  Ls1 swap pics


ive been working on this thing for a month and im almost finished up with it. its been a pain in the *** the whole time. i used a Daft innovations kit, with an 02 ls1/t56. rich at daft has been a great help to me the entire time. I could not do this swap without his help. here are some pictures of it so far.

some of the pictures are backwards cause of the ****ty camera phone i was using. and i got some eff'd up 5 lug hubs from ebay so i have to send them back and run 4 lugs for now.... and yes those are mustang wheels on the back


had to beat the piss out of the tranny tunnel/firewall part

thanks for the responses guys. the swap all together was 10,000 because of alot of little problems and small but expensive parts. got the car for 2,000 its a rust free (except for minor spare tire well rust) 92 coupe. $4500 shipped ls1/t56 with warranty. swap kit from daft innovations $1750 the guy rich who runs daft is full of info and really knows his $hit. i had to get new hubs cause one of them seized up, replaced the ps line. power steering return....etc

the color is the original green that got resprayed?? i think but not 100% sure its a really ****ty job with overspray and runs everywhere. the camera phone makes it look good tho lol.

NICE man I like it I don't know if it's just from lack of looking hard or what but I've always thought an S13 with an Ls1 would look pretty sweet so this is the first S13 that I've seen with an Ls1 in it let alone a coupe good job bud can't wait to see/hear this thing in action

lol thats great that they put it in there its a gts-t or base gts skyline. if i were to own a skyline it would be awd with an rb26 i love the ls1 but the skyline is meant to have awd. it would be hard to have that with an ls1 and not to mention the wiring would be nightmare.

i cant wait!! i had a 99 trans am with ls1 and same tranny. it had a k&n filter + exhaust cut out and ran 12.8 at 108 with 3600lbs of weight. This car weighed 2483 stock (removed sound deadening and rear seat) so 370rwhp and 2500+ lbs should be a rocket ship.

still havent started it up or driven it but the sound should raise the dead. if these cars can handle drifting and all the abuse that comes with it, im sure it can handle an ls1. i actually am running the stock suspension and stock open diff for now. I will probably weld the diff or get one already done to use until i can afford a helical diff. i wont have to but will probably stitch weld the car around the struts and around high stress areas.

ps anyone know where i can get a welded diff that will just swap right in? im sick of working on this thing and swapping the guts would be a royal pain in the you know what.

AWESOME!

The best thing to do is a LS1 swap if you're looking at power gains over 400hp. You can do cams and air intake, and see easily 450. Slap on a supercharger bam, 550hp.

You can get all ur parts right here in america. The LS is lighter then a RB, and isn't impossible to fix when it breaks.

I definitly recommend this swap to anyone looking for 400+hp. RB's are hard to maintain considering they aren't from this country. You can get a crate LS1 with tranny for $6000. Slam it in, reflash ECU and good to go. Also, you can get a "Hot Rod" wire harness and plug in 3 things you need to power the LS. Get a converter for the MPH/RPM's and you're golden. I'm definitly going LS in the future. But i want to Turbo the KA before anything. I just can't pass up some good ol' turbo.

For doing it the right way, and actually thinking about what ur doing before you just "RB" another 240!

im a n/a guy so a supercharger or turbo is out of the question for me. but 450rwhp is middle of the road as far as heads and cam cars are concerned, there are quite a few ppl with over 500rwhp and 455rwtq with the stock bottom on 93 octane end its just nasty!! but give me 450rwhp and 2500 lbs any day of the week that should be good for mid tens at 130+mph if it can hook.

Was implying small *** mod's to a LS1 make a HUGE difference, as opposed to a 2.4liter. Heh.

Anyways, 130+ in the 10's huh?

Grab that traction and launch that baby.

it was lowered into the chassis then we played with it for 15 mins and it bolted in. we had to use a floor jack and jack up the tranny as the engine is lowered into the chassis. if your considering the swap have at least $8-9000 to spend on it and allow at least a month to do it.
