If you could use any engine in the E30...

[e30trooper]

how about a KA24DE with a fat ass turbo :D or and rb26dett , that would be nice

[Trucidatio]

A lightly modded M42.
Or possibly SC'd

Why cause i really dont care for HP, and that would be more than fast enough for me.

F1 m10 believe they call is the s10 or m12??

It wont be all fwd or rwd I think the most it can go is 70 to 30. Any ways STI's are gay and a wast of money. Get an LS1!

how is an Sti gay?

[TDE30]

This.



...or an S62B50 so I can have shittons of torque to warp the chassis with.

That picture alone is fucking badass. How'd you snag an F1 motor?

How is it not gay?

Slow, overpriced, and to many asian kids have them and think they are fast.

^^ It belongs to a good buddy here in town whose father owns a fiber optics company, the pictures were taken at his hanger. It goes to the long-tailed, FINA-liveried McLaren F1 GTR (chassis 21R) that competed at 24H LeMans in 1997. It was pretty amazing to have my car sitting right next to a motor that is worth easily 100 times more than it.

Sadly, I couldn't source the sequential gearbox that mated to it, so swapping it in the e30 is out. :(

slow? ok.

The Boxer engine sound is Sexual.

Yes they are slow.

I don't really like the sound of them even though I have a Subaru. They all sound like they are back firing or just tuned improperly.
