zohanisback Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I'm favoring swapping in an R200 and fabbing up a front mount. I don't want to go too far out with my pumpkin choice because of fitment issues. If I can use an R200 and get a CLSD diff and find axles to handle 500 ft lbs of torque, why bother spending extra time with another pumpkin that may require extra fab to fit. That is, unless you are snapping axles. Mack, what stub axles/halfshafts are you using and what HP can they handle? I was reading back somewhere that someone with a V8 swap was snapping axles while dropping the clutch at high rev (drag racing). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mack Posted February 4, 2013 Share Posted February 4, 2013 I am running stock 280ZX turbo CV shafts right now. I have a 280zx and I realize this is the model specific section, but I thought I would chime in anyway. It seems as though the CV axles will handle a boatload of power. There are a few people running them with slicks and 500lbs/ft plus v8 swaps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
