If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
If my dsm project ever gets done, my next project car that I would like is a FD Rx7. Ive always wanted one because they look sexy. I'd like to learn about rotary engines since I know nothing of it. What would yours be?

Either and an RB swapped S13 coupe, or if I hit the powerball a TT E46 M3

Project, done, what? Nevar!

I can't think about it too much, or it might happen.

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
There is a FD that needs a motor rebuild or donor and new 5th gear for $4500/obo its a 95, which means 1 of 23.

Retarded good deal for the money

I think the project starts this spring, my dad and I are finally going to get rolling on his 1970 Benz 300SEL 6.3L.

Otherwise Ive really wanted to pick up an older 70s project car and throw something newer under the hood.

89 Colt/Mirage Sedan with 1g dsm drivetrain. 50 trim, link, e85.

Changed my mind, I know what I want:

But with billet turbos and no stickers :)

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
1995 Nissan 240sx + rb26dett w/rb25 trans + 350Z rear + Tein Suspension + 285/30/18 fronts and 345/30/18 rears, staggered fitment + Roll cage.....

someday........someday.......The 240 has been sitting near my gramps garage for 5 years :(

goodhart 02-23-2010 05:05 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
I suppose I could finish my 1961 Mercury Comet one of these days....I'd love to toss a FI 302 into it along with some sort of Auto trans and a 9" rear.

asshanson 02-23-2010 05:11 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
I'd love to sell the Talon and make the Caddy my official new project. I have a good list of a few thousand in parts I want to buy for it. Mostly suspension stuff, but a few small power mods to get me to the 500whp mark with a tune from Shane.

Either that or a mint z32.

Alpha D 02-23-2010 05:34 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
I would like to convert those Regular Lancer Mitsu Into a Mini Evo. Put the AWD Drive train in the rally and swap a 4G63T In it Put the Mini Evo Body Kit and Wing on. Someone probably has dont it before. Its a nice swap i would like to do though. In the future perhaps.

Kinda like this:

Same, love the way fd's looks, maybe a turbo or a procharger just so I never have traction :leghump:

I always dream up crazy swaps, one I thought would be cool, would be to do an RB in like a 1995 cobra. Do a bunch of weight reduction and do a rb30de bottom end with built internals and a rb25/6 head. Toss a huge turbo on it, and stick it to the mustang guys lol. What they think is a v8 poopstang, is actually a Inline 6 single turbo monster :Banane56:

Well yikes true it might be a retarded thing but idk i use to want a lancer really bad, until i figured out what a lemon they were. Then i discovered the 4G63 Engines and went to town. So I was just putting it out there. No need to be so forceful in telling me how much it sucks. I guess getting my 1G to run 10nz would be a nice project.

I would love to see your face if your v8 swap gets beat by a stock looking rally hehe

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
If I ever finnish the 4 I have
I just need to stop finding things to do to the evo and paint it then it will be done
The hatch is going awd this summer and getting painted
Put a ton of money in to the 51 and get it finnished
Start working on the spyder some day.

If I get them all done. I was told I have to sell a car to get a new project car so the talon will just have to go then :)

I will be building next will be a lhd edm spec tommi mac ed evo 6.5

The one project I can get away with doing right now is to build a bobber. Just have to fine the right bike to do it to and it will not be a jap bike

Wow, I'm suprise no one has love for the MKIV Supra's. That's definitely my dream car that is achievable.

Kevin 1G Drummer 02-23-2010 06:13 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
I just started my new project. '95 240sx KA-T. For now... Eventually it'll get an RB25 with a ginormous snail hanging off the side after the KA blows, S15 helical LSD, R33 or Z32tt brakes, 245's in the front, ~275's in the back. It already has Stance coilovers so that part is already taken care of. After that, I'm not sure what I'd do with it.

Shane@DBPerformance 02-23-2010 06:18 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
Why do you guys love RB motors so much? Just because we don't normally get them here? Especially in a Mustang, why downgrade to a puny 2.6l. Ford even makes an inline 6 turbo motor that they put in cars in Austrailia, if you really want in inline 6. Nissan motors aren't the greatest things ever and it can be a bitch to get gaskets and basic stuff for a motor that isn't sold here.

C3L1CA 02-23-2010 06:24 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
^Its mad tight jdm y0!

I'd like to take my setup, plus a built motor and throw it into a full weight auto 1g. Or cheat and throw in a v8 in an older rx7 and throw some boost at it.

The mustang swap wouldn't be first on the list, lol. Rb's just have an appeal to most, including me. Missed the part about it being a 3.0l too. If money wasn't a problem, I'd fart around with some rb's.

What's this i6 turbo that ford makes that you were talking about...?

Turbo+ busa motor+ smart car+ bomb rollcage= sounds fun. Also sounds like I'd flip it over 10 times lol.

I would like to take my 300 put the 440 stroker kit in it and put a pair of turbo's on it to make 7-800 hp but that's a dream. I would really like to rebuild an old challenger or cuda either 70 or 71 and put a new tt hemi in it.

^^ Hahaha. Another idea I've been kicking around is a wideblock 4g64 in the 240 with an FC turbo II trans.

Pushit2.0 02-23-2010 07:10 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
I would build a dragster. Sunny mountain motor with 932 cubic inchs and then turbo it.

It's in the Ford Falcon, not sure what else. I think the current models have a 4.0l inline 6 with a Garrett 35/40R turbo on them.

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
Rachaels dad has a mint '37 Chevy Truck in his barn that i drool over every time I see it. Though of all kinds of different swaps for that car... anything from a 4g63 Evo IX crate motor.... to a built V8 with a turbo.... We'll see ... someday.. .would like to get it running and out of the barn on its current I6 first!

I also would really like a GT-R... but ... gonna need a significant raise before that happens lol!

Or how about an easier to find normal 4G63/4 narrow block, and a t56? Bill Hincker makes the bellhousing adapter and accessories. My friend has one in his possession that is going into a really, really cool car.

I even contemplated that for my 240sx!

Goat Blower 02-23-2010 07:41 PM

Re: If you can start a new project car, what would it be?
 
1) Cobra kit car, 5.4 Aluminator, pair of turbos.
2) 1980 Chevy Monza Spyder, LS2, Corvette suspension & IRS
3) 1995 NSX, wheels and tires, modernize a few things
4) Ariel Atom, 4B11 EVO X motor
5) 1973 Corvette big block, stock looking but with suspension upgrades, wider Rally wheels, cam, heads, exhaust
