How about doing a compression test before a head swap? If the compression test is good on old heads and i just want to change heads for more flow and smaller combustion chamber cr gain?

I get these fking brain farts when trying to sneak on jalopnik for a moment at work! I really have no excuse though since my previous comment is straight up retarded. Poppa out!

Dyno os a big question too, what brand was used? Dyno shops are a problem as they will teak the results saying “look how much power we found”

It was a total heap truck engine used in big pickups and barge size suvs (excirsion)

Explain (trying to learn, not argue with you)

I remember when a friend of mine bought an nsx for about 18k. Possibly atound 2010? We were all thinking his crazy to spend that much on a honda that aint even fast....

Would hoon with an LS and more modern rims.... a nice wrap wouldn’t hurt either!

The looks are kinda sporty, the brakes are sporty, the shawd is sporty, thats about it, ill take the ss over rlx anyday,

Its been beaten to death by jalopnik comenters but it looks to much like cheap chevy sedans (malibu or impala) to me it looks good. I dont like flashy cars and it would be awesome to spank some mustangs in a “malibu”, honestly it would be my pick for performance sedan under 40 But i was trying to comment with…

You know whats “ugly all around” ? Chevy SS (hence the inpressive numbers sold) I didn’t realize there are visual requirements beyond 4 doors

Howbout the ferrari f400? Cheap to buy, bosch J-Tronic injection, and a th400 transmission same as a ups truck!

How about honda legend/acura rlx? Its has paddles, handles and accelerates well and its 80% rwd when accelerating thanks to SH-AWD (just like the nsx)

Not to critique but sideways on a motorcycle? Thats a different sport than the one you pictured

That nissan already has a v8. I think the price is bonkers. But for 6-8k i would consider it if mechanicals are ok

Some of us like the muscle car looks without the huge size penalty, for example this ford escort is the size of a fiat 500

Every time i see bmw m1 i repost with isdera. a mercedes enngineer working on the mercedes c311 was pissed that they are not going to produce it (think they made 30ish) and started his own company utilizing mercedes parts bin to build awesome supercars with roof mounted rear view mirrors.

My neighbor drives one, every time i pass it im thinking, fresh paint, modern wheels, clean the headlights and it would look modern (30 years later!) Then i was thinking, go to a junkyard and yank the driveline and subframe from an oldsmobile aurora with the shortstar all aluminum v8 and drop it on a lowered trans…

I was crazy about “Clarissa” when i was 11.

Price is wayyy to high, should be abou 5-8 k depending on rust. It has potential, if you look up a little a guy posted the same model but all tricked out with bags, new interior and paint asking less than this thing
