Cheap cheap effective mods for ecotec???

[TAILS83]

rockers are actually $895 heheheh
you should be able to get a redback zorst for $240
extractors for $600
leads for $50
and a lsd diff with new lower ratio will be about $1500, realistically.
thats if your lucky will be good for 150rwkw or 200rwhp.

lying bastards i have street commodores issue 102 infront of me and it says $795
and 150 at the wheels with nothing effecting fuel economy, besides his choice in dif ratio is F**8 ace

[TAILS83]

yeah, it takes a few months to get it through, they only changed the price a few moths ago, check out street commodores.com they have a sponsorship on there. if u wanna know anything about there stuff just ask them

personally i'll be going the yella terra 1.8 roller rockers, i go with what i know thats all, i had a set of RR on my vr and worked well.

what about a crs blower. they are $2000 give about 3psi with the cluch so you can turn it on or off and 6psi with out it. and can be put on the car by your self in about 8hrs or something like that

well personally i think the crs blower is great for what it is and what ppl are doin with them, i just wouldn't put one on my VT, this is my good car. everything is gonna be done properly, i've spent so much on previous cars and dodged them up by doing stuff myself or dodgy components. so if i were to go a blower it would be from capa. higher quality stuff, the 1GGZE sc14 blower is a second hand unit. good for playin with, not if you want a decent car, just my opinion. (not to be confused with the start of an arguement of, the crs is the best blower).

[L8N]

fair call, i was just sujesting a mod that fell with in the price range of the budget, that gives noticable power. i never said it was the best blower in the world, just that it is cheapish and that it runs at low boost so should be alright on a stock engine. there is a limit of hp avalible on every part of the engine and thats the same with the crs it can only push out so much before it shits it self so if you just want a bit of fun then the crs my be a goer but if you are after serious power then you wouldnt look twice at a crs kit.

Hey did any of you know that the VX N/A ECOTEC is rated at 152kw???

[EXCESSV]

yep.
VT was 147kw and VX 152kw

[naf naf]

VLT6 are a wannabe rice boys dream car.. they dont match up to a nice ecotec... and the only thing a VL driver floggs is his long tom..

that is true and if u put a supercharger on an ecotec it would flog a VL.
if u if u want a car with a nissan engine in it buy a skyline
