calling an FD a sleeper is like calling a Viper a sleeper, and is that Nitrous i spy. but all in all it is still a bastardization of a car, the original motor is kick a$$ if you know what you are doing with them.

Try not. Do or Do not.
Tell that to all the guys on v8rx7forum who have converted after doing EVERYTHING (ALL the "maintenance mods") and still having the motor blow 1500 miles later.Originally Posted by eraser4g63
edit: It's a fickle motor that has lasted a while on occasion, but also just as often inexplicably decides to let go whenever it wants.
Also, you can't fit a DOHC V8 in the FD bay. Shock towers are too narrow.

Don't drive like a girl and never rev the piss out of it, then it will last!Originally Posted by NoRotor
I have seen tons of FD's with high miles on origional motor. You have to drive them hard and high rpm's...they aren't babies.

WRONG you need to drive it for what it was designed for, not taking it up in the rpm range is asking to f*ck it up faster. gotta keep that carbon build up out.Originally Posted by simontibbett
That's what I just said...wtf?Originally Posted by redrumracer
EDIT: Due to the *'s it looks like I am saying not to rev it, it says don't drive like a girl and not rev it...meaning beat it to hell!![]()
