thorshammer Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Thats right Gents! The Rex is getting a beefed up b18a and a ls 5 speed tranny. Engine is bored .50 mm with a ton of extras inside. Making around 200hp. I'll be picking it up tomorrow and will get build pics up asap! Along with the engine swap I will be doing the suspension as well, upper control arm and camber kit for front, lower control arm and camber kit in the rear with 0-4in adjustable springs. I'm gonna bring the stance down just a tad Quote

Mikesmith0890 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Why not just swap in a LSX motor? Quote AlphaDamp Sound Deadening CDL Mat - The best Vibration Damper Ever! I'd hit that so fucking hard whoever pulled me out would be King of England. Lol... looks like we were on the same page. Car-B-Ques suck.ya, tires and paint burning make the marshmallows taste funny.
thorshammer Posted December 29, 2011 Author Report Posted December 29, 2011 Why not just swap in a LSX motor? I got this motor which only has 5k miles built as it is now with ls 5 speed trans, ecu and axles for only 1k! This thing is stronger than a b18C GSR Type R which sells for 3500+ on average. It was a deal of a lifetime and fairly local being in Sacremento. Quote
