I just bought a 91 S13 witha the ka24de and i think thats fun for a four cylinder i could just imagine another four. scary. Was just wondering for future reference is it easier to swap the LS1 or the VH45.
dont wanna be bias here cuz im a nissan person, but i think this is a better V8 than the LS1/LT1 that most people like to use. push rod technology works, but its old and outdated, i guess thats why those motors have to be so big (5.7/6.0) to make decent HP, and torque.
I like them both, but the LS14 has more options as for aftermarket performance upgrades, but the 450SX has some parts comming out again, (since it was an Indy motor long, long ago) and it's all Nissan.
I made it myself out of 1/2" T6 aluminum, and notched the trans for a flush fit. It took a freakin' long time too. If I had to do it again, I would of bought an adapter from Mazworx or something, but time was pressing.
NISSAN POWER BABY FTW!!!!

I love v-8s, and I like how you decided to keep the car all Nissan.
I'd have gone with an LS1 though lol

UHasCrabsTimes69 2 years ago
Yes, I fab'd mine up, I used a 6mm piece of wood to clear the p/s rack and then made the mounts in the car.
To get the hood closed, I cut out the bracing, then bowed it in the back with a 6" long 2x4.

how much did the whole swap cost
rb26xs14 2 years ago
I have about 2k in the swap for materials, but if I didn't make my swap parts it would be a lot higher.
slamdbusa 2 years ago
sorry i notice things like this, but why don't the reverse lights work?
Corkoth55 2 years ago
because I didn't hook them up
slamdbusa 2 years ago
oh... haha why not? isn't that illegal?
Corkoth55 2 years ago
nope, not inspected here.

its actually a 240sx with a 4.5 motor in it,
stock 240's come with 2.4 liter motors
[hence the "240"]
450sx was never a production car

Ive seen some of your other videos; which one did you like better, the 450sx or the ls14?
ThaCrunksta187 3 years ago
I like them both, but the LS14 has more options as for aftermarket performance upgrades, but the 450SX has some parts comming out again, (since it was an Indy motor long, long ago) and it's all Nissan.
So, my answer is "Both."
