Cavalier on Steroids

holy crap!

OMG

Just needs a TRD sticker.

Lol. Yea, when you bring it to Japan.

There is some serious over there.

That humongus engine and it has stock brakes???

that thing is awesome, haha

they missed a LOT of details on that car, unfortunately.


i'm still surprised someone actually grew a pair and stopped saying they were going to do it...they've been discussing that for years. someone shoved a V8 in a second gen, which was able to house it with little body modifications, but no one truly attempted to shoehorn one into a third gen...till this guy did.

stupid, i can't agree with per se...waste of time and money, however, i can. i just wish they'd have FINISHED the job.

Holy shit. Why the hell would you want to do that.

why the hell do people do motor swaps into Corollas? because they can. i'm sure the same reasoning went behind this car as well.

heh...i'm not applauding the UNFINISHED product...just that they're the first to do it.

that car should have Corvette brakes(which i know fit...a friend of mine did a full conversion to Vette disks on his cav), a tach, and a stronger tranny...yes, a transmission, not transaxle. i don't think they did that swap. if they did, please correct me...i didn't read through the full auction.

hrm.


reading through...i see nothing about a RWD conversion(which would be best for the car in its current state), but they strengthened the tranny and added a tach...so they've at least got that to their benefit. a stock tach would be useless anyway...cavalier tachs are pretty crappy. i didn't use the one in the cav because it didn't work...i just learned how to shift by sound.

they still need to strengthen the unibody...first time down the track, that poor thing is going to undergo so much stress it'll never handle like that again.

They're going to hit some kid in the street because the entire vision is blocked.

like they'd get away with driving that on the street? that's a track-only vehicle at this point...i don't care if the seller drove it, that's NOT streetable.

that i can agree with...it won't sell. at least not for what he thinks he'll get.

Sounds like it's RWD to me...

I bet I could beat it in autox..

uh, of course you could...RWD or FWD, that's a straight-line car.


thanks for correcting me, BTW...i was looking at it while at work, and i tend to miss stuff while skimming and dealing with customers.

regardless...they still didn't finish the freaking car.

<<< soupy brains.

...hence my comment..lol

YEAH, but it's kindof redundant...i'd said earlier that it's a straight-line only car. of course you'd beat it in autox...hell, i'd beat that in autox in my mom's CAMRY.

course not. he's trying to sell the car, and is lying about some of it i'm sure.

It can't be street legal..technically, you *could* get pulled over for fuzzy dice on your rearview mirror (in FL..not sure about other states), and that engine is a bit more of a vision obstruction...

falnfenix: lol..the '' was supposed to mean a lighthearted/sarcastic comment..but apparently I failed. =)

nah...i'm just soupybrained

seems like that to me too
