my new engine trannyamusaved 03-10-2005, 02:41 AM So you said, I could put in a gtp engine but, would i have to change trannys? Or would the one I have work with this engine? Also I asked someone else before and they told me that I'd have HAVE to change supports in the front and depending on what all I change I might have to reinforce the entire car because of the gtps being rear wheel drive cars. That is if I used their transmissions? Basically I want a better engine and have no knowledge of anything to do with this type. -Jayson- 03-10-2005, 11:19 AM uhh how much automotive knowledge do you have in general? This isnt going to be an easy swap. YOu will need to fabricate things like mounts. If i were you i would use the stock 3800 SC transmission, you really dont want front wheel drive when you have 200HP or more. For all the information you need on this, check out www.jbody.org and search around for a guy named Raven, he did this. zx3dod 03-11-2005, 01:25 AM uhh how much automotive knowledge do you have in general?

Whats worng with being front wheel drive and pushing over 200HP, traction problems??

It takes alot of work to get it to run properly, but the outcome are sickly amazing. -Jayson- 03-11-2005, 11:36 AM yeah way to much torque. That engine makes like 240HP stock. I have almost 200HP on my car and starting from a dig is kinda hard cause it spins so much. And sometimes the torque steer scares the shit outa me. EnjukuRacing240sx 03-11-2005, 01:55 PM lol nothing worse than racing someone at a light when you got mad torque steer. the car launches right at the other car! zx3dod 03-11-2005, 10:30 PM lol nothing worse than racing someone at a light when you got mad torque steer. the car launches right at the other car! LoL, well hey look on the bright side, it just might scare the shit out of them so they give you a nice little head start :grinyes: noshun 03-13-2005, 01:44 AM LSD will deplete any torque steer and since when were GTPs RWD?!?!?! nickelfish19 03-13-2005, 01:51 AM LSD will deplete any torque steer and since when were GTPs RWD?!?!?! lysergic acid diethylamide?
