So I did a V8 Swap on my FR-S yesterday and since so many people wanted a DIY video. Here's some pictures of the Swap first:
Tools Needed: Two Hands Time taken: With all the tools prepared it took roughly 37 seconds as seen in the video but this was done by a professional so it may take 5-10 minutes but never more than 15 minutes! Here is a picture of stock intake. Stock Oil filter position aswell ![]() ![]() ![]() Bro man dood man bro man dood. ![]() The hood obviously doesn't close but everyone knows you don't need a hood to drift amiright? ![]() [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDU9ytUU3ac"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDU9ytUU3ac[/ame] Last edited by Toxicmilk45; 08-02-2013 at 12:09 AM. |

Fantastic video, seamless install. The additional power must be nice. My only concern with the V8 is that you will greatly increase the weight and CoG. Have you noticed any changes in handling?

Wow I think I finally found my next project... But man I'm scared, I never did a swap like this before. I'm definitely going to take the whole 15 minutes!
