Guest DatsuNoob Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Hey Kevin!! Remember when I was talking about this when you sold me the doors? Didn't want you to think I was just b.s.'in cause I had a few beers. Check it out! I think someone should do this. Maybe a s13/hardbody hybrid? Would be neat to see driving down the road. I think it would be do-able, just get a half-cut 240/180sx from Japan with the engine (right in the neighborhood of $2500 I think), and attach it to the ass end of a hardbody. Sorry for the weak techno music too BTW, just turn the volume down. Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Kind of cool, in an El Camino sort of way. Quote Link to comment
shane_lxi Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 You dont even need to do that. There's a couple guys I know that have done it to s13's, and one guy did it with an fc rx7. Just a chopped up car chassis. Seems like it would result in alot of body flex though, even with a full cage and whatnot. Just doesnt seem like the best option for a track car imo. Especially a drift car, with all the pressure and force that constantly gets applied to the back axle and whatnot, where all the support and structure has been removed. Looks cool though!! This one is absolutely hideous, but you get the idea. It's just an s13 chassis all chopped to shit. Quote Link to comment

shane_lxi Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 Yup, that's Earl. That thing actually looks pretty good in person too. Last time I saw it, though, it was wrapped in shiny maroon vinyl, lol. Quote Link to comment

BACARDI_DWB Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 those cars are also in austrailia. they sound wicked!! they have the aussie v8 in them and go like stink. I got a ride in one and its really nice. reminds me of the new pontiac GTO with a bed. i believe they are based off the holden series cars i saw them and loved them. too bad they don't have em in the US Quote Link to comment
LAYEDOUTB2K Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 my brother did that to a 240sx a few years ago too. shane- did earl ever cover up the downpipe that goes through the firewall? talk about a bad case of hotfeet. Quote Link to comment
