What would you suppose causes that? Seriously, call me idiot, but I dunno. A Nos system? It is called a 2-Step. Used mostly for drag racing. Basically keeps you from spinning tires off the line but dumps the extra fuel through as well. Hence why all our rotaries throw fire afterward. Above all else, a rotary will throw a fireball if you have a straight through exhaust and are running a bit rich. Good stuff for those that tailgate you.

The rotary however is completely different, if its blocking something you just have a person grab the otherside and you move it. -------------------- |

There is a guy in Christchurch (number plate norota) that has dropped an SR into an FD and lost a couple of hundred kgs in the swap, both motor and trans. He obviously removed other things. Kg to Pounds is roughly 1kg to just over 2 pounds. So if by couple hundred Kg you mean 200kgs lost. Then we are looking at 400lbs less.  A few guys who have done the swap have all made the same comment that the weight is close to a 13b. Which leaves the car close to its original 50/50 ratio. I think the guy who swapped is running around making things sound better than they actually are. -------------------- |
