FIrst my rims are horrible, than there ok when painted black , now my cars horrible, now my fenders are to much after i was told i couldnt do it.... Lol club s12 ftw..... Only here have Ive been told they look like shit..... SOrry its not bone stock with crown vic rims running the stock vg making 130whp and looks generic like every other one. My car looks dope ive been told this a billion times on local forums....
vg30et>ka24et
Agreed
fact Both KA and VG can support 400WHP on stock internals.as i said before VG's are great engines, but so are KA's
hahah NIPPLES, sam. Nipples!
which one is the best bang for the buck for reaching around 275hp. that is my goal and i must reach it with any powerplant
You said you have an 84 hatch so it should be safe to assume that you have a ca20e or ca18et. If that is the case the ka24e or de is going to be the easiest way to get 275hp (especially if you are measuring at the crank). At least between a vg30e and a ka24e or de.
im not one sided.in my driving opinion the vg is a lot funner and more responsive and ready for spirited driving.
the problem with the vg is where are you going to put the turbo?
ka-t, definitely. the problem with the vg is where are you going to put the turbo?
VG's not the issue VG is and AMAZING engine but it's the engine space in a S12. he's not a Se, so he doesn't have a VG in his, he's asking about putting one in. it's a very tight fit, even for the Z31 it's a tight fit. and Z32 TT drivers have a harder time working in them. I use to own a Z31 and did alot of playing. it's a GREAT engine it's proven it's self over and over and over again. but again, our S12's don't have the engine space a Z31 or a Z32 have. I suggest a VG33ER or VG30ER if you even go the VG route because you would have to cut the firewall for a turbo or you can do it MC's way rear mount exhaust turbo. or just go with a vortec supercharger.EDIT: I saw the Z31 build thead alot of crap had to be custom made to make it fit.people who do VG30DETT swaps in S12's are insane and props to them.
