s130turbo Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 Guys I've gone over the forums with a fine tooth comb and I cant find any info on anbody whos done this swap. I've got the aurora 4.0 L in mind and any info especially pertaining to a s130 car on this swap would be appreciated. I've owned one of these cars and must say these engines are terrifying. With just a crappy homemade dump off the note from the exhuast is terrifying and is the main reason for me at least to do this swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike kZ Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I don't think that's been done. Your on your own! Take pics if you do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete84 Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I have heard of people swaping northstars into Fieros, one of those such forums might give you a hand on the how to's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LS1 240Z Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 i saw someone that put one into a F body.. it was definatly interesting and diffrent those motors can be had for cheap though.. the problem is that mods are expensive, youd have a unique car for sure though !

Pete84 Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 What RWD transmissions bolt up? IIRC, most of the Northstars are transverse, not longitudinal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
