It's a hobby and that (insert dollar amount here) is stretched out over a period of time so it doesn't bother me one bit.

and i care why? There are so many 240s around now it is the new civic, all kiddies are DRIFTERZ YOZ!!!

If I get a RWD it will be a Duramaz/Allison Sierra, or a BB classic Olds.

zukiracer19 · 11-03-2010, 01:56 PM

I'd rock a AE86 if I could find one, or a rx7.

slw240sx · 11-03-2010, 04:17 PM

its a SR5 not a GTS, but still a good start at a RWD project to beat around in.

zukiracer19 · 11-03-2010, 06:30 PM

I was looking at this GTS, Its on Tristatetuners, sex

GTsuper · 11-03-2010, 07:16 PM

looking at this for a n/a build but not sure yet

parts from wottech

pistons .20 ovr 4032 alloy 11.5 comp 674.98

ls6 springs 69.99 seats 24.99

cam street strip 299.99

lifters 149.99

headers 374.99

65 mm tb 199.99 t/b ad 49.99

head gaskets 39.99
intake gaskets 79.99

cam bearings 54.99

tri bearings 34.99

upper intake 59.99

lower 3500 99.99

heads 349.99

but some of this aint 100 % like the heads and the 3500 intakes im also gonna start with a bare block and performance bearings and ****e so 2700 call it and think gtp injectors out of a junk yard cleaned up theres ways to save you really dont have to get performace bearings and all that crap auto zone stock replacements would work too. or go out search for a low mile 3800 that will run you 12-1800 bucks

thats too much of a stretch for the wheel fitment hes running. thats actually pretty ugly when it comes to good fitment and tire stretch. tire stretch is actually a bit functional when it comes to sliding the car around. stretching the sidewalls tight keep them from flexing and rolling alot when your going into slides. all though on high speed setups and higher HP cars they do not allow for enough traction and usually are better for the lower powered cars like that corolla. alot of the cars we track are running 265 -285 out back and 245 to 275's up front. anything smaller and the cars are like driving on ice at decent speeds.

did you include any cost of machine work or assembly work for the motor itself?

GTsuper · 11-04-2010, 08:30 PM

no when your a mechanic or know how to assemble a engine with tourqe specs but the boar process if your lucky and search can run 150 to 250 if needed

with 11.5 comperssion really its like charging it mr 36 pounders on a stock pump

AaronGTR · 11-04-2010, 09:01 PM

Yeah, um... that hachi is ugly! Wheels and tires do not fit it properly. Not only is it not functional, it looks retarded.

bigstribs · 11-05-2010, 07:27 AM

If you believe its that easy then proceed.... cause I was running 11:1 comp and it was way more than needed and I take it your planning on decking the block and/or the heads to hit that number or are you stroking it? cause just boring the block is not gonna give you the #'s you want.
