rudefyet Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 well i've come down to a point... i need to decide what engine i want in my car before i spend any money i'm stuck between a 3.1/3x00 Hybrid Turbo and a N/A high compression 3.4 DOHC the 3.1 would be the easiest since i already have one...but the thought of a high revving 24 valve engine equally makes my nipples hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patgizz Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 3.1 turbo just cause of the ease of working on a pushrod. after i went from 3.1 to dohc it was insane the amount of engine bay space the dohc took up, and maintenance things took so long. when i went to the 3400 i forgot just how much room there was and felt blessed by some divine being for having gone back to a pushrod motor. however when the dohc hits 3k you can't help but smile as it kicks your ass a bit deeper into the seat. never had a problem breaking the tires loose at 3K from a roll.

EurosportZ34 Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 i voted 3.4 for obvious reasons, but make sure it's mated with the getrag 284...that is a very good poll though! i'm in that dilema also if i should swap an LG5 or an LQ1 someday in my Euro.

mfewtrail Posted December 4, 2004 Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 3.1 Turbo/LG5 if you can find the parts to completely convert yours or an entire TGP motor/setup to throw in there. Other then that, I'd probably go w/ a 3400 and mod it a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rudefyet Posted December 4, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2004 i honestly think i've choosen the 3.1 route i'm either going to pick up a UDP or Chip here soon and start modding this bitch... been a year and a half and it's still bone stock it WILL get a Getrag eventually...i loathe autos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gp crazy Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 I picked the 3.4. I like the way it looks and feels when you push on it hard ! If I got a ride in one with a 5 speed it would be wonderful. Even better own one 8) that would be great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THe_DeTAiL3R Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 For a swap - definatly 3.1 turbo! If you wanted a 3.4 just buy a car that already has one, cause that's pretty easy to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
