@Pigioto1 I'm asking how come so many guys are switching

DZoneTV | September 8, 2010

@Pigioto1
I’m asking how come so many guys are switching to the V8 engines. Are the normal motors not good enough for them?

catchy indeed schwing

EsCurve | September 8, 2010

catchy indeed schwing

@DZoneTV its all preference. The KA series engines they come

Pigioto1 | September 8, 2010

@DZoneTV its all preference. The KA series engines they come with here have alot of potential as do the SR and RB series engines from Nissan but some people are more comfortable working with something their more familiar with or just simply like an LS V8 better :)

almost 420ci awh yeah xD

@DRFTmonkeh so having like a twin turbo setup is double

2fast4all | September 8, 2010

@DRFTmonkeh so having like a twin turbo setup is double the maintenance?

BTW ive never owned a turboed car before so I wouldn’t know..

@DRFTmonkeh Makes sense now, thanks. Something about GM + lexus

2fast4all | September 8, 2010

@DRFTmonkeh Makes sense now, thanks. Something about GM + lexus or other toyotas in the mixture = fail….

Nissans with those LS motors seem to be the sweet spot..

@decamerondix one is just for the e-brake

@DZoneTV stock american cars have shitty suspension geometry. every domestic

DRFTmonkeh | September 8, 2010

@DZoneTV stock american cars have shitty suspension geometry. every domestic muscle car in FD is probably tubed up and probably has a complete suspension swap to double wishbones. but almost all JDM sportscars have excellent suspensions and very light chassis, and american V8 engines are excellent for drifing. so it only makes sense to combine the light JDM chassis with a V8 engine.

@2fast4all its not that they're dated, its just V8s are

DRFTmonkeh | September 8, 2010

@2fast4all its not that they’re dated, its just V8s are so much more reliable and easier to maintain and drive. performance wise they’re not necessarily better (usually are though).

@2fast4all hiro sumida drove the first version of the discount

DRFTmonkeh | September 8, 2010

@2fast4all hiro sumida drove the first version of the discount tires IS350. it had a 2JZ and then an LS6. dai inherited it last year but did poorly, eventually crashing it here at vegas. the LS6 was salvaged from the car and dropped into Ross Petty’s old PS13, which dai now drives.

Love S13's with Rocket Bunny body kits. People will go

CJAEY | September 8, 2010

Love S13′s with Rocket Bunny body kits. People will go against it but if you simply want more power its all about that LS swap.

linkdarkshadow | September 8, 2010

Probably the best S13 in the world. A combination of a good chassis and a good American V8 engine with torque to spare. No turbo lag here, because you put the foot down and there is power there at any RPM. Gotta love NA engines.

i feel that the sr20det built of course should have

tanabe4 | September 8, 2010

i feel that the sr20det built of course should have been used rather than the Ls2 v8
