Pop your hold and tell them you've got a DOHC and then watch their faces go WTF is that??? :S Then tell them it's mad JDM cause it's got the 5 lug swap upfront. lol.

I've heard quite a few times that quad-4 are shitty engines.

Interesting swap though

Re: GM powered Rex
 

high outputs arn't shitty at all.. probably the best of the quads. pretty sure they hit like 700whp stock block and broke the land-speed record quite a few times

Re: GM powered Rex
 

that cars local to me, ive seen it driving around a few times. I always just thought it was a peice of ---- first gen....










aparently it is :P

Re: GM powered Rex
 

the only part of the car I like is the cock thick strut bar of the 10$ ebay variety

Re: GM powered Rex
 

i think i've seen the car on ht

Re: GM powered Rex
 

cheaper than a bseries or hseries, I read on the site that it was a $2005 challenge car. Pretty cool for under $2005 invested

Re: GM powered Rex
 

needs a 4.3l v6

Re: GM powered Rex
 

---- your LIM shitting V6



I saw that car before on Q4F; I always thought GM needed a lighter plant for the motor.




And the L40 caused the Quad 4 bad name, along with the LD2 era 1995

That guy lives in Dayton, saw it at an auto cross event a few months back, definately an interesting swap.
