    Blunttech e12 LSx / t56 swap

    Before tedfest Steve from Blunttech dropped off his e12 at my place for a LQ4 swap among other things. Here are a few details on the build so far....

    LQ4 iron block truck engine (6L LSx)
    T56 6 speed
    spax springs
    billy sports
    adjustable rear camber/caster subframe
    fully rebuild suspension, front and rear.

    I took a few pictures while I had it out of the garage today.







    Tired m30






    I have another car to finish and then I can dig into the e12. Hoping to be able to start next week sometime.[/url]

          That's fucking awesome.

          I have an LSD out of an E12 that I've been planning on selling if you guys are interested...I doubt I'll ever have a use for it.

                    Im really excited after riding to Toronto in jakes car. Its about as perfect as you could ask for .. Fast,quiet but not too quiet and working ac. and 25MPG I dont think you can make my e12 much more of a sleeper. People look at me like i have leprosy for driving it. Its the worst looking car ive ever owned but for some reason its one of my favorites to drive. I think its because I dont have to worry about anyone door dinging me or the other things that keep me from enjoying my nicer cars

                      QFT, My car is far from clean or perfect. But I love it I have nothing to worry about when driving her and that is the way it should be.

                            Fiuuu I want to do this. I need to get rolling on my E28
                            Glad you are using an E12. Such a cool chassis. Need to find a '75 hood for the sexy bulge

                              I need to keep the tranny to combine the gear drive speedo to a dogleg 265 I just bought for another project but the rest is up for grabs. The motor is tired though A full minute for the oil light to go out upon starting it
