2011 - psphinx81's quest for 9's!

What are the Turbo Taxi’s fares going to be in 2011?? I want a ride!

lol, youre like the tenth person to ask already!

Haha! Maybe take me to Aldi’s or Walmart?!?! Bahaha!

Lol. You gonna accept medicaid? Most cabs I see now have a decal on the hatch saying they accept it lol.

I want that motor in my car :tup:

Your car for sale on evom? :frowning:

You gotta read the first sentence of my post! It’s a price I’d let it go for, I am in no way at all actively trying to sell my car!

Everything has a price, always!

Oh yeah everything is for sale for the right price!

hahaha, enter at your own risk!

just a small update, motor is going down on december 3rd.

i wanted to “clean up” my interior a little with the gauge placement because it royally sucked going down the track as i was trying to keep an eye on things, proved to be more of a pain than anything. so i picked up a few things:

gruppe-s gauge pod:

then with that ill have to relocate my radio down below:

hopefully i can get around to working on the car soon, ive been so damn busy at work the past two weeks.

Radio only adds weight! :slight_smile:

lol, ill be saving weight on the new motor! a lot of stuff isnt going back on woot

very nice build, what have you done with the drivetrain? i have been researching trying to figure out the weak links in these cars and it seems drivetrain is on the list

buschur built tranny
buschur built t-case
stock rear diff
quartermaster twin disk

the drivetrain isnt all that bad, its all about the parts you use. my stock tranny went im 95% sure was because of the POS ACT clutch i had in the car, they are absolute GARBAGE for these cars, i would never use one again. the transfercase took a shit ton of abuse too, it just broke this summer at the track. hoosiers + 1.5X 60’s on the stock 03 t-case killed it my second pass, i exploded the diff into shambles :lol:.

i will only tell everyone that there are 3 clutches for these cars that work and will keep your drivetrain in great shape. exedy twin/triple (depending on your power goals), quartermaster twin, or a tilton. however, tiltons are expensive as shit, if you have REALLY deep pockets then go for it lol.

the rear diff, there are options out there to be upgraded and what not. but after a lot of track abuse they do break. most people just toss another stock rear in and call it a day, if mine breaks this year thats what ill probably do.

just remember getting stuff rebuilt when its broke is more expensive than when its good :slight_smile:

great job so far

this is looking awsome!.A friend recently nicknamed my evo the “turbo taxi”. Unfortunatly i see yours is already nick named this and i wont be able to match those numbers haha so someone will have to come up with soemthing else. But super sick build. Im looking for a few parts such as Dli and i am in need of a tial bov cuz the forge i have is a pos.Lmk

Best bet is to go on evom. Those parts are on sale there all the time, dunno if you’re on there or not
