If you had extra time / money build thread

If you had more resources in the areas of time and money, what vehicle creations would you build that you have floating around in your head.

Give the pros or reasons for why you would like to build it.

Examples:

I would really like to build an S13 240SX or an AE86 Corolla GT-S with an LS1 swap/ six speed, putting down 350-400whp for the road courses
pros: about 2000lbs (AE86 vers.), nimble, rwd flickability/handling

Second, I have always wanted to build a car with a bike motor for the high rpm motor, and for the sequential dogbox
Something like a Ford Festiva with a Hayabusa motor in the front and back, together they would put down as much as 350whp
pros: about 1500 lbs (stripped), awd (sortof), high rpm to gear really low for multiplication
cons: looking/being a fggt

2

LX Fox with a Th400 + H/C/Spray LS1 setup…

3

For my own personal burnout pleasure…a smart car with a hayabusa swap.

4

e36 m3. Completely stripped, caged, track ready, with built 9k rpm s54 motor.

and street legal

5

I have what I want, I just need to put time into it to get it all together.

That and a driveshaft, but that’s trivial really.

6

72 datsun Z

7

s30 z with an l28, bored and stroked to 3.2 liters, mikuni triples, and turblowed of course.

8

notch foxbody mustang w/ an 03/04 cobra drivetrain… would make for a very fun street car

ooooor either a late 80’s escort GT, 80’s Taurus SHO or Dodge Omni GLH with a mild build… sleepers.

9

Time and money are hard enough to come by but you forgot to mention skill.

10

Finish the '68 with a Terminator drivetrain and suspension swap, drown it in Highland Green paint. Then STI swap on the Legacy and turbo the Special.

Off the wall would be something like a Frogeye Sprite with 6-sp / VQ35 :smiley:

11

House with no mortgage :tup:

12

Syclone

low 13’s out of the box,

end up with 4l80e
Bigger turbo
Stainless manifolds
Brodix Aluminum heads
Bowtie Aluminum racing block
Billet crank
Miscellaneous shit

Run low 10’s high 9’s all fucking day long

13

Nice build, I’m jealous.

14

Not much of a project, but Oh if I had the money…UGH

This is my automotive dream project…to build the car I designed a few years back in college. Here’s the clay model, never mind the Buick branding, that was part of the assignment:

Here’s a rendering of how the body could be mated to a Factory Five chassis with an LSX drivetrain:) It’s been stretched a bit to fit…but I didn’t base the original design over this chassis. I’ve looked into this quite heavily and figure for about $30K it could be done.
