I just wondering if the 6 speed manual tranny that will be offered the new regal GS LFN will fit on our cobalt LNF????

 

Don't know yet, but I'm hoping I can put one in my 08.

 

good question, dont see why it woudlnt bolt up to the engine, but we'll have to wait and see how it will bolt the the rest of the ca...wether the front/rear/top mounts are the same

 

the regal does not have an LNF, it will have an LNY

 

Thank you

All that said is the LNF would be a good choice. It never has been stated the LNF will be in the regal. It has been only confirmed a 2.0 turbo lnf or similar will be in it.

wiki even says this
This or a similar engine is used in:
2011 Buick Regal GS Concept

 

The gs is going to be awd.... It will take much more work/cash than it's worth.

 

AND who even knows if the gearing is any good. Just because its a 6speed doesnt mean it is better. For mileage sure, but for going fast..it could be horrible.

 

I think its a bit lame if there going to put a 4cylinder in a buick...what happened to the good days of the grand national power?

 

It's called the EPA.

 

After talking to 2 different GM reps at Chicago autoshow Yes the GS will have an LNF, they had one on display.AWD is not definate yet, and if AWD comes it will be later in the model run.

 

yea no joke...damn shame....

 

Funny you say that because the LNF has more horsepower than the GN.

 

some ppl are just horny over NA v8's. even when they can be bested by a FI I4

 

I understand BUT I would take a grand national over a cobalt/any lnf any day...Grand nationals make serious numbers modded and atleast they have respect on the track and are rwd....(not intended to start a fight)


and the last GN the 1988 was 276hp...I know i had one

 

Afew years ago a friend of mine brought his 8k mile bone stock GN to the dragstrip,and the best we got with it all night was a 14.2,I forgot mph though.

 

wow only 8k, he paid a good dollar for it im sure, nice..

know your facts it was never a V8 it was a turbo V6....

 

He actually bought it new,and sold it for 23k about 4 years ago.

 

yep thats sounds right...Im still waiting to find one in the paper for the right price.

 

Umm...seriously? you need to work on your knowledge of legendary vehicles. The grand national was never touched by a v8 and has far faaarrrr more potential than any lnf powered car.

 

Nor was the car NA

 

like i said

know your facts it was never a V8 it was a turbo V6....

 

my badz, there was a v8 in the regal though

 

Stock for stock it cant.

A stock Grand National went 0-60 in "under 5secs"

A stock Grand National GNX went 0-60 in 4.7secs.

I love my SSTC, but GNs are much more bad ass cars and are VERY underrated by a lot of people. Like cakeatr said, these cars are legendary, and are the definition of late model American muscle....some of the last muscle made by Buick.

And on a side note, they werent even NA V8s....they were turbo'd 6s......


I guess I was a little late, youve already been scolded
