nothing against you bro but

this is what pisses me off when people compare it to RB motors.. just respect all motors for what they are... and lots of ignorant people just dont know what the motors are capable of..

i hate ignorant domestic and import tuner period


and also becuase its a mustang you don't put a rb in it... ...... well we can say the same about you ls6 in a 240.. should not be there.

 

I say it's not the same thing as an LSx in a 240. The LSx series of engines is far superior to the RB series of engines. The difference is that the performance potential of the 'Stang was decreased by putting the RB in there. It just fit the storyline.

 

I think saying that the lsx engines are "far superior" is really stretching it. Fact is, LSx motors are using pushrods, PUSHRODS. You can howstuffworks.com or wikipedia this but there are many cons relating to LSx series engines. One for example is that they have 2 valves per cylinder making it not very efficient in many ways and another relating to how high these can rev. But the fact remains that these chevy smallblock v8's make great amounts of power. Just do a little research and compare it to the OHC design.

Here's a link to some pushrod info on howstuffworks.com

I know they use pushrods and all that, before I got into Nissans I wanted a Camaro more than anything, so that may be why I'm biased towards Chevy anyways, so take what I say with a grain of salt. But, the fact remains that the LSx engines have been proven to put down amazing amounts of power and torque reliably. There's no timing belt or chain to break. Pushrods are not that great a hurdle because these engines have more torque than horsepower and don't need to rev that high. And besides, GM doesnt call them pushrod engines anymore, they call them "Cam In Block"

 

WOW..........

 

yeah they are...friend of mine has one in a s14 and it is a scary fun hella ride .....but im the kinda guy that likes it if its nissan leave it in the nissan famly.....know....

 

This getting out of hand. I can understand a LS in a 240sx, not my cup of tea but whatever. Now they do that **** to a LanEvo. It's just getting stupid. Thats our idea of American Tuning? Bleh.

Just stick to American Cars if that what we are gonna keep doing.
And Yes I like American cars alot. and yes double ****ing post!!

 

well its not a American or Japaneses thing to me.. its just all out stupidity about why motors are created a certain way.

now to say an rb is a toy compared to lsx is very stupid. this has nothing to do with nissan. its just like saying 2jz's are nothing either right?

just respect them for what they are and trust me a tuner with the same amount of money that goes into a lsx swap can build a bad *** rb and kill it......

the rev thing is very funny to. becuase lots of people don't even know where the tq band lies for an lsx engine. you are creating a very one dimensional car.. other than power drifting and the occasional drag, thats all your car will be good at. it will get ripped apart in road racing events.

ps

im not stig lol take what you read from me at face value im not going to waste my time spewing out facts to try and sway the audience lol... sorry i got burned out doing that YEARS ago.

 

lmao im going to be truthfull.

i dont know what the **** the ls1, lsx lswtf ever comes in. i know one of them is in the vette...

I think they all should stay the **** out of 240s....its a slap in the face to us. Pretty much saying our motors arent good enough, so we have to put real motors in them....v8's...

 

^He is so wise for a cute 17 snot nosed punk hahaha j/p all love
I agree with him 454545% though. Lets tune what we have.
Not make the LS_ the soloution to our want for performance.

 

 

now i don't wanna make our lsx owners here feel unconformable. my rant was not against them..

its a combination of dumb **** i have read across all forums.

 

haha here we go again. You dont take a 68 or 69 mustang with a perfect body like that and put a RB in it. A number matching car or that quality would have been worth 60-90 grand easy. With the RB in there, hmm maybe 25 who knows. I'm sure they just did it for fun, thats the only reason I have a LS6 in my 240. Its merely a fun project, and when going down the street it will having people doing a double take. As far as this thread is concerned, that evo... I have se see pics, I really dont know how it is able to fit in there, Im sure the firewall was moved back but it's a cool swap.

Now as to say what morors the best, its all a matter of opinion. I just wanted to stick something big in my car. I would love to see a 2JZ in a domestic like a TransAm or new GTO

 

I don't know enough about American engines to argue.
I was just going on Opinion. Still Rather have the 4g.

 

nothing against your **** though man. I wouldn't ever do it. But its kinda cool just because its different.
