    what do you guys think...if i got something like this i think it would be fun...work on it and get it to about 400-1900whp, somewhere in there and i would be happy!

    I posted a thread like this before but list off some of the project cars that you want to do!

    I have millions of stupid project car ideas. And unless I win the lottery, they wont see the light of day.

    Beck 550 speedster w/ STi powerplant
    2.5RS coupe with built motor
    240Z w/ RB26DETT and RWD
    and the list goes on and on.

    haha, yea. at RS it made 273whp, 269 wtq at 16psi (the wg has a 14psi spring). so we were having boosting issues - it wouldn't go past 16psi, so i don't know what the deal is. i never addressed the issue because i got bored with the car :( (might be the profecBII, the wg or the wg vac lines, miniscule boost leak, or something else). the set-up should be able to go a lot further though (apexi power fc, hks 264 cams, blah blah blah)

    yeah, redheaded kid with a blue 240 with the sr20det.
    he said something about a friend with a newer ka-t setup.
    i thought it might be you.

    he is doing alot of drift events with his this year.
    his little brother mitch has a white one with a silvia kit, full tein drift setup, stock engine. he keeps running into things though. :( they have like 4 front bumpers under their backyard deck. :)
