could this work!?!

[Mitsubishi]

could i put a 3000gt vr4 (v6 twin turbo) motor in a 95-99 gsx shell?

[Boostn2g]

Anythings possible. Do you have 10k laying around?

[Mitsubishi]

no but i can get it, would that be a fast car?

[awd-drifter]

hell yeah. gotta do alot of fabrication and wire work.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

And it will still be slower than most of the 4 cylinder DSMs and Evos.

[Speedfreak]

Epic waste of time.

[awd-drifter]

it has 2 more cylinders so it's gotta have more power. more power=more speed yo!

[DoughtCom]

Man, I don't know. I think spending the time/money into a built 4G63 would be better spent.

^ This coming from a guy who just spent $10k swapping a Subaru, those are words worth their weight in... anything really fucking light and really fucking expensive.

Yeah but I didn't swap in an H6 with custom fabbed work did I

lol im pretty sure a stock vr4 engine in a 97-99 gsx would be faster than the stock 4g63 that would come in it!!

You do realize that there are LOCAL cars making 600-700-800-1000whp on a 4G63 right?

The point is why try and reinvent the wheel? If you have the know-how and expertise to do this then I am all in for pics and a project thread, but realistically you can do so much with the 4G63 w/o doing a crazy swap it makes the idea seem laughable (thus some of the responses in this thread).

Besides, enough stuff breaks on these cars as it is!

oh yea i totally get that but the vr4 comes with 320hp stock and i could put not to much money into it to make it 400-500hp and i would be good right there i would need alot of money into the 4g63 to make it push 400-500 dont u agree on that?

[A//// Guy]

Thats a retarded idea.

[Mitsubishi]

okay im not disagreeing or agreeing with anyone i would just like to know from the people that are saying it is a bad idea, why? i would like some more info than just "thats retarded" please explain y i shouldnt do it?

[A//// Guy]

Because you can make more power with an easier platform by sticking with the 4g63. The TT motor is hard enough to work on in a 3S, the dsm engine bay is only tighter.

[Mitsubishi]

yea but cant u make more power outa the v6 TT

[A//// Guy]

Not really.

Just throw in a TT V8 instead or maybe a V12.

[Mitsubishi]

that would be a lil to much cash and if a v6 has to have fabricating done could a v8 TT or a v 10 even fit..

[turbotalon1g]

Hell yez u kan mek mo powa wid da vsizzle, twice the turbo twice the power, 2 16Gs on pump at like 12psi make over 400psi, you'd have to max a 16G on a dsm to even get that much.

2 16Gs maxed out on a 3S would get you over 700 easy, thats insane hp.
I say if you can do it, then get it done it would be so badass.
