Best Touge Car?

[MarshallMX5]

AW11 MR2
-turbo 13b, approx 320 bhp
-Porsche G50 'box
-front end cut off at firewall, replaced with tube-frame (coil-overs)
-cheap aluminum stock car rad
-most of the rear-end cut out, semi-tube-framed.
-intercooler mounted at the back of the roof, with sprayer
-50 shot of nitrous (that way you can have controllable power in the corners, with a good burst on the straights)
-15" wheels, with the widest tires I could find, maybe even slicks, depending on the road.
-stock-car brakes (ie. wilwood, or something along those lines)
-big multi-element rear wing
-big front splitter with dive-planes on either side

wins.

but more realistically mine would be a stripped, roll-cage equiped,coilover equipped streetported ITB'd 20B (3-rotor) in a NA (early) Miata. on 13x8 hoosiers.

this wouldn't be bad either:

I don't know if 13x8's will give you the speed you need though. I think a mountain machine should be N/A though.

[MarshallMX5]

yeah maybe, but all the "touge" around here is so tight and twisty its almost more like autocross with a little more room than a big two-lane road. Hence the stupid autocross setup.

i would like something with not too much power, just able to take the abuse and really relaible.

ca18det, fmic and small bolt-ons

electric fans

300zx brakes, slotted rotors
15x8 watanabes 8 spoke
tein coilovers W/ edfc to adjust conditions

pilot strut tower bars
1 way diff
roll bar and rear interior gutted

gps system incase i get lost and a space for my lunch box (the ones that keep your luchcold)

[Ziptyed]

[sdtouge]

[Ziptyed]

[Ziptyed]

I've thought of that idea before too... Before we got the corvette, my father and I were thinking about something quite similar to that for road racing. However, our version would be 13b turbo, open top with a formula car-style roll-hoop, and the passenger's side filled in (similar to what mazdaspeed did, I think). Good aero, light weight, and good power... it would have been fast. But then we got the 'vette, and it has worked quite well for us.

i think is the grand cherokee 98.....jkin!! i think that those SUV where build to flip over jar jar jar...

[MeetYouAtTheTop]

some sort of beasted out old chaser or soarer filled with suspension goodies and maybe a diferent engine

[sdtouge]

that miata with the 13b is pretty nuts

just lose the paint and lambo doors and its a touge monster

Wouldn't it make more sense to get the hardtop?
