I may not do it myself, I may not like most inport engines, but given the chance I'd build a Mazda 20B 3 rotor Rat/Hot Rod.... so the hell with everyone saying it's non-traditional and a waste of a Hot Rod, it's his car, so go to hell. He can do with it as he pleases.
Besides all the Resto guys are going "OMG, he's chopped the top. What a waste."
The only reason I gave you a thumbs up was because the rod is very unique, but spend $150 on a Sony Cybershot camera - please. The film quality sucks brother!
for a vehicle to be considered true 4wd it has to have a high and a low selectable transfercase, this is what would be considered all wheel drive, still pretty sweet build, and very unique
@naturalyshocked Finally somebody with a brain. Ive owned my share of pushrod engines but i know that a 32 valve v8 is better than a 16 valve. Many people are ignorant to the fact that mercedes make similar displacement v8 with 32 valves. The bimmer 4 liter 8 cylinder is alot more revvy, but the mercedes is alot more like what we are used to here in the states. I really wish we wouldnt shun technology. Could you imagine a 9 or 10 liter engine with 32 valves, that would be insane.
@naturalyshocked I just brought up the displacement arguement because i had the feeling that sombody would try to tell me that a turbo big block 2 valve engine would be better. I was just saying when you are talking equal displacement, the 32 valve engine will always be better. If they can make 100hp per liter on 4 cylinders then i expect a 5.7 to make 570 hp with natural asperation Also i dont really consider the rocket a merc because brabus throws away most of the stock mercedes stuff.
many americans have a problem and are scared to ride a fiesta to their work.
they think it's a dangerous small car.
some even believe their old tech engines are more fuel efficient than european cars.
but the fact is, they are not. even the european importer for GM cars went bankrupt, Kroymans. they sold less than 1000 cadilacs in 10 years in the netherlands, read that yesterday.
: (
i wish i could test 98 octane (euro) vs a 91(usa), or 95(euro) vs 87.
I think both OHC and OHV have their own advantages . Have you looked at the size of a LS7 corvette's 7.0 L engine its way smaller than any dual overhead cam V8 or V6 out there, they weigh less than engines that have half the displacement , they are very cheap to manufacture for the kind of performance they deliver . They are almost bullet proof , cheaper and easier to fix cuz of their simplicity . Again way easier to get good performance out of them cuz they are simple.
@naturalyshocked many americans do have to have a huge vehicle but not me. I have a 4th gen chevy camaro with a 5.7 liter, that i never drive. I havent driven it in over 3 years. Cars like that just arent practical, I drive a 1.8 liter suzuki as my daily driver. I just like small cars more than massive cars. I agree about bmw, you can make alot more power than is usable. A few months ago this guy make 800hp with a m30b35 in performance bmw magazine. He made that much power with a 1980s inline 6
@donwonjon420 it depends on which block it has in it, the late 4th gens with the LS1 get better gas mileage than many v6 imports and as good as some I-4s! If you stay off the gas, which I know is hard to do when you have 300 ponies waiting to run free, but me and my buddy took his on a road trip and averaged 28 mpg highway, and 22 when we were just cruising around town
I kinda like the fact that some people are putting the middle finger up to conventional cars and just enjoying modifying and driving their insane cars, screw greenpeace id rather die at 200mph in a ball of horribly un-enviromentaly friendly smoke than live forever and be constantly bored! Do something radical, you may just enjoy it.

Wow a volvo engine in a hot rod? Thats just plain weird to me I'm used to seeing the usuals... the 302 ford or 350 chevy. This is definitely a different kind of hot rod in my book haha
Four-wheel drive, 4WD, 4x4 ("four by four"), or AWD ("all wheel drive") is a four-wheeled vehicle with a drivetrain that allows all four wheels to receive torque from the engine simultaneously.
No! it's not you stupid fucking moron! What are you, 15 years old? Tyipical youtube juvenile "know it all." Look it up and do some reading. Or better yet, Do some mechanic work on these systems like I have. They never give power simultaneously. 4X4 is usualy a 70/30 spilit primarily to the rear wheels. whereas, AWD is close to 50/50. Also U CAN'T use 4X4 all the time. Its not made for that. Thats why on some vehicle, they have disabling caps at the hubs. You will damage it like that....
im 29 and been a CERTIFIED ASE mechanic for 10 years asshole! Dont you dare tell me otherwise! And also, that definition is straight, word for word, out of the dictionary!!! Slow your "know it all" ism there dickhead.
Pretty stupid answer for an ASE certified mechanic. You need to get certified in some other areas. What have you tested on?? Starting and electrical systems? I can tell you have not tested for drivelines yet becasue your little "simultaneously" theory was retarded.
Oh no, not the dictionary. I mean The dictionary just cant be wrong can it. I bet you also believe everything you hear on the news also? Kill your self.
Look mother fucker, THAT VERY CAR was featured in Hotrod Magazine. They gave all the information on how it works. Look it up online. Its all wheel drive. Not 4X4 You dont know your ass from a hole in the ground. KILL YOUR SELF!!! You are a waste of blood.
@heatherandpaul2 I didn't think it was 70/30 spilt, it is split a little bit, but it's more like 48/52 in more newer 4x4s, or at least in American trucks I should say
AWD can be used full time and can transfer most of the torque to the front wheels if need be. 4X4 can not. 4X4 always sends most power to the back. SO, shut the fuck up you faggot because you dont know shit!! Try to use a 4X4 system for performance and it just will not work. Its only to get you out of mud or a soft surface and will break after a while on a hard surface. AWD is made for that.
Also, you little know it aLL, CONDISENDING BITCH, AWD can transfer almost all its power to the front if need be, 4X4 can not. Learn before you speak, Its part of becoming a man.
@Arcticun -but if all wheels spin, is that not technically 4X4 ?-maybe not, just sayin. Not to be nitpicky, but isn't it true that some 4X4s only have front and rear wheel drive, but in reality, not ALL four wheels are really spinning. I'm no mechanic so forgive me or being clueless.
@zizwop A lot of 4X4, as in your typical pickups, are called 4 wheel drive, but in reality only 1 front and 1 rear will have power. That’s because most trucks have 2 open differentials, they transfer power to the wheel with the least grip. However, you can improve on this by putting some kind of limited slip or locker diff and you will have true power to all 4 wheels, 50/50 distribution. When cars have a different torque distribution, like 60/40 usually it is called all-wheel drive.
@Warblade118 Thanks! that was the technical explanation I was looking for. I know when my buddy put a Detroit locker in his Toyota, that thing could climb anything. I have a first generation Rav4, and I think it's just all-wheel drive. It's quite capable for being just a grocery-getting SUV though, and it's very gutless on the street.
@zizwop No problem. I know a thing or two about cars and I enjoy answering questions. If you have any more general technical or theory questions go ahead and shoot ‘em my way if you like. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll do my best to get you one. Glad to help.
@tpvalley I think you need to re-read my comment again. You didn’t seen to have understood the context of what I was saying. The question was “isn't it true that some 4X4s only have front and rear wheel drive, but in reality, not ALL four wheels are really spinning?” I answered that question simply, to someone who isn’t an automotive tech expert, just an everyday guy with a question. What your doing isn’t really a correction, its adding things on that had little to do with a basic question.
@tpvalley Most 4x4 systems don’t come with a “center differential” and most people who modify conventional 4x4 systems with 2 open differentials to include limited or locker types differentials don’t add a center differential because they don’t intend to run 4wd on the street. What I was describing was what fits most situations. When you explain something to someone who is unfamiliar with something, you speak in generalities first, if they want to know more, THEN you go into specifics.
Actually if you are going to correct warblade118 you should look read up on what your saying , no limited slip will give you true 4 wheel drive no matter what Transfer case you have in it that's why they are limited , you would need a locker or weld it .
The transfer case or center differential as you call it , there are so many different styles from full time to part time ,manual ,electric, gear driven,chain driven ,twin stick , etc etc etc so why the blow off ?
some 4x4 are actually just rwd with selectable 4x4 and no centre diff, some r all time 4x4 with centre diff, these r the main types, the fwd with a viscous coupling and different from rear diff ratios dont count in my book.
Here is a better way to explain it little boy. If you disable the rear axle on a 4X4 vehicle, the crude front system will not drive the vehicle very well. However, If you disable the rear drive on an AWD, The front drive is just like a Front whell drive vehicle's and would drive like normal with out the rear wheels helping. AWD is like front and rear wheel drive at the same time. 4X4 is not. IT IS TOTALY DIFFERENT. I hope you learned something today.
i think u mean all-wheel drive not four wheel any gear head will tell u that there is a difference im not trying to be a prick but it's a common mistake

now Add a Xtrac gearbhox or Sadev, wel any sequectial gearbox.
: )
instead of the bowler and co overhauled tranmissions.
it doesnn't need to have 8 or 11 liter displacement.
the brabus rockets rock over 1000 nm torque, enough to twist axles.
but a multivalve valve burn more efficient.
but thast would give problems on the Seq gearbox unles you can invest several tens of thousands in a gearbox.
i would opt for a seq box, making the car launch faster than a classic 5.7 or what ever.

i don't wanna say anything, but a WRC rally car hits 0-60 in half the time a corvette zr1 does.
with less than 1/3 the displacement, while having 4x4. well it maxes @ ∓ 100m/h, but that depends what gear ratio you choose.
check w3 dot xtract dot com.
i think a nice bmw 3.0 inline 6 mated to a SEQ box, would stun many americans and make raise question marks.

the renault left the pontiac behind on the highway, it wasn't much faster, but the accelleration was.
i had a Golf mk IV 90ps tdi, i toke it to the top and achieve 205km/h on the speedo.
to me this means, with 90ps, i beat a 355hp ford flex in topspeed, not acceleration.

heatherandpaul2 2 years ago
you are a fuckin idiot!!! It is a 4x4 you are just a cube who is sittin in front of the monitor whole day.
And from this crap quality you can see there is no a torquesen differential for eg.
Fuck your self internet idiot!!!!!
It is a grte car, i would like to have one!!! : )

Look mother fucker, THAT VERY CAR was featured in Hotrod Magazine. They gave all the information on how it works. Look it up online. Its all wheel drive. Not 4X4 You dont know your ass from a hole in the ground. KILL YOUR SELF!!! You are a waste of blood.
heatherandpaul2 2 years ago
@heatherandpaul2 I didn't think it was 70/30 spilt, it is split a little bit, but it's more like 48/52 in more newer 4x4s, or at least in American trucks I should say
THizzle80 7 months ago
AWD can be used full time and can transfer most of the torque to the front wheels if need be. 4X4 can not. 4X4 always sends most power to the back. SO, shut the fuck up you faggot because you dont know shit!! Try to use a 4X4 system for performance and it just will not work. Its only to get you out of mud or a soft surface and will break after a while on a hard surface. AWD is made for that.
heatherandpaul2 2 years ago
Also, you little know it aLL, CONDISENDING BITCH, AWD can transfer almost all its power to the front if need be, 4X4 can not. Learn before you speak, Its part of becoming a man.
heatherandpaul2 2 years ago
@heatherandpaul2 This still isn't a "4x4" rod, it's got a Cosworth system which is 60/40 power channeling mainly used in rally cars.
It's built to last.

@Arcticun -but if all wheels spin, is that not technically 4X4 ?-maybe not, just sayin. Not to be nitpicky, but isn't it true that some 4X4s only have front and rear wheel drive, but in reality, not ALL four wheels are really spinning. I'm no mechanic so forgive me or being clueless.
zizwop 1 year ago
@zizwop A lot of 4X4, as in your typical pickups, are called 4 wheel drive, but in reality only 1 front and 1 rear will have power. That’s because most trucks have 2 open differentials, they transfer power to the wheel with the least grip. However, you can improve on this by putting some kind of limited slip or locker diff and you will have true power to all 4 wheels, 50/50 distribution. When cars have a different torque distribution, like 60/40 usually it is called all-wheel drive.

@Warblade118 Thanks! that was the technical explanation I was looking for. I know when my buddy put a Detroit locker in his Toyota, that thing could climb anything. I have a first generation Rav4, and I think it's just all-wheel drive. It's quite capable for being just a grocery-getting SUV though, and it's very gutless on the street.
zizwop 1 year ago
@zizwop No problem. I know a thing or two about cars and I enjoy answering questions. If you have any more general technical or theory questions go ahead and shoot ‘em my way if you like. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll do my best to get you one. Glad to help.

@Warblade118
correction - u will have power going to one wheel front and one wheel rear unless u have limited slips at each end.
most truck called 4wd r in fact rwd unless u select 4x4, this simply connects front prop but they have no centre diff so will wind up on road.
to have full time 4x4 u need a centre diff, which makes 3 diffs in total.
to have different front rear split u need centre diff but it cannot be limited slip much as front and rear props r at different speeds all the time.

@tpvalley I think you need to re-read my comment again. You didn’t seen to have understood the context of what I was saying. The question was “isn't it true that some 4X4s only have front and rear wheel drive, but in reality, not ALL four wheels are really spinning?” I answered that question simply, to someone who isn’t an automotive tech expert, just an everyday guy with a question. What your doing isn’t really a correction, its adding things on that had little to do with a basic question.
Warblade118 1 year ago
@Warblade118
"when u fit limited slip diffs to each axle all wheels will be spinning"
u missed out the centre differential, u must explain that part or the person geting advice will wonder why they still have only one end driving.
tpvalley 1 year ago
@tpvalley Most 4x4 systems don’t come with a “center differential” and most people who modify conventional 4x4 systems with 2 open differentials to include limited or locker types differentials don’t add a center differential because they don’t intend to run 4wd on the street. What I was describing was what fits most situations. When you explain something to someone who is unfamiliar with something, you speak in generalities first, if they want to know more, THEN you go into specifics.

@tpvalley
Actually if you are going to correct warblade118 you should look read up on what your saying , no limited slip will give you true 4 wheel drive no matter what Transfer case you have in it that's why they are limited , you would need a locker or weld it .
The transfer case or center differential as you call it , there are so many different styles from full time to part time ,manual ,electric, gear driven,chain driven ,twin stick , etc etc etc so why the blow off ?
90bronco1 1 year ago
@90bronco1
it was correction of an answer given to a novice.
some 4x4 are actually just rwd with selectable 4x4 and no centre diff, some r all time 4x4 with centre diff, these r the main types, the fwd with a viscous coupling and different from rear diff ratios dont count in my book.
tpvalley 1 year ago
Here is a better way to explain it little boy. If you disable the rear axle on a 4X4 vehicle, the crude front system will not drive the vehicle very well. However, If you disable the rear drive on an AWD, The front drive is just like a Front whell drive vehicle's and would drive like normal with out the rear wheels helping. AWD is like front and rear wheel drive at the same time. 4X4 is not. IT IS TOTALY DIFFERENT. I hope you learned something today.
