My goal is to get a manual transmission in my Civic DX and find some working V-Tec parts. Then I will be happy for the time being.

ambitiousCK · 12-05-2010, 11:04 PM

Id just like to say good luck to everyone in this thread....we ALL need it lol

ghostRS · 12-09-2010, 01:42 PM

my winter beater - 87 Subaru GL turbo wagon. I want a 2-3" lift with Peugeot 505 wheels and around 27" tires stuffed in there. I also want some nice tubed bumpers and a roof rack. Thats pretty much perfect.

my fun car - i would like the sell all my random cars i have other than the GL and buy a first gen Miata. The goal for that would be a supercharger, new suspension and wheels/tires. Just a basic boosted Miata.

For my truck which is going to be a never ending project I would like -

Built motor - Mahle Pistons, .040 over, Shot peened 12v rods, 14mm main studs with girdle, ARP rods bolts, 14mm head studs, Fire ring block, balanced and blue printed
Built Head - 60lb valve springs, HD push rods, titanium retainers, port and polished, fire ring head, port and polish, upgraded valves, Schieds cam
Turbos - 64/71/13ss with ported and race cover over a s480 with race cover external gated @75-80psi
Fuel - Schieds or St.Joseph diesels built 13mm P7100 pump set from 500cc-1000cc of fuel, schied custom built injectors ( roughly 250hp ), big injector tubes, aeromotive fuel system
Chassis - Built Dana 60 front and Built Dana 80 rear with lockers and HD axles, traction bars and other suspension mods
Transmission - NV4500 5 speed rebuilt with HD shafts, cyro treated gears, 5th gear nut fixed, Southbend Dual Disk Pulling Clutch, scatter shield for trans and blanket
Body - Total respray in a dark metallic blue with black line-x bottom half and undercoat
Interior - Full black leather swap

Pretty much what I want done to the truck hopefully motor, trans and axles and stuff will be done this summer if money allows since it will cost around 15k or so with me doing most of the work and finding deals. Power output should be no less than 700whp with the fuel and turbos that will be in place and motor will be able to handle 1000+hp with torque peaking out at 1400-1800+ ft/lbs. Depending on how I tune the pump in.

Goal is to break 500whp just to say i did and with the setup i'm going with it should be a problem. If a e85 station ever pops up locally i'll make the switch and turn up the boost.

I want to witness this!!

For my wrx, It is going to be my daily but I might just get nicer wheels for the summer, lower it, and perrin turbo-back.

If I come under some kind of wealth in my future lol Ill look into doing a full sti drivetrain swap or just sell it and get an evo.

DannyGSX · 12-10-2010, 10:37 PM

a working dsm. sell it. evo

Wizdom · 12-15-2010, 06:45 AM

11.49 1/4 mile.

fitftw · 12-15-2010, 10:33 AM

200whp and 2,000lbs.

I'll need a supercharger and about 100 more lbs to remove, but there's not much else to gut.

MikeK · 12-15-2010, 12:38 PM

Winter-
get my STi (even though I basically have it), baby it, not race or any of that unless it's on the track, debadge it (except STi on rear), throw on the rack, snow tires, enjoy it all winter long, cherish it, drive SAFELY

Spring-
Stance coils, defi boost gauge, defi oil pressure gauge, defi control unit, invidia N1 exhaust, new rims (no idea yet)

enjoy every minute with it

jpalamar · 12-15-2010, 01:01 PM

My plans changed for the year because of the suspension failure... Lovells struts/shocks, Lovells strut mounts, Lovells RR bushings, Lovells 30mm drop springs in front, Lovells 25MM drop springs in the rear.

GMM short shifter.

Long tube headers.

LS7 clutch/flywheel since I'm getting up there in miles

Widen rear stock wheels and put atleast 275s on them.

YungSteezy215 · 12-15-2010, 01:10 PM

I wanna go fast!

howyfeltersnatch · 12-15-2010, 04:37 PM

reliable 400hp - silvia

MattBear · 12-15-2010, 04:56 PM

I just want to get my car to a point where it always puts a smile on my face... so probably only another 75lb/ft tq to go...

and I want to get my interior finished the way I have it in my head.

SlaXX · 12-15-2010, 05:33 PM

get some new tires on her and autocross. to keep to my budget and somehow make her even more mean than she already is.

BigWhiteTodd · 12-15-2010, 05:44 PM

hit vtec in reverse as fast as possible

Sublime1304 · 12-16-2010, 12:21 PM

Run low 12s or high 11s with simple bolt ons and a supercharger but still have a reliable daily driver
