Sagaris LS7 beast

[GTRene]

just looking into the classifieds, this time also the Sagaris section to see how they do price wise against the T350...

I saw that lovely monster V8 LS7 Sagaris for sale....its a bit pricey though, but wow...must be big fun to drive/own.

a 2009? its the latest model seeing the wheels and exhaust I guess.

nice ride.

how many are there? is this the first?

also is there already a LS7 or LS3 T350? I know they were working on one


one day I would love to try such car, but it has to be LHD is there already a kit for the T350 for a LHD conversion? for not that much and good work ofcorse
just to keep those things in mind for you never know when to buy such sort car.

Hi Derrick,

No chance! LOL. Because of the ad put onto PH for the other LS Sag I was offered 70K cash for mine the other day which I tunred down. My Sag being a 2008 car + the conversion has cost me a lot of dough though worth every penney, mine will be staying with me for a long time.

Hope you are well.

Good answer no point in paying all the money to do it up and then sell it on, enjoy it. I may go the LS way someday, but as I dont have time to do track days not sure if its worth it, be nice to ctach up with you again and see this beast of yours and compare to mine

Im looking to the 4.5 conversion, but may get with str8six, or tvr power and go through options

I am working in the philippines at the mo so not sure when next in the Uk or home to france either

This may appear to be a p/ss take but is meant as a serious Question

What are the differences ??

Is the motor in the same position ?
Are the exhausts routed the same ?, or primaries the same size ?
are they running sports car oil pan / lube systems ?
some things are just personal taste, others are simply bad automotive engineering practise

Walford as you say it may just be bad engerneering practice but from just a quick look at the pic

1 Exhaust manifold sticking out
Alternator in the air
Air filter next to rad
Power steering not standard
Loads of extra pulleys
Pipes everywhere

The exhaust is really difficult to make it sound good and within the limits required for the track. I hated the exhaust that Topcats created for me initially but I now like it. I have sent the ends off to be remade by a specialist exhaust company to make them look great with removable sleeves
