# Jdm_Racer :
I think instead of boosting this stang an V8 Swap will transform your ride

To remove the Cyclone V6 to put in a Coyote is not as easy as you may think you'll probably be like "yo vee the mustang is a V8 car just swap the coyote in"
It's a lot of work you have ECU remapping, new engine mounts and since this is the 2013 the most technically advanced Mustand to the 2016 there's more wires than NASA so that adds to the amount of work.

Plus I'm more a mechanic kind of guy not the guy who programmes shit and it'll be a fortune to get a V8 in, then again if I had enough money I'd buy 5.0 instead Of the 3.7.

I haven't got much problems with the V6 the most engine thing I've done is a Carbon Fiber intake cover and some aftermarket cams well that's what I reported last since I've bought tons of new shit and I'm still searching for the right Turbo Kit.

The Miata has just been covered since its been finished I wanted to drive it to work today but I would have been bombarded with questions
so later today I'll report back with some updates on the Pony and my soon to be Third car that I've been eyeing.

Mikingo

i'm think about 3 car what could it be :v

VFLUSH

SOOOOOOooooo.......

Yes I haven't been posting dick about the Mustang only the beautiful Miata :drool2: She so niceeee....

But here's what I haven't posted :

Tune Day

(image unavailable in archive)

Since the last update I bought new rims and the 302 Boss wing since then I've have gone deeper into the mods.
New 355mm Front Brembo Brake Kit and a 345mm rear Kit

A tune by Roush Performance, they even threw on the stage 3 body kit and a new exhaust manifold and tips, my neighbors probably want me dead now,
I put away my RTR rims in to storage and bought these powder coat gold PUR LG01 19" the gold and white perfect combination.
Oh not to mention the real carbon fiber side skirts and 302 leather seats and carbon fiber dash insert, I threw exactly V$5000 into this car and no turbo as yet,
but the Tune added just enough power to rival it's 5.0 brother

Here's some before and after pics to refresh who've never seen the mustang

AFTER

Nice isn't it here's the minor details that I may have left out

Added 11 minutes later:

Oh before I forget here's the car i think will be a perfect sleeper build, these are the only pics I was able to get since took it on test drive
Legacy RS has a new EJ25 JDM spec, non turbo motor from its last owner, this means who owned it last put some work into it.

What do you guys think ? Yay or Ney

Hey Guys..........

I've been seeing A.....Lot of GTRs for sale not the R35 but a R32 or R33
Since there legal here I think I should put the sleeper money into one,
I've seen alot of them but the ones that'll be in my budget are GTS-Ts
with RB25s and 26s.

What do you guys think ?
When I come back from my drift day I'll pass by the JDM dealer on my way home.

Skyline or Legacy ?

My dilemma

GoverningNick

If you go with an R chassis, you'd have to pay out the ass for anything you want to put on it due to importation of parts, or you would have to manage to find parts for a Skyline in the States, which is next to none. If you do get it, however, you'd probably be one of six or so guys in California with an R chassis.

Driftphantom

I own a JDM spec car here in california, (my z33) and its alot of trouble to make it street legal(which is why mine isn't) Only specific year models of the r33 are legal here, so you will face the same crap I did/ still do with the Z. It's gonna be too much of a hassle id say. Go with the legacy

Jdm_Racer

If you realy want a sleeper the Legacy is the way to go But i can help you with the parts importation if you want the skykine.

Drift Day.....

Today was the day it's been a week since the car has been finished and it's about time she went sideways
I do have to admit I suck at drifting even with a even powerband it took me a while to get a grip at the wheel,
there was a few guys at the track and I got some pretty good shots no tandems unfortunately the car I didn't expect to see
was a 911 (993) Turbo I was hearing screaming and bovs all over only for a Blue 911 to fly past the pits.

I even got to get a drive along in it 😃

(image unavailable in archive)

I called it the blue beetle, you know cuz the VW Beetle is the 911s Father and it's blue and
the blue beetle from DC comics. Anything ?

Anyway it was an awesome day, Willow Springs I....WILL......BE.....BACK......and fail until I get better.

Remember I said I'm checking out a new project car and I got interested in Skylines ?

They are two in my Price range that are already here in the states :

An R33 GTS2-ST with a RB26ET engine swap

It's your typical JDM shipped to USA cliche Recaro Seats no Nardi wheel :crying:

From the brochure it makes 438HP 305TQ
which is decent
And coincidentally it has the same rims I bought for my Miata

HKS Hipermax Coilovers

A Kakimotor Exhaust

In a nutshell this car has been worked on

ALOT...................

But still stock to a point.

Price is reasonable in Skyline Price but reasonable, I guess ?

It goes for V$7500

(image unavailable in archive)

The other Skyline is a R32 GTS-T with a SR20DET with real Nismo LM-GT4 18" Rims this car , a buddy of mine who works at the port
told me there is one, the guy who brought it in got it illegally and it was confiscated, he also told me it was going to be crushed but was saved reason I don't know why but I'm glad it wasn't.
So it has been sitting in the parking lot for years and since he's like some head guy he has the authority to like ,
sell cars at his whim and fancy ,so since he's a good friend of mine he told me I could get it for like V$5000

(image unavailable in archive)

One thing that is letting me down is that it has the wrong FUCKING engine Like fuck, this is what I have on my table.
What do you guys think ?

I have the money and I'm willing to take the risk.

GoverningNick

I'd grab the R32. If it was saved from the crusher then something about it is keeping it here. Also, it'd be child's play to pull a SR20 and sell it, there's always a 240sx that hasn't hit a curb yet, and the vapers always want to do it faster; hence the high sell rate of the SR20. Also, you can't deny the real Nismo wheels.

Jdm_Racer

Yeah man the Sr Skyline is an nice car to put your money bu the r33 also hashis good things like an RB26 and is an quite newer car than the r32 also didnt have any legal problems

EXOTI1CSTANCE

go with SR skyline cause people these days are swapping in SR's cause its expensive to replace any of the RB's components

tyretear

sr20>rb20, go with it, or swap rb26...

EXOTI1CSTANCE

The thing is since people say that SR20's are reliable and much cheaper then an RB26 then go with the R32 although the rb26 can get more horsepower I would prefer an SR20 swapped R32

Lagano

If there are Silvias with RBs, the SR has to go somewhere, right? You can keep it, it's cheaper, but you can have great power as well with some upgrades or even twin turbo. 🙂

Kazern

in all honesty i thought about doing this so i could rb my hatch id buy it

VFLUSH

Finances.......

I never mentioned my profession or what I do I'm the head engineer at a BP Refinery ,which basically I get paid a lot of money not to do shit just to be there since nothing actually goes wrong.
I'm young and all but I thought'd I get more hands on Y'know well I earned my Degree for something.

Enough about me I'm actually posting to talk about my Decision after a few of you guys said to go with the SR20 R32 I've chosen to go with you guys on this one
I haven't bought it yet and I've told Chris ( Port Guy )that'll I'll be taking it sometime this week.

The other reason is, I went to my insurance agency and they said since the R33 is a newer model (meaning some lame excuse) and has a RB26 they said insuring a car with that alone will cost a shit ton to get covered, the engine alone made the issue I don't mind paying I have the cash but from you guys and some advice I'm going with the R32 It's cheaper ,insurance is cheaper ,parts are easier to find and it's easier to get licensed...Yayy...

Also having a friend at the port at that rank means......I don't have to pay shipping fees....don't hate me Cali guys please ?....I pay him a small fee he brings my stuff in, that's not illegal...right ?

So I'll be paying and picking her up....getting the car tuned up cause it's been sitting at a lot for 4 years.
getting her cleaned...licensed and added to the fold...probably a dyno and parts run through cuz from the engine bay that's no stock turbo system.

Anyway that was my update for today.

What you guys think ?

EXOTI1CSTANCE

Yay I knew i was right
