He was referring to the chasis and you were reffering to drivetrain components.
Oh yea no problem I actualy think both will be an issue but I'm new to the s2000 and not an expert by any means.

Hope to hear final results after some track time.
I think he will be just fine.

Your entitled to your opinions but until you have built one or he'll even just for to ride in one they are just that opinions. The chassis handles the extra torque just fine it's not a POS to begin with. First of all most convertibles are stiffer than non because they don't have a roof to help spread the load. If this concerns you than don't do the swap or don't do a turbo with big numbers. Oh wait those cars haven't twisted apart yet either. Things will change when more power is added to anything that's why there are aftermarket companies to sell the upgrades. But it's still doesn't mean that the car is going to fall apart. So if you still need more proof check out some of the videos on YouTube of these cars on the track or ask some of us how many miles we have on them. I know there are some out there with over 10k miles On The swap.

Just my .02 which might be worth more like a grand on this topic.
Cool I will dig up the youtube post you speak of. I respect your comments even though you make money doing this conversion kinda biased.

I thought I brought up valid issues.

People that want this modification may want to know what needs to be done to the car to support that motor.

Thanks for your reply.
Dude, you know there's free porn on the internet right? You seem to have a lot of time to over think shit.

May be you should buy the install instructions book that goes with the kit so you know what the process is instead of speculating.

I can tell you from working with Import muscle on new ideas for the kits we do everything we can including using our engineering resources to insure the kit pieces are strong and the vehicle will work properly.

I know what you were trying to say about torque but with the mindless ranting that you have followed it up with you have lost any credibility.

If you have questions feel free to ask but stop spouting out mindless BULLSHIT especially when you get the answer given to you.

Quit being a dick, Randall

Any further questions or persons curious of the swap head over to the forum and actually learn something about it V8S2000.com


If you find the need to do the swap and enjoy some added power (and another 80-100lbs OMFG OMFG!) head over to importmuscle.com to get the swap guide.

/thread








Jason, Randall..... im awaiting this rear diff swap kit with utmost patience, if i had any to begin with

We just talked to the machine shop today about the mounts. Should have the new billet mounts SOON.

About once a month. Rest of the time they just slide pizzas under the door.
