We’ll see what sort of spare cash I have. A similar project was already somewhat in the works, but better shit has taken precedence…
I may be interested in a $1000 build. I could probably see a mid-low 13 or maybe a 12 with that dough. If you can’t match that, it’s not worth wasting my money.
like the one guy said, it doesnt matter on the HP(for the most part), it matters on how you drive. You could have a 800HP S15 or something but you could drive like shit and get smoked by a turbo( hell even N/A but modded) saturn.
Ive raced many people that dont know how to drive, they dont know shit about their cars and dont know how to shift or drive for shit. I know how to drive my car and i know exactly where and when to shift, therefor when i roll up to a light and some punkass kid wants to go that doesnt know anything about his car, i’ll gladly clean his ass out.
Btw, that qksltwo.com site, the guy that ows the tan sl2 topped out his stock speedo in 4th gear, at about 5000 RPM, the stock speedo on a saturn goes up to 135, for a saturn, thats pretty damn fast.
Im gonna build my turbo saturn and prove everyone wrong that thinks a saturn cant be fast.
Hey asshole, did you read what we said? You can make a 10 sec drag saturn if you want. I could do it. Anyone could, but you are going to pay more, wait more and only wind up with less when you’re done with it.
If you want to go real fast on a budget and still be obscure, go with a turbo dodge.
LOL, i don’t even know why i am posting. your car will never have all those things in your list. know why? because you are going to get sick of it and buy something else… end-o story-o
Yes. I know how to mod it, and almost every part you need starts with the word “custom”. Custom turbo kit. Custom Pistons. That C word starts getting real expensive after a while…
ok. that website has a s series section called HARCORE POWER.
in it?
heads, CUSTOM pistons, and a lightweight flywheel. wow, that’s all you need to make your POS saturn into a racecar. Good thing you have access to that extensive resource…
I think I’m going to make my Geo Metro run 9’s. Yeah, that’s a good idea.
Hell, while I’m at it, I’m heading over to HondaTech to call out all those guys in a budget build. Let’s see who can hit 11’s for cheaper! Shit, I’m on a roll today.
94satsc2 swing by mikes shop sometime… he either has what u need or can get it and plus he’s a really cool guy. me and eric go up there a lot. u might be familiar with his site www.streetdesignauto.com just bought pistons from him for my build, gunna be getting forged rods, and pretty much everything else i need. and dont know how familiar u are with the saturn forums but if u want good info on ur car and what u can do with it, dont go here (obviously no one cares about ur saturn) turbosaturns.net is pretty much dead and gone unfortunately, but there’s www.plastikracing.net and www.saturnspeed.com those are the two good ones that i go to… dont waste ur time in saturnfans.com
hope some of that was help to u
Dont make me stand up for the saturns with my sunfire that will tear your 2 cars a new asshole :lol:
But im gonna make a point in general to a few people in this thread. If you want to be different and make a car fast like i did with the sunfire. It is DEFFINETLY not a good thing if your on a budget - youd be better off buying a better car with a loan then buying small mods here and there.
