Well, just imagine if Trent needs to visit San Francisco, for whatever reason. Getting up all those hills would be troublesome.

Chris, I think that the light as fuck and cheap platform would be a good idea for a track car or racecar or whatever you were thinking about exactly.

whatever you have power doesn't have to neccessarily make that much because the weight is so low. from a stock M20B25 to a turbo M10 to whatever, it'd be fun :twisted:

of course, I am looking forward to video of Trent's Henna. better come through. and not some lame burnout in the alley.....either track or backroad action in that thang.

Don't you always bitch about never having a place to race a car? What would be the point of having one?

0n tHa stReetz y0!

Swapping in an eta engine is dumb. They're pointless.

Buy a cheap as hell eta, put it into a $200 car, and turn around and sell it as a good reliable daily driver (what it is). I could get at least $2g for it.

a detuned M10......how badly would that suck to drive? :?

50mpg! It's slow in the first place, who cares.

What is this 'vacuum advance'?... sorry for being a noob.

The car really isn't that slow. Feels ok.

Vacuum advance is on the distributor -- gives more timing advance as vacuum increases.

I also run a lower FPR. Stock is 3.0 I run 2.5.
