Tesla

Well my buddy has talked me into keeping it, and when it is done, an RX7 will get spanked my my car but yes they are nice, I like the older style.
the plan is to have it on the road by this week as my buddy has the week off, and had to finish it to make room for another project LOL! nice motivation.

So yeah I am keeping it, for now

Don

you mean the old square RX-7s with the triple rotary?

You should check out some vids of round bodies doing 300KM/h in the streets! The Nissan Skyline (R-35) peaked out at 340 in the street. Having that much muscle here is just suiside. Can't even do that on the highway with all the pot holes

I still love the 90's RX7's I think they have aged well and performance is awesome but the running costs are ridiculous, plus the engine rebuilds on the rotary wankel engine scares the crap out of me theres a couple knocking about where I live and they still look awesome, not so may classic American muscle cars as they tend to rot like hell in the UK, last I saw is a 60's Mustang nothing else though. What surprised me about the R35 is how big it looks, pass a white one on a regular basis and I expected it to be smaller. I see more Aston Martins, Ferraris and Audi R8's than Nissan GTR's and I live in a scumhole of a town. Shame these pepole dont get some classic cars becaue they certainly could afford to.

I do like American cars but like the flexibility of Japanese cars. As a kid I always wanted a vett

Hillys R34 is in a different vid but not really suitable for this site.. sorry

I love Mustangs. I've never driven one or anything, I just like the way they look. <3

I'll probably get a Nissan Versa or a little pickup and a bio-diesel kit, though.

Yeah I like all cars, but mustangs are my Fav, My dream car is a 98 Sunfire GT, with a Mustang power train in it I love the look of the Sunfire, dropping
a modifed V8 out of a mustang would make it a 10-11 sec car It would be alot of work, tons of fab work, and tons of money, but it would be one of the most unique rides out there

Don

Maybe an early model GTO?

My father-in-law has a ls1 corvette motor he is saveing for when i get the money. I have been wanting to get it into my civic since i saw my first civette. So i like the idea of swaping power trains on cars but i dont really care for the sunfire just my opinion hope you get to do it one day though.

that was cool! How do you get a V8 in a V4 casing?

The entire underside of the car has to be fabbed. fabbed d/t and everything but soooo worth it so far i dont know of anyone around here that has one and would love to be the first.

very cool!

Yeah,

I have seen all those vids, Thats insane,I wouldnt want something that bad, a monster miata, or a V8 sunfire would be fine LOL!
IDk, I am prob gonna sell my car once its done. I will get more money for it, I want something different, everyone has a mustang LOL!
I want something with mustang guts, but looks like something else

Don

Have you thought about a ranger.... those can be really fast with a mustang D/T.

My GrandAm has >120,000mi on it & still running strong. I love the look of the new 2010 Honda Accords though.
