These things weigh like 19 pounds each (according to bathroom scale)… I doubt I’ll end up using them, but I had them laying around and wanted to see what 16"s would look like on a car that came with 12"s.
(By the way, if anyone wants that Mustang, let me know ASAP. I need that thing gone. It’s not mine, so I don’t know dick about it. I can give the owner your number if you’re interested.)
I hope you are but I don’t see it. that last metro I saw run did a 21 at the track. brokeasskorean and I were cracking up as the dude passed us at about the 1/8 at 30mph…the car trapped under 60mph I believe
Swapping from my Suzuki Swift GT
G13B motor + 5 speed tranny
Front + rear disc brakes + suspension
I’m conservatively estimating that the motor swap will net me low 16 second 1/4 mile times.
i’m going to run it like that for about half of the summer, make sure I really like the car and want to keep sinking money into it. If I do, I’m going to put together a turbo setup similar to the www.ssgti.net Stage I kit. It uses a GT25, but I want to use something with a bit more output, like a GT28RS.
200hp is very acheivable with the motor, in a car that came with 49hp from the factory. I think it’ll be a little quick.
just use the compariable t series to the 28rs… you can get it for 400 no problem whereas the 28rs .64 is like 1100… kilmer420 is selling one in the auto classifieds… make the project a little cheaper.
