j_jza80 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Shouldn't make to much difference in the handling department either as I believe these are Alloy aren't they? They sound amazing. Oodles of NA torque too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr_jekyll Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 i dont know why but id be dissapointed with only 520bhp from an 8.3 v10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 i dont know why but id be dissapointed with only 520bhp from an 8.3 v10 Maybe, but I bet it has some serious torque and thats what counts. I reckon it would fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martini Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 More or less mpg than my N/A? Might be a good mod to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Piece of art, so much potential with a supercharger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Ptssh only 62.65 BHP per litre Add a modest supercharger to that and you have nearly 800bhp from the moment you push the pedal (and that sexy whine coupled with a v10 bruble ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 More or less mpg than my N/A? Might be a good mod to consider. It's nearly 3 times the capacity of your engine.... that's not going equate to better fuel economy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Err, how about in this one perhaps http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1167354.htm Why ruin a perfectly good engine by inserting it in that abomination? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steady_dave Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Please someone buy it, would be great, unique, great, sound awesome, great. I could see it being a difficult project to do but the result would be great. Did I mention that this would be great! Who fancies lending me some money?

martini Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 (edited) It's nearly 3 times the capacity of your engine.... that's not going equate to better fuel economy Sarcasm Matt, sarcasm. I wouldn't spend 6K on an engine to improve fuel economy... If I care about fuel economy, I wouldn't have a supra Who fancies lending me some money? This guy?

Bobbeh Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Dont think it'll handle too well with that up front.. but it sure would sound nice and go fast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 1) It doesn't fit (unless you do a Ryan.g type install, but see 3 below) 2) It's incredibly heavy and will completely screw up the weight distribution, even moved back 3) With it moved back, you'd need to sit in the rear seat to reach the shifter. Already looked into it Jamie. Would be nice, but it's a no go-er in a supra shell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 It weighs approx 50kg more than a 2JZ from what I can gather I'm sure it would fit in a Jag XJS though, and they're pretty cheap now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
