My 4G63 SL-R

[Colt4G63 also]

Damn!

That thing needs a GT35R on E85 and meth. You would have to mount around five of those big aluminum wings all over it to hold it down.

Run 100psi! ha ha

Damn sweet. I've wanted to do something like this forever. Damn money!

Awesome project OP, I would love to be building one of those right now.

Is it going to be a mid engine mount or rear engine mount?

Looks like rear;

Haha! I have that in my 2g but WAY too much for the SL-R! ...unless...

 

[Tanro]

Looks like a huge technical challenge to me. I like the fact you are going there and doing it. But its just my style.

Good luck with it. Can't to see what kind of track times you put down.

 

[DSMunknown]

Awesome project. Keep us informed, please.

Definitely will need a windshield of some sort to make it "street" legal.

 

[AK Maniak]

thats gonna be so bad ass when its done. Very jealous

 

[ineedagsx]

i really need to move somewhere that has tracks i could use something like that on, long island sucks

Not too sure about that one. Wisconsin kicks ass sometimes.

Subscribed.. this is gonna be nuts!!

 

[RipperXX]

VERY interested. I was thinking about the new 5.0 GT stang when I get back from afgan land cause I wanted something new, decent (which it actually is for once) and something thats more reliable (tired of working on shit all the time damn it!)

But now, THAT peaks my interest. Please document the build very well, to include the registration process. I know it will be different for each state but the more info the better! Oh yea, and GOOD LUCK! Looks like a boat load of fun to be had.

 

[noV8undrDIShood]

that thing is amazing man.. cant wait to see some times

 

[MidShipCivic]

That thing is sweet. Hope the 4G63 is not to heavy to effect handling. Keep us updated

Where did you get this thought from?

Nah, in this case rwd>awd.

AWD isn't pointless is such a car no living on bottomless statements. Engine maybe on top of its drive wheels and weight transfer may work to its favor sometimes, it's light and will have a good acceleration but traction issues will always rear it's ugly head.


This chassis was designed for a mid rear transaxle it's very obvious a ''cool thought'' of it being awd is a nice fantasy though with that having its benefits and downsides.

Awesome build!

I don't know if it would help for your style of racing, but have you considered using the ALS/SAS system off a non-US Evo? It helps rally guys out a lot.

(You hear it when rally cars drift around corners, keeps you in boost and turbo spooled.)

You could pick up a Evo TwinScroll Mainfold, Turbo, and SAS system for pretty cheap.

Saw the thread title and thought someone was droping a 4G63 in a Mercedes Benz, but this is AWESOME. Just the other day i was thinking the 'ol power to weight ratio thing and thought how cool it would be to have an old '32 roadster, but with a 4G in it. This tops that. Sweet project, good luck and keep it coming!

i saw this car in the end of a video on here, I thought "That was cool!" ...and that was before i found out the power train going in it!

 

[1990AWD]

looks really awesome. I bet it's gonna give a real thrill. .

btw, every time I see this thread (4G63 SL-R) I think someone is trying to put a 4g into a new SL-R Mercedes haha.

When you get her done i mite have to drive down there and see it in action

I'm not sure what kind of racing I'm going to be doing either. I will probably use either Jackal or DSMLink for tuning, NLS and 2stage.

Haha, that was Mr. Peepers home made twinscroll hx35 setup video. The power to weight ration should be pretty healthy at 300hp/1600lb.

Yeah, most people either think Mercedes or a Camera.

Hopefully it won't take to long to get her running. Street legal is a whole different can of worms. I'll start a build journal on here once I get a few more parts drop-shipped.

 

[90tsiawdturbo]

Shit That would be worth the drive anyday for me!!! one thing I think I like more then a dsm is when someone takes the 4g63 and puts it in another vehicle like top fuel dragsters.... I think thats pretty sweet. I want to try and put a 4g63 in an old Subaru Justy . I'll have the only Justy TSi awd turbo

 

[Thomas91169]

thing would haul ass with just a stock 2g (7bolt, t25) combo. E16g should make it absolutely breathtaking, though traction with a light frame like that will be an issue.

 

[jrohner]

With an LSD and really good tires, traction should be fine since the engine will be right in front of the rear tires. If not, just use ECU controlled boost to soften the torque hit and you'll definitely be fine.

Also, WIDSM represent.

 

[Zdrummer15]

I know it's been said by others already, but I also can't wait to see this when it's finished. I only wish there was a way I could ride in it.

 

[Lofty]

If I pay you can I see said car?

 

[turbotalon1g]

That is sick, I was wondering what that was in peepers vid.

E316G all the way. I would make the drive to see this thing in action.
