Cobalt60 Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 Mitsubishi 2.1L "de-stroker" will rev to 11k. I also like the idea of using the Mitsu 6G7x. Im a huge fan of inline 6s. I dont know if theyre any good but there were Mercedes I6s on eBay really cheap, and the same motors at least used to have a turbo kit available. Not sure if its what youre looking for but I like the Chrysler 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Dont Posted November 3, 2009 Report Share Posted November 3, 2009 its great to see u back in the game i think someone needs to swap in the new evo motor or the mivec v6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt60 Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) Wanting new technology in an old car is the way to be! I feel exactly the same way. Personally, Im trying to stick Mitsubishi with the motor, and am considering a 6G7x swap. My ideas are never popular but whether or not I go 4G6x or 6G7x I want to have MIVEC. Another high tech option that seems to me to have potential is GDI, which Mitsubishi has embraced. GDI and performance never seem to be in the same sentence, but from a technical standpoint I dont see why not. Again, anything inline 6. I dont think theres been a Nissan RB swap with our cars yet. And Im not too familiar with a lot of the newer engines, but some of the smaller displacement V8s appeal to me. The Ford 4.6 is somewhat of an example, but even newer, for example, is the 3.9L V8 used in the RWD Lincoln LS and New Thunderbird. Oh, and if youre going to go with V6, I personally like the 60 degree types. Theres a lot of really sweet 90 degree V6s, but to me a 90 degree V6 is not "new technology". Another swap I think would be really cool is the BMW 4cyl, I think it was called S20 or E80 or something, but its an engine that I often see on 10 best lists, and stock had ITBs (oh yeah ITBs and a turbo would definitely be new).

We did that for him here at GM Design in Detroit. I saw that car about a month ago in a bunch of pieces. Must be nice when you go directly to the car company to get your custom $hit done for you. Nice car for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt60 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) its kinda boring looking, but its an option Indeed. Maybe try to make a custom intake manifold, dual throttle bodies? Then itd look awesome. Or if youve ever seen the 6G73 swap (only one Im aware of) that has already been done in a Quest, that has a large single throttle body right in the center of the engine, fed by twin turbos, also very nice. But, please tell me more about this EJ25. If you dont do this I am strongly considering it as an option. But Im really under the impression it wont fit, or will be very difficult. But yeah I want to know how feasible this is. Oh and that 1UZ Cressida is awesome. Cressidas are definitely a favorite car of mine.

007 Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I wonder if a VQ35DE would fit in there, that would be sexy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobalt60 Posted November 6, 2009 Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 I bet the Nissan V6s would fit in pretty easily, and theres the VQ30DD which has direct injection, which I think is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yokomo Posted November 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2009 (edited) so i did a little more on the EJ engines, found out there all differant widths height and lengthsfirst off is teh EJ20 http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o249/yokomo99/Photo0551.jpgcoming in at 32.5 "s wide 18"s long and 24"s tall next we have the EJ22http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o249/yokomo99/Photo0552.jpgat only 30"s wide and teh same width of 18", but a height of 22"s this is as a stock manifold would be, in this case i was just using his dimensions, all these cars are at 1 place makes it easy lol. and last is a EJ25 Block with single cam headshttp://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o249/yokomo99/Photo0550.jpgits 30.5" wide, 18"s long and and 20"s high in this case with custom intakes a bone stock EJ25 (Sti) engine is what im thinking if i could go this route, even with the Sti trans.heres a pic of an STI tranny http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o249/yokomo99/pic_03.jpg so there's some minor searching on that option, i havn't measured the engine bay on the quest yet, i'm prepared to cut out fender wells ill have to go measure up that mivec this weekendfor giggles, K20 in a bughttp://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o249/yokomo99/Photo0198.jpgif you want to see more on that build http://k20a.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43558 Edited November 6, 2009 by yokomosQUEST Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
