 2000ish. That's weak as hell for a sports car. Your S4 makes over 250 from nearly off-idle, that's why it feels so good around town. I move that power 1500rpm up, and you'll hate it.

CRed05 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Put an S4 motor in it then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Too expensive, already got an S4 motor . Plus, I like the maintenance schedule of a sbc about 50 million times better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean audi 100 motor? Yeah, 3hp per liter or whatever a SBC makes is pretty sweet i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 A nice small block tuned to around 75hp/liter (in your speak) would work just fine for me on the street. Even better, a nice mild 300hp small block with a couple psi when I want it. Perfect! I got your Audi 100 motor right here! Oh, and how come your fancy new BIGGER Audi S4 motor with an extra turbo can only manage the same factory rated torque (but at 100 lower rpm) as my old, crappy, tiny, turbo-lagging S4 motor? Oh well, at least my turbo still works after 180k+ miles. How are your original turbos again? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRed05 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 How are your original turbos again? Sitting in my garage, perfectly fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hwilli1647545487 Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I think an LS1 has been stuffed into just about everything at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Awesome. If I could get one into an Audi without having totally wrong gearing and a nose-heavy pusher I'd be set. Not sure that will ever happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that will ever happen I and the rest of the Audi community would hate you forever. Unless you put it in a non-turbo car i guess it would be ok.

RyM3rC Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 I'll put it into a nice b5 A4, how's that? Or maybe an A8, that would be very nice. Either way, it's all out of my price range, but that's what happens when you buy a house on $22k/year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
