jimmy-d Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Try google,its been done before but hope your not planning to put it on the road,legally,because that probably wont happen due to regs etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezzaclub Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 hmmm... skinny little car, wide engine.... one would have to ask why, when there are so many straight fours around. Any particular reason, above having some old Commonwhore V6 lying around the garage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwarf Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Gday. A couple of handy hints for you so that you time here will be well spent. The main one is make your posts readable to anyone over the age of 25. SMS speak is a pain to anyone not used to it, and as older people are more likely to have the answers you seek, you're excluding a large slab of experience when you do so. Spelling and punctuation are your friends. The other one is search and you shall seek. Many topics have been covered before. The rides and projects threads are a wealth of knowledge, and if it's not covered somewhere in there, then it probably can't be done. Try putting more info into you post. We can make many different suggestions, but if you only have $300, not many of them will be practical. You have to keep in mind that we get asked very opened ended questions like yours about once a day at the moment, so if you don't have a think about the questions you ask, you're not going to get answers you're happy with.

YLD 10S Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 The main one is make your posts readable to anyone over the age of 25. SMS speak is a pain to anyone not used to it, and as older people are more likely to have the answers you seek, you're excluding a large slab of experience when you do so. I'm 16, and even I cannot stand 'wen u c peepl tlkin liek dis'. I swear it takes longer to spell it incorrectly than it does to write the full sentence haha. Anyway, V6 into a Ke30 is pretty ghetto, seen a group called 4play customs put one in a gemini, and modified the 6 from there but getting it engineered and inspected etc is a heap of effort and money, so unless its a budget track car, wouldn't you want to 'do it once, do it right'? i.e 4A, SR, 12a ;) etc well anyway, hope it helped, Ben (: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towe001 Posted June 11, 2011 Report Share Posted June 11, 2011 Question - what type of v6 is being planed for the car ? Lets not assume that its going to be the buick v6, for all we know it could be the 1.8Lt v6 from the Eunos 30X or the 2.0Lt v6 from the Mazda 929 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
