heh yeah don't the FWD drag guys need to chock up their rear suspension or something so it's rock hard just to keep the fronts on the deck?

i was talking about the probably-terrifying levels of torque steer you'd get if you stuffed lots of evo power into a floppy FWD lancer chassis too... ;)

i'll stick to RWD or AWD thanks....

Like shyster suggested... 1990 - 1992 Toyota Cressida (MX83) with 1JZ conversion... its been done oh so many times in australia/nz, but you would so fly under the radar.

you can then take it a step further and fit a JZX81 Chaser (or even Mark II) bodykit to it (which should fit with minimal changes)...

I'm definitely on the Cressida bandwagon. One of the guys at work has one(stocker), and I always look at it and think hmmm....

But then I've always wanted a Honda City Turbo, after I got annihilated at the lights by one in my Liberty. Also of course the Nissan March Super-Turbo, Mira Turbo etc.

Grab a cheap used intercooler or one of the cheap Chinese ones, front mout it, and then swap your scooped bonnet with someone else who wants it for one that is normal, for the stealth look. An decent exhaust should cost f-all, same with a bleed valve. They are so light, you'd chop so many cars that didn't ecpect it.

Speaking of front wheel drives

Maybe a Suzuki GTI with an avo turbo kit on it

Avo has kits for same thing for Honda civics’, Rav 4's and mx-5's I think

“80%” power boost “with appropriate exhaust modifications”- or something like that!

Kit only about $5k or less and car should be about $5k as well.

10k sleeper

went like a cat with deep heat on its balls.

Rofl :lol:

I got a mate who pulled that trick on a few people.

Then he got curious.

idiot.

and he drives a skyline. I guess they are all crazy.

and on the FWD topic, what about a 70s model civic (they still exist)? put the blower off a 1JZ (?) on it (~$250 + fittings). Fit some proper rubber and some tie down bars. And hang on

the best ive seen is my mates brothers vw combi lowered, tinted windows, black paintwork, with a leyland p76 engine. it stood the van up at the line and ran faster than most if not all v8 fords and holdens

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
