**Pineapple** · 09-06-2006, 05:08 PM

6th gen GT4 and swap out the 3S

**MartinGouda** · 09-06-2006, 05:26 PM

don't toy with my emotions like that piney... really what's the plan?

**Pineapple** · 09-06-2006, 05:30 PM

I'll pick up what Ratko left out. Trying to anyway.
If the $3k AllTrac stay in AutoTrader longer, I might really take it and swap out the 3S.

lisa should have some info on that for you as she bought her bike in the states and brought it over.. as for the swap i say go for it but your gonna run into a couple problems along the way. i only know one guy that has done this swap but then he had gotten a bad motor and blew a cylinder and decided to sell it. But the car was seriously fast and can easily do a stnadstill burn out on all four wheels..

I say do it

Explain to me how it is possible to do a 'standstill burn out on all four wheels'? Because their would be nothing holding the car in a stationary position (front and rear wheel drive have brakes which hold it in a position). The gyro force created by all four wheels and the linear pull created by front wheels pulling and the rear pushing wouldn't allow this to happen.

with a good driver and a nice set of diff's the car can be made to do anything a fwd or rwd can do.

That was a guy doing donuts, that wasn't a guy doing 'stand still burn out on all four wheels'. You wont find anything on the net showing someone doing one because it is not physically possible.

**1990celicagts** · 09-09-2006, 06:35 PM

maybe with bald tires and on an incline it is possible!

**hl2k3** · 09-10-2006, 12:40 AM

thats still moving against an incline, and it'd have to be a mad incline

I'm more liabile to think on gravel or on water
