When you learn this video was taken particularly to capture the sound.

Your welcome?

I'll make sure correct myself next time though.

I could just listen to clips of an LS2 Corvette though, if I wanted just the sound. But the car sounds pretty good and will surprise a lot of drivers.

That aside, THANK YOU for posting the clip. I didn't mean to sound like a **** or anything. Vertically recorded cell phone videos are just a little pet peeve of mine.

LOL. If ever there was a car that DESERVED the rocket bunny widebody, this would be it.

Weapons Grade Performance is selling a swap kit so I've been tight lipped on the details of the swap to protect their intellectual property... Suffice to say it's EPIC!

zoomzoomers · 06-10-2013, 05:41 PM

Can't wait to see some video of this car on a track.

Since there's been enough of the "blasphemy swap!" and "you ruined your car's balanace!" comments, I'll say that the OP now has a very unique, powerful ride! Get that thing on the dyno and on the 1/4 mile so some of us can shut up!

The LS2 is rated for 400hp/400lb-ft at the crank and it's sure to be more reliable that the high boost turbo FA20s out there (in theory). If you want a Turbo FT86 to run against to show off what naturally aspirated/all motor power can do, you have one in Maryland. Oh and great... he'll probably get better gas mileage than me because I have to run e85 to make power....

P.S. I went to Weapon Grade Performance's dyno day back in August 2012 and they had already started talking about this swap. It seems that they finally got their donor car. Tell them congratulations! The only other LS swap in the world is Orido's lol.

Fucking awesome

highlanderd · 06-12-2013, 07:33 AM

Thanks Typer! I'm pretty sure Orido's is a tube chassi race car with a BRZ body on it

. not sure that counts :-D

So much for destroying the OEM balance... Looks like 3% or less of a difference.

That's a huge difference. But are we talking with driver and one passenger? I seem to recall the balance is 55/45 empty. Anyway, I'll leave the gripping about F/R balance to @fatoni though.

if there is a gripe to be had about the f/r balance of this car its that that 56+43=99.

56.6%/43.3% I figured as much from you.
