xlr8r Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Nice, I was wondering when someone would do a VR38 swap. I'd love to swap a VR38dett into a Datsun. It will never be in my budget though. Quote Link to comment

ArchetypeDatsun Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Yeah this is amazing I'm sure it can achieve those speeds. Quote Link to comment
Komeuppance Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 Its got way too much drag with all those holes in the frontal area. 250mph, doubtful. Mitsubishi turbos ftmfw. -Robert Quote Link to comment

ArchetypeDatsun Posted January 19, 2013 Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 That's the 1936 buick Straight 8 cylinder In there! It's a Vintage class if people wonder why they picked it, it's because of the aero slick design the 240sx has. Same reason the BonSopra 380sx was built. Just look at this straight 8 god damn!

Skib Posted January 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2013 that same body has been run in a few different configurations. the 235mph run was in E/FALT with an Indy v8 in it. Quote Link to comment
