Yeah those raptor heaters! Whoahh they heat good! :lol:

But either H6 will be an easy upgrade. I just suggested the gen3 one cause loom would be easy if he got a halfcut. Both good options though

Guys stop tempting me lol and the gen 4 option does sound good and I can get my hands on an engine but the engine mounting and also what to do about an ecu or do I have to get an aftermarket one?

Lastly do any of you guys know if anyone has done this before! :p

it should all bolt up fairly easy. not sure about clearance on the firewall but i doubt there would be an issue. ecu should come with the motor if you got a half cut.

A Gen3 with an EZ30R with full headers back exhaust system and a tune should haul ass!

Lets talk some sense......

If you want/need/have to change engines, get yours rebuilt or replaced with the same.

Going anything other than standard will be $$$$ to make it work and the money would be better spent on a car that already has said engine.

After seeing the photo of the front lip, I might buy one as well...

I know what you mean Mark but to sell my car and get something else would be useless cause I wouldn't get anything for my car so that's why I am going down the engine transplant route

And my overall cost limit is 5k so I have a budget :lol:

Mitch get the lip for sure, it will set off the front of your red beauty nicely

I have done some research and I am not going down the 3.0L way due to custom parts having to be created aka it will drive costs up to much and time to make it al work

But I might get this

What do you guys thinks and what else would I need to do the conversion?

Hi Mitch, the cornering speed is alot better with coilovers and so is the ride height and body roll but in turn I drive like a mad man avoiding pot holes because the ride is quite hard! In short I would get them but you have to get use to the ride
