thinking of a HYBRID SWAP!!!!

drifterboy240 · 02-18-2007, 02:03 PM

okay so the offer for the MR-2 has come and gone

so that got me to thinking since the BEAMS motor came out of the ALTEZZA RS200 if i remember correctly since the 240sx is a rear wheel drive and the ALTEZZA is rear wheel drive. some people know where im going with this.

does anyone have a link where i can look at a schematic for the BEAMS from an ALTEZZA. maybe some pics.

all im saying is if people can swap in the 2JZ-GTTE into a 240sx why go N/A with it and do a BEAMS swap????

youre crazy...

i'd rather you stick with a turbo motor. you'll be tired of a 200hp na car quickly.

why not use an SR20? its a much simpliar swap + much more power potential

im not very big on turbo cars i have driven an old friend 240 with the SR2DET motor he had 550cc injectors, T28 turbo, tunned ECU, and typical swap stuff like, exhaust, intake, bigger MAFs, diff., yada yada yada. and it was fast dont get me wrong but i just dont like the way turbo cars feel when you drive them.

and plus the SR is becoming more and more of a bandwagon motor kinda like the ITR motor for civics, everyone thinks its the best motor out there for their car when in all actuallity its not.

and besides im just looking to make people oooo and ahhh about i guess and making them think, why didnt i think of that.
