LS1 V8 240sx drift car S14

[fellowsalexander]

S15A VSPEC is the one to go for dude!

[tompwh]

id rather a sr20 but that is cool.

[pballskater11]

Stupid ass, that's a disgrace putting a Corvette motor in a s14 smh

[Vanz180sx]

Should I press it and turn it off now?

[sabatondriftclub]

dam if u ever start 2 sell this beast i will fucking buy it lol

[blwn93]

Dont know why people talk crap about this swap. Its great takes best of both worlds into two different classes. Im looking to do the swap to my S14 soon.

[japcar513]

hey how much did this swap cost?!

[TheMdpalmer]

god damn that thing sounds wicked!!!!!! sick!

[TheRedkid13]

#SWAG

[phmaximus]

whats the point of having a massive throttle body with a smaller hose leading up to it then back to a large AFM, why not have that pipe the same size as the throttle body and AFM??

[DannyakaExGun]

damn!!

[Op180]

sound it¨s just incredible

[HAMMERxHCA]

Anybody know what that is attached to the inside of the hood? (With the red, thicker gauge wires connected to it). I thought it might be an underhood light, but that's some overkill wiring for a light !!

I'm just curious . Thanks

[phmaximus]

@HAMMERxHCA battery safty cut off switch, normally there would be a blue triangle sticker with a lightning bolt point to it

[HAMMERxHCA]

@phmaximus Ah, thanks. I was just curious what the hell that thing was LOL

[93fuelslut]

For all the Nissan fans goin "you f*cked that car".......how did he f*ck that? Would it be faster if the original motor was in or even the biggest nissan motor? Stick to runnin ur mouth because that's all u import fags got thatl run....but why did u go with the shitty import exhaust? Sounds like a bunch of bee's u done pissed off

[TheExoticGod]

@ Irishbillmurphy Are you on crack?? The vette engine itself is more capable then any 240sx related engine. It probably needs an exhaust and a cai and that's it.

[Jerrydances]

I hate the swap but I'm at least somewhat glad its a vette engine and no piece of shit engine from ford :/ my opinion

[LvGuero562]

I love Nissan. I drive a S14. I love muscle. Soo this is for me cuz i really fuckin hate Hondas!

[ucwepn]

Nissan fans say "omg you fucked that car"

Musclecar fans say "its been improved"

will be an eternal argument lol

[USAF2009usaf]

there is nothing better than saving money by putting a vette engine in this car rather than spending 20k to make a damn ricer engine legit....light car+badass motor= this 240sx



[80v8camaro]

@USAF2009usaf true

[soimadouche]

yeser reeee

[irishbullmurphy]

Just ruined a perfectly capable car

[fender722]

But why? Just.... like why??? No just no

[ilovetails123]

not irish stop pretending!

[robrobcharles]

is that a zenki hood with kouki headlights? can you do that?lol

[jmadd9000]

what do you guys do about the rear end gears. im under the impression that you would need higher gears ratios cuz the v8 dosent rev like the 4cyl (i mean in cruzing) how are the rpms in top gear on the hwy at say 70? GREAT RIDE!!

[DaHolyWarrior3147]

WIll you marry me 240SX?

[GodsNotReal95]

corvette that must be why it sounds like shit...

[vetis24]

OMG that was the gayest beginning words someone could ever say... ok here we go... goood

[awirefreak]

@YOGUGLY Not an M10!! Hah Fact I beat you!!

[jet2067]

Only people who don't know anything about cars comment on the rocker cover

[AzHappyHookerz]

Sr20-Rb24 are about 100 pounds more lighter than an LS1 anyone who says otherwise about a V8 apposed to a 4 cylinder is ignorant and doesnt know shit

[N8shft3R]

this is nice =) oh yeah "Dai Yoshihara" has the same set up (pretty much) so of course its going to rock... power to wight all good .. fun times =)

[NastyBuilt]

Sounds like shit

[metallidog94]

all that work and they run that shitty exhuast, loud pipes save lives

[couzinkae]

@TheRealPinkNinja You do realize the ls1 has an aluminum block as opposed to a cast iron block. The ls1 does weigh more than a ka, but not by much (not anywhere close to double).

[TheRealPinkNinja]

And guess what.. the ls outweighed them all

[TheRealPinkNinja]

yes... because twice the con-rods, twice the pistons, twice the heads, twice the exhaust manifolds... a crank that has to support 8 pistons and con rods and a probably close to twice the material in the block, equates to less weight than a fucking 4 banger....

I'm not hating on the LS at all... I plan on putting one in my own S14.

But people need to get their facts right... It's not lighter.. End of story...

there was even a thread on some site where someone weighed the LS, KA, SR, and VQ

[Shaqquee]

just came out from the box?

[tj1229]

haha ppl r fuckin retarderd..... smh nd tbh bad ass car my buddy is bout to do the same thing to his 240 the LS1 is a bad ass engine 300+hp to the wheels is more then enough to slide sideways all day long

[patiscool11]

The LS family is the best thing that ever happen to these cars so stfu.... N/A throttle response is unbeatable...and LS1's are pretty cheap nowadays... Can't afford one? Get a real job.. dont ever compare the shitty KA.. or even sr to an LSX.. there is a reason why pros.. use v8's.

[conley916]

Camera man sounded like mr garrison lol. And for the douche who dropped a v8 in a 40 did you have fun spending 10k on that motor swap? Smh

[kostistau]

why in the hell would a human put a v8 in a 240sx????? is he crazy??

[punkthrasher13]

@kostistau adds way more torque and power for drifting

[Vaicurious]

@spikekilla117

I'll state a fact, here's a good one;

yo momma.

[dripdropdrip4]

you should have pressed it an turned it off 1 minuet an 51 seconds ago

[Vaicurious]

The LS1 is aluminum, and much lighter than some crappy iron block 4 cylinder with 1000lbs worth of intercooler tubing and turbo.

Also, the cameraman sounds like a total princess.

[usedgoldfish]

Like a lil steak in my rice!!

[YOGUGLY]

@usedgoldfish lmao

[KiDHakKER]

amazing, btw way to almost crash lol

[ksegura14]

wtf a fartcan on a v8...

[Guitarrassdeamor]

So why does it still sound like a ricer?

[michaelm610]

@Guitarrassdeamor what kind of ricers have you heard...

[littleAE86thatcould]

V8? I dont want to live in this planet anymore

[TheRealPinkNinja]

I like the retards who think the LS is lighter than an SR or KA.........

[Axon3600]

@TheRealPinkNinja it is lighter, haha...that's why I did it

[YOGUGLY]

@TheRealPinkNinja stfu the ls1 fully loaded is only 40 pounds heavier than the stock ka that comes in the 240 take into account the betterweight distribution that 40lbs means nothing to the integrity of the car. FYI the ls1 fully built with aftermarket parts all motor is INDEED lighter than the stock ka or any engine people put in these cars. # FACT i win STFU

[MrBakedbread]

@YOGUGLY Any Engine is lighter than any stock engine if you work on it you dumb fuck. Anyone can easily see that it is perfectly possible to make a heavy engine ligher than a not so heavy engine. dont be dumb. Not everyone in the world can afford a fucking ls1 that is fully built. ls1 stock vs ka stock in weight. ls1<ka. Simple math. Get it? Got it? Doubt it.

[petercheez13]

@YOGUGLY the engine hangs almost 6 inchecs over the front axle dipshit..... weight distribution is shit when u swap a v-8 into any 240. 'its says corvette here" someone give this guy a college degree

[PapeNinja]

@YOGUGLY Here's what a fully dressed (minus the exhaust mani's) LS1 + T56 weigh

609lbs

no fluids.

Now everyone can quit claiming LS1 = lighter than SR and KA, lol

With aftermarket clutch, top mount exhaust manifold, external wastegate, cast pan, oil, and alternator.

No water, starter, air filter, MAF, intercooler & piping...

349.8 LBS

With aftermarket intercooler, complete intake piping and MAF...

365.9 LBS

add 90lbs if you are using a KA transmission

[houstone88]

@TheRealPinkNinja youre a retard

[ochimwe77]

@TheRealPinkNinja i like the retards who like these shitty imports LAWL

[DMPRODUCTIONS98]

@TheRealPinkNinja I like the retards who think that they arent. because their wrong. Bitch, their not heavier. they're made with less fucking metal than a fucking ks or sr. stfu. plus they make 4 times the power. go sit the fuck down. v8 beats v6 or v4 any day of the week.

[jaysuzFTW]

@DMPRODUCTIONS98 you mean inline 4?

[PwninDaNoobz]

@DMPRODUCTIONS98 v4? Less metal? just stop before you embarrass yourself

[wagerman55]

MY 240SX DRIVING IN THE RIGHT SIDE IN USA

[fedrozx]

the camera guy sounds like peter griffing of family guy...

[FrankiethePirate813]

@fedrozx He Sounded More Like Mr Rogers to me..lol

[michaelm610]

@FrankiethePirate813 sounded more like flanders to me

[FrankiethePirate813]

@michaelm610 LMAO ,, yea he does actually.. hahahah.. good 1 bro

[michaelm610]

Is that a Zenki hood on a kouki front end? it kind of makes it look like an S13 silvia from a distance haha

[michaelm610]

Did I hear flanders in the beginning?

[japcar513]

@michaelm610

HAHAHAHAHA

[corey788237]

im sorry, but you just dont put a v8 in that kind of car....it doesnt work. you dont put a big engine sound in a small car.....

[lazy1d]

ned flanders is the camra man

[akrongoblin13]

whats with the hood? looks like its from an s13 silvia

[ricenbeansAZ]

you jus killed a good s14 witt that corvette engine you are a desgrace!!!!

[altruism1111]

Oh yes look at we got here , we wana see the main part, it says corvette lol

[IsmokeTouch]

@mzzmcake thats what I hate aswell

[teamEP789]

thats a rice burger.

[Seandude23]

dude, kickass, thats some sweet rice.

[y0utUBeH8r]

@CombatEngineer2012 yea i dono but i mean , american engine in a Japanese car? come on... lol

[y0utUBeH8r]

@CombatEngineer2012 they put the corvette engine in this car....

[y0utUBeH8r]

dumb.. corvettes suck

[b00stinz]

Dat Car

[thokih1]

DONT EVER, EVER PUT A SPOILER ON THAT CAR.

[myamericanpie]

lol imagine an LS9 ?!?! :0

[Bip01arBear]

@myamericanpie the ZR1 LS9 is too big to fit.

[myamericanpie]

@Bip01arBear that would be cool though what about the engine in the zo6 whats that a ls7 or something would that fit

[Bip01arBear]

@myamericanpie i think up to the ls6 would fit ls7+ is too big. but i dont kow for sure. ill look into it

[RDavis240lsx]

@Bip01arBear All LS series engines have the same external dimensions so ANY LS series engine will fit no problem. The size of the engine listed (5.7L, 6.0L, 6.2L, 7.0L, etc.) is in reference to the displacement. Which is an internal dimension to the engine and does not affect the external size of the motor.

[mrchoppaboy]

mmmmmmmm kaaayyyy

[Brendon00000]

I own a 240 and their KA24's are shit no matter what you do, now the chassis is great cause its easy to get parts for and has alot of engine space so you have a wide variety of engine swaps: sr20, rb20, rb25, rb26, ca18, 2jz, or go NA with a ls1, easy to get parts for and has some nice power and torque, american cars are ugly, american engines are decent

[Brendon00000]

who needs a ls3/6/7/9 swap in a 240? ls1 does the job, Im no expert but werent ls1's connected to a 6 speed? maybe just the older ones were 5 speeds

[Barik1992]

Придурки , Нисанево , отличные движки делают ... А ваш ебучий V8 вообще не в тему. Японцы дело делают.

[kjkkuhi8]

the guy fliming this reminds me of a gayer version of the "would you look at this" dude

[KevMan2316]

Nice! I may do something like this in the future. 1 question what did you use for a tranny?

[MrTempleballs]

@KevMan2316 the guy with the camera...

[Bravehear71992]

rename this to shit powerslide in a street

[blindfoo]

this is disgusting.

[LentzCustomCreations]

Interesting what you can throw a Corvette engine into these days

[osklda]

WHY!.....

[fad3ddarkstar]

look up Mazda Miata ls1 driveby. the v8 is only a 200 pound difference from the stock engine, and it balances out the miata 47-53 so it's almost balanced perfectly. v8's you can do more with. it's reliable

[92mmm]

fuck that engine must be heavy ???

[1DAONLYTRUNECIOS]

cant wait to see what you all reaction to the 370 coming out with a ls1 in the future.

[DJSkipmaticRJZ]

...



[ThAiStIx1]

Nice car!!

[LotsaEntertainment2]

you can hear a lot of turbulance from that pipe I think you'd probly gain quite about more power out of it if you stepped the size down a bit

[TheJunior3600]

why is he gettiong in the car so weird?



[xcalic3600]

@TheJunior3600 It's those roll cage, bar things he has in there. He has to climb over one to get in.

[NickeyBeaverTV]

wow.

[djsluttyseal]

did u use the 240 tranny



[RDavis240lsx]

Lighter than an SR20 or RB26 swap or stock KA (remember, turbos have weight too), better weight distribution than any of the three, better reliability and parts availability, more average HP stock, and most potential for HP. What's not to like?

[nitrojoe9]

@RDavis240lsx and not to mention it actually has a good sound

[SpikeRazzor]

@RDavis240lsx I know right, it amazed me when I found out the LS1 is lighter than the stock motor lol. I knew cast iron was heavy, but fuck that's embarrassingly heavy.

[sidewayznut2009]

@RDavis240lsx actually only lighter than the an RB swap but its still close enough in wieght to a KA-t or even the SR20det that performance heavily out weighs the difference

a SR is still around 100lbs lighter even turbo but the KA with a turbo could easily wiegh the same either way a whole SR swap is cheaper than a used LS1 6 speed trans

[spaceoner1987]

@RDavis240lsx yah buddy ....I have an sr swap, my mechanic has an ls1...they are not lighter in the least bit...even including weight of intercooler, piping, and turbo....parts are also READILY available for SR's just because of the popularity (not to mention much cheaper)...Sr's are more efficient and put out more horsepower per liter...as far as potential goes an LS1 has more, and it does have more horsepower stock. I would go 2JZ if anything.

[RDavis240lsx]

@spaceoner1987 There are several documented swaps that are several pounds lighter swapping from an sr20 to ls1 on silviav8forums so I would check to see if your mechanic has a truck motor(it's alot cheaper so some go that route). Not to mention better weight distribution from getting the weight of the hotside off the nose. And I didn't say it had the most HP stock; I said it had the most AVERAGE HP stock. Meaning under the curve ie. usable power.

[mzzmcake]

@RDavis240lsx i hate that i dont have it. thats whats to hate haha

[PattMyGun]

@RDavis240lsx The Ammount of fuel it drinks.

[RDavis240lsx]

@PattMyGun You do realize an LS1 in a corvette often gets over 30 hwy right? Google it. Just because it's powerful doesn't mean it isn't efficient. It isn't your grand dad's big block...... Now if you drive like I do you'll get shit for mileage but it won't matter if it's a 4 banger or v8 if you are in the throttle all the time.

[bigdudebr92]

@RDavis240lsx what about a 2jz?

[92RB20Monster]

@RDavis240lsx if you were a true Nissan lover you would hate LS1 or LS7 or any LS swaps at all that involve going into a Nissan..almost every 240 drifting these days has a LS and in my opinion its ruining a perfectly good 240,if you have any pride in owing a Nissan..keep the motor Nissan as well.ide have a RB over a LS any day..

[jdmhum]

@92RB20Monster agree

[TheMrRichard]

@92RB20Monster It's the fact that the Chevy V8 comes with more than enough natural power against the laggy turbocharged 4-banger that is almost always required to make power relative to that of a GM LS V8. For drifting, I'd much rather have instant torque, than peak horsepower at 6,000rpm.

[jdmhum]

@RDavis240lsx the gross sound

[arcticmonkey487]

@RDavis240lsx lighter than a sr? mayme a iron block ka but definitely not an al. sr. unless the ls is carbon fibre :P

[free2run06]

@RDavis240lsx remember V8s have 4 more cylinders than an sr20 and 2 more than an rb26 as far as weight goes. hmm...i dont disagree about the upsides of a v8. just the fact that you can't count cylinders.

[jakecarlos]

"ok here we go, who's a good boy?" lol

[DIENAMICProductions]

i love v8's and stuff.. but shit.. you just dont put a vette engine in a s14.. thats like putting a honda engine in a bus. it just doesnt make sense

[voodooblock17]

@DIENAMICProductions if you have ever seen or drove one in real life you wouldnt say that

[rcHUNTER1555]

you dont put a v8 in a S14

[hondacrazy16]

@rcHUNTER1555 but they did and its boss as fuck

[FEASTJAPAN]

Great car, great sound, shame we have a corny speaker lol.

[Smackin11ify]

thats the sound i make when i jizz in my dreams

[iam1g2]

what kinda of exhaust is that?got an ls1 going in my 98 and want it to sound just like yours. any help would be great!!! cats or resonators?

[fanboyandchumchumhel]

Wow such big exost

[MrNiteryder]

you should swap some dual exhaust in there with flowmasters it'll sound nutz

[alan180sx]

Fuk i think that things badass, at least hes used a good chassis, not like most american pieces of shit that cant turn corners...

[S13Sldewayz]

@240sx93coupe lol, and your KA does what?

[715MEaTbaLL715]

camera dude sounds like old guy from family guy

[n9athan]

the exhaust is hella confusing

[huwbertoo]

did you used to shoot porn? okay here we go..good

[GuitarGuy8525]

That Japanese s13 hood looks KA-LEAN.

Nice car bro.

[jp20det]

is the camera man a fucking flamer?... -_-

"we wanna see the main part... it says corvette here"

fucking giant douche wount let me enjoy a vid of a nice 570sx... lol

[willbgrill]

its a hybrid

[Minimanu92]

Poor 240sx

[TheRickRod]

The guy filming made me laugh my ass off !!!

Yes siree

[sire310eg6]

good god man!

[kurlyfries95]

one guy wears short shorts and the other sounds like a pervert "oh my, look what we have here" what has america come to?

[fastodie]

@kurlyfries95  LMAO

[bsktballfvr1]

@kurlyfries95 Look at the license plate...

[kurlyfries95]

@bsktballfvr1 you bastard, im blind. i cant read licence plates.

[PhantomGett]

I believe Dai Yoshihara said it best: "Sure a fully built SR20 will be able to keep up with a V8, but for $5,000 you get a turnkey 500 HP engine that's reliable." Or something to that extent. Also, All Aluminum V8's don't screw up the weight Distribution too much, or so I've read.

A company called Sikky makes Engine/Transmission mount/Swap Kits for LS into S chassis vehicles.

A (probably stupid) question: will this thing pass emissions? (I live in NY and I own a 96 and OBD-II is a bitch)

[stang46100]

bad ass built sounds amazing

[chimaera1855]

what GB u use???i want to swap this engine in my TVR chimaera.it has a T5gb

[droidlife209]

A Corvette engine in a smaller and way lighter car? Can you say beast?

[Evil5639]

Most of you have no clue what your talking about. Now days in america, its alot cheaper to throw a v8 in a shitbox 240, they make 10x better drift cars with less amount of shit done to the engine. Plus you can easily get anything you need for any v8 over here.

[BruzedHQ]

why run it out of 1 can??

[Rodhizzzle]

such a shame...

[wuntyme]

everything mixing up....lol thats a mean japanese woman haha fuk that BITCH!!! LMAO

[Basketball470]

that thing is off its tits

[ChevysphinX]

0:24 Plz dont do it if you don't know how, I'd hate this thing to crash.

[cliquehop]

Change that damned exhaust.

[Zeferint]

LS1 swaps are very popular in this car because they're lightweight and are much easier to obtain then a RB25DET or a SR20DET. They've got a lot of torque, they're very inexpensive to modify and most importantly they're easy to fix when they break. Perfect for a low-budget drift car.

[williamchop]

aww its a trailer queen isnt it. so sad.

[TheZaco1994]

Sounds nasty !

[MrAndroiden]

i love it maybe i to will swap my CA to an LS1 when i have the money..Was it expensive?
