First post updated.

The list code is so nightmarish (it literally resets the color tags between edits) that the best I can do for flagging new items is bold. For reference they are:


Dodge - Hellcat-Charger (Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat) - Jeep Willys ‘45 (new swap)
Ferrari - F140B-Enzo (Ferrari Enzo Ferrari ‘02) - Ferrari F40 ‘92 (new engine)
Honda - K20C1-Civic-'20 (Honda Civic Type R '20) - Abarth 595 SS ‘70 (new swap)
Lamborghini - L539-Aventador-SV (Lamborghini Aventador LP750-4 SV 15) - Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary ‘88 (new engine)
Porsche - M97/80-911 (Porsche 911 991 RSR ‘17) - Porsche 911 930 Turbo ‘81 (new engine)
Surely the Willys has to get a (!!!)!

It has a longitudinally mounted straight four. Generally speaking, if a car can accommodate that, a V8 will also fit.

It's also been done - there are Hemi Willys out there... Speaking of which:

Kinda got lucky with my re-rolled tickets, since the four that I had were originally all pre-bonanza engines so useless to me. Now got the Enzo, 911 RSR, Supra (which I only had 4 left, this was by far the least common engine for me at bonanza) and a second S1 Pikes Peak. Enzo F40 and 930 Turbo RSR have potential, but not sure if those will be the top choices for the engines going forward. The real question mark is the S1 engine. I have now two of them, and seems there still isn't anything else to swap it into than Golf GTI mk I (?). This engine has been swappable for months now, it's one of the most legendary racing car engines ever and still we only have one more-lol-than-real swap for it? :banghead:
 
Opened up a total of 4 engine tickets and the only new engine I got is the 991 RSR which is pretty cool since I'm a biased Porsche fan. Also got a Hellcat engine and 2 LS7 Rampage which is neat. The Amuse 380RS fits perfectly with the LS7, somehow still stable enough.

Would've been interesting if I managed to snagged the Lambo and Enzo engine though.

Getting duplicates of post post bonanza engines isn't bad I guess, especially if you had doubt or wanted to save for "future update possibilities".

I had second thoughts about audi quattro, and ford gt/lm, but have a few extra now. Only fresh update I scored after coffee was the enzo. Off to work.. 🫠

I'm new to the topic and trying to figure out the implications...

Are they:

1) put a powerfull engine in a not so powerfull bodywork
2) flex it with friends
3) partetipare in races/events as fas as the bodywork is within the allowed one and the PP are within the limits
4) flex it with friends

?
 
Nice the roulette "trick" worked and my engine tickets changed to new ones. one of them being 787B. the other one is the new lambo engine.

And the new Ticket from one of the extra menu was the new ferrari enzo engine.

what RX is the better choice for the 787B?

Why is your obsession flexing?

It is a fun way to change the dynamics of a car. Some are silly, like the Hellcat in the Jeep - in which case it's more for funsies than for events or races (except with friends).

Others are really helpful - so, for example, the RX8 with 787B engine in it. Can be tuned to 600pp for the Tokyo WTC event and it bosses it based on the fuel consumption. Great for offline racing.

Some cars are crying out for more power than they can get.

The one thing I will say, the people who swap engines and then just try to get the max speed out of them I don't understand, but that's up to them. I enjoy swapping an engine in to a car and then find the right balance of power and drivability. Sure you can make some cars ~900pp, but they drive like ass.

RX8 is the better handling car of the two.
 
As ever I only get boring engines that I've already had - another Camaro engine, oh goody.

(I know I could save the ticket for next time but I just take what I'm given)
 
Won the VK45 race engine for the 370Z earlier, from a daily workout of all things lol. Turned it into an drift car and it's an absolute joy even in the early days of the tune :)

I think that depends on what you get, to be fair.

Another ZL-1 motor, and the fourth Z4 motor from this months haul. The Z4 needs to go into that M3 evo already, it's killing me that car can't be D1-ified.

Agreed- thought m3 evo would get some love. So many 80s 90s classics that are underpowered could definitely benefit. Hope they bring back the 190 E as well!

Definitely depends on what you get, anything post 1.17 is regarded a blessing for the bonanza boys. Im surprised to start getting duplicates of those, but at the same time, more updates=more prizes in the sack!!

Trying to be optimistic, especially for the engines that only have 1 swap capability; and the "common" swap motors like the 2jz, ls/lt, that already have a few chassis options, but like "irl" they stuff them in any chassis that has alot of aftermarket support.

These (!) Factor swaps are always welcome too!!
 
Well, just did the new Nurburgring race and it has a special Alfa Guilia GTAm that definitely has an engine swap in it. Don't know what it is, but, it's definitely not stock.
I believe it has a twin turbo Ferrari V6 in it

Man I kinda regret putting the NSX engine into the Amuse. Sure it handles amazing but I think putting it in the NA2 NSX is more useful for 700pp races.
Thanks for the feedback! Ive been on the fence between the S2000 & NSX since last update. The rarity of these engines has me weary to utilize them, sorry you’re not as thrilled with it. Maybe a new thread titled “engine swaps you may be disappointed with” would be apt at this point.

How we don't have any RB26 swaps for the Silvias, or something ridiculous like a Focus, or Aqua? We'll never know.

I know @hyperspeed980 will be filling any one of those with HKS Superoil. :lol:
