yeah i think it was an old impalla, they did a duramax with a bigger turbo and some other bolt ons too it....

[70challenger452]

:drool: f-in sweet, I wanna see more of that car

[03CVLX]

Wait, how much rarer is the car if its a GNX over a Grand National.

[Flicktitty]

GNX was a very very limited run.

There were only 547 produced, which makes the GNX very rare and very expensive.

Ok, it is an 80's olds cutlass Diesel with a G/N conversion. I found the build thread and another Video. Is Anyone here a registered member of turbobuick.com that might be able to view the attachment photos in the post?

yea PPE built that one.. 800hp on bio diesel. im pretty sure the injectors couldnt handle that much bio and thats why they detuned it.

[88Nightmare]

they made a 6.0 duramax??? :confused:

[Brandon W.]

thats Badass..think i could fit a 7.3 Powerstroke in the DSM?? bwahaha

[03CVLX]

ahhh, I thought the duramax was a 6.0 liter.. might be wrong though.


Edit.. Crap.. Its a 6.6.. I admit it I screwed up :durr

[SmokinRAM114]

[Nickerz]

I gotta say I like it. Very original.

[USMARINE1108]

I wonder what kind of times it runs? What it weighs? Cool idea, but I don't know if I would have used a GN for the platform.

[jbiscuit]

this is becoming a lot more common sticking turbo diesels in muscle cars etc.

[2SLOW]

thats cool, hell why not?

[Flight_740]

Wow, somebody beat me to it. I always wanteed to see that done. I was always thinking like an old cutlass or somthing like that.

[SmokinRAM114]

so far this is what its done 60': 1.825 1/8: 8.509 MPH: 79.72 for a diesel i figure thats 12s 13s in the quater. 60ft is weak but i forgot its 2wd...

[Flight_740]

The car is sex. Almost looks like a toy.

[pnad]

It can tow it's own trailer to the track!

[BAD LS1]

Im sure its not cranked up yet... My monte went 8.5 @ 81 and that was 13.1

Should be no problem making that thing hook if they really tried and crank the wick up on it... i bet thats like damn near stock, maybe a 75 hp chip setting or something

[Flicktitty]

car looks badass, still not a fan of the swap.

[MARO-MAN]

So, according to the post on turbobuick.com he started with a 81 Cutlass and made it look like a GN. Its a cool car for sure and I am happy to see he didn't destroy a GN. If I stuck a 6.6 diesel in my Iroc it would fold in half. :headbang

[SmokinRAM114]

:punch: lol jk its only a cutlass:shades

Meh, alright now i'm not quiet so pissed about it lol

[84hurst]

yeah, it looks like diesels are becoming more and more popular, and why not? They are easily modified, get good mileage, and they last forever, sounds like a great base to start a project on. And besides, a diesel with a nice loud exhaust sounds AWESOME!

[MARO-MAN]

I hate the sound of a stock diesel, but a loud exhaust really sounds good. :thumbsup

[SmokinRAM114]

^ lol thats all i have... a wana be sounding semi thats really loud and still goes slow....

[70challenger452]

[purpl72olds]

That is sick!

[Nickerz]

holy christ that's hot

[70challenger]
