Ls1 swap pics

[Ls1pwr]

ive been working on this thing for a month and im almost finished up with it. its been a pain in the *** the whole time. i used a Daft innovations kit, with an 02 ls1/t56. rich at daft has been a great help to me the entire time. I could not do this swap without his help. here are some pictures of it so far.

some of the pictures are backwards cause of the ****ty camera phone i was using. and i got some eff'd up 5 lug hubs from ebay so i have to send them back and run 4 lugs for now.... and yes those are mustang wheels on the back



had to beat the piss out of the transmission tunnel/firewall part





BACKWARDS

you got any more pictures/info on your paint?

[brandonDavid]

looking sick bro. and you live in jupiter? i wanna drive up and see this thing in person.

[Ls1pwr]

thanks for the responses guys. the swap all together was 10,000 because of alot of little problems and small but expensive parts. got the car for 2,000 its a rust free (except for minor spare tire well rust) 92 coupe. $4500 shipped ls1/t56 with warranty. swap kit from daft innovations $1750 the guy rich who runs daft is full of info and really knows his $hit. i had to get new hubs cause one of them seized up, replaced the ps line. power steering return....etc

the color is the original green that got resprayed?? i think but not 100% sure its a really ****ty job with overspray and runs everywhere. the camera phone makes it look good tho lol.

[Pr0xyPirate]

nice job on the swap definetly a sick creation. Oh found this on the internet thought you would like it

[low91240sx]

NICE man I like it I don't know if it's just from lack of looking hard or what but I've always thought an S13 with an Ls1 would look pretty sweet so this is the first S13 that I've seen with an Ls1 in it let alone a coupe good job bud can't wait to see/hear this thing in action

[Ls1pwr]

lol thats great that they put it in there its a gts-t or base gts skyline. if i were to own a skyline it would be awd with an rb26 i love the ls1 but the skyline is meant to have awd. it would be hard to have that with an ls1 and not to mention the wiring would be nightmare.

[Captain!]

Bad ***!

[tramp_drift240]

i just wanna see a better quality picture of like. the COLOR of green. not really the quality of the paintjob itself. haha

and whats with the random mirror image of some of your pictures?

a couple pictures got me thinking that you had RHD...

[Ls1pwr]

dunno the cellphone is all ****ed up and thinks its upside down so all my pictures are either backwards or upside down. but the earlier ones were taken with a diff phone. i'll get a picture in the light and more of the exhaust etc.

[EnvyStreet]

lookin' good man, nice job on the swap, that thing's gonna be a beast

[naladude911]

[Ls1pwr]

[dillards1234]

Mustang rims? Common man. Nice swap

yeah man you gotta have a piece of more then 2 car companies parts on your car...haha nice swap though

[Ls1pwr]

[Ls1pwr]

Here are more pictures as promised:

heres a picture of my v8 ka24de



HOMIE DONT PLAY THAT!!!



I'm a certified Welder, and i had to use this 15 year old gasless mig welder lol so the welds are the worst ive ever done in my life!!!

Full exhaust pic



And finally done except wiring!!!!

[Usagi21]

wow dude, your going to die @ the speed's that your going to go with this, light car + v8 engine= mean s13,

I would totally request that you record how it sounds tho no. . seriously

Nice job so far, I know some of my friends are envious, so keep up the good work!!

[Ls1pwr]

i cant wait!! i had a 99 trans am with ls1 and same transmission. it had a k&n filter + exhaust cut out and ran 12.8 at 108 with 3600lbs of weight. This car weighed 2483 stock (removed sound deadening and rear seat) so 370rwhp and 2500+ lbs should be a rocket ship.

[srjoe627]

i assume you've finisihed the swap what upgrades did your have to do for the rear end, suspension, and how is the body and frame holdining up. i am in the process of starting a similar build and would like any advice you can give

[Fuel4Blood]

Nice, its gonna sound mean as hell when you start it up.
