sick620 Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Has anyone ever had the urge to build a punisher or death race style car? am i crazy? See my idea would be to take a car(more than likely my z thats sitting in my back yard...... ........ and make it bullet proof, tune it up, and give it a rally suspension. Then in 2012 when the world is coming to an end i can safely escape to canada. :lol: seriously though i really want to do this. Quote Link to comment
I'm BLUE Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Don't Forget Me (I'll Bring Ammo/Beer/Snacks for the trip up to Canada to stay at datzenmike's :lol: ) Well it looks like you'll need either a converted or built motor ? :cool: ( a good excuse to the wife :fu: ) Likely American powered smallblock for cheap torque , cheap power , and being stout :cool: "We Will Rape the Horses and Ride off on the Women" ( :lol: What movie is this from ? ) Quote Link to comment
sick620 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 hell ya mike's house it is. I am going to do this for sure but i just dont know what vehicle i want to do it to yet. I kinda like my 280 too much to cut it up..... but you only live once. Quote Link to comment
sick620 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Well it looks like you'll need either a converted or built motor ?Likely American powered smallblock for cheap torque , cheap power , and being stout :cool: any other ideas for modifications i need to do? i was thinking a v8 but gas mileage needs to be taken to consideration. maybe the stock Lseries with a huge fuel cell in the hatch ;) Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Yeah, that would be fun, except then I'd actually want to use it. Plus it looks like the 280 has some rust issues. Quote Link to comment
sick620 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 Plus it looks like the 280 has some rust issues. all the better reason to use it. ;) Quote Link to comment

MicroMachinery Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 any other ideas for modifications i need to do? i was thinking a v8 but gas mileage needs to be taken to consideration. maybe the stock Lseries with a huge fuel cell in the hatch ;) If you want power out of the L-series, I suggest going w/ the 2.8 Turbo... ..then again, EMP shockwaves from all the nuclear blasts will likely fry the ECU.. :rollseyes: Quote Link to comment
sick620 Posted December 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 so any ideas of what i should do to my z to make it bad ass? Quote Link to comment

turbojunker Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 this is a good idea because a turbo will give me slightly better gas mileage I'd use a diesel with a WVO conversion. Then while everyone is busy killing each other and looting, you can raid restaurants for all the veggie oil you'd ever need for fuel. Quote Link to comment

Use 2" round tubing or whatever to Build Internal Roll Cage that attaches to new frame rails at 6-8 points ( then reinforce ). Then use 2" round tubing inside engine compartment from new frame rails to firewall , strut towers , front bumpers , and along under the hood all the way around :cool:. ( of course , added weight , and with a huge fuel tank/cell you will need to build that motor ! ) Lower Gearing like something above 4.11 Final Drive ?

WagDatto Posted December 29, 2009 Report Share Posted December 29, 2009 More likely than not, we'll have "Z Day" on our hands before some sort of apocolypse. Zombies will getcha if you're not careful. Having a proper car to escape them is key. Don't weigh it down with things that are easy to hold on to. They'll do it. Quote Link to comment
