Dumb Stuff You Just Shouldn't See On The Road!

[-_-StRyDeR-_-]

a mate at work plans to put a supercharged V6 motor into one of those small suzuki 4wd things lol.

[psi]

I recently saw a rover V8 in a HJ ute! WHAT THE!

When i asked the wacko about it.. he just said 'cos its different'

I told him about the majic V8 motors from jap land! He was gobb smacked! I think the rover is on the way out as we speak! He was muttering about his mates cousin has a 1U something Toyota thing.. When i told him what that was.. he acted like he was an ADHD kid in a lolly factory! I dread goin back there in a few weeks! lol

Yesterday on the way to work, I saw a Kia Carnival with spot lights that would make a Kenworth proud.. it also had Mack mud flaps and 3 CB arials. chrome hub caps and what looked like a fake carbon fibre rear wing type device on the roof.

Man that made me laugh! Dopey bugger didn't know what 'look' he was after! Lucky he had NSW plates! lol

[FineLine]

we wernt buying it lol. my brother started talkin GTT with him..

noel ur old that is all

Your retardness really show through at times. I didnt say "YOU" were trying to buy it, i said "he" was trying to sell it.

Mudcrab you are a f**ktard. That is all.

[Lunatikk]

Speaking of f**ktards & all, does anyone know the occupants of a TOTALLY blue R31 4-door residing on the Northside??

This thing had everything but the glass painted in what coulda been house-paint, although I do have a Bic lighter here right now that looks kinda close.......... Had him pull up beside me in moving traffic this arvo & do the std 1/2 length past, fall back & boot it thing. First I thought he was on the clutch & trying to make a real big impression but then I realised the POS was an AUTO & what I was hearing was massive converter flare!!!

Thanx guys, biggest laugh I'd had all day!! The special bus will be waiting for you in the same place Monday...........

bahaha

noel check the SAU classifieds for an orange 211kw SR20 R34

[psi]

U cant complain to much about an SR20 in an R34. don't forget that the R33 was also released (beyond any sense that i can make of) with an RB20e and auto. Now for those of u reading this that don't know what the is, let me explain..

Remember the humble old VL and R31 skylines.. they were made with the RB30e, well, the RB20e (NOT RB20DET) looked exactly the same.. dizzy, 2 valves per cylinder & single cam!

Top Secret also did a stunt like that R34.. remember their racing Supra with (If i remember correctly) a 3SGTE! Thats a 2L!

I'm not saying its a good idea.. but I've seen worse!

Years ago i saw a 2L combi motor in the inboard position on a boat!

Last year my bother in law had an ex-taxi up on his hoist which he asked me to return for him.

It was painted in 2 tone, blue over charcoal. the colours were bad enough, but the paint had texture.. it was hammertone paint!

[dangerous_daveo]

I guess the difference is the 3SGTE is a good motor...

[Nexus9]

maybe not to the tastes of those only interested in jap cars ... but I think this looks pretty tough

quite a few of these running around nowadays ... 500kw+

Very nice Chris

yeh it aint bad. driven a few 3sgte celica gt4 ST185 and ST205 go well enough.

also what engine does the denso GT500 supra run..? 3SGTE.

The 3SGTE is used in the JGTC Supras because they're allowed to do more within the rules - with the smaller engine they can run more boost I think, I don't recall exactly. Anyway they were used not because they're a "better" engine than the 2J, just that it gave them the best chance of winning based on the rules in place.

That M3 is porn, it better not be yours!! Oh and hi Chris

[markimak]

no one said its better than 2jz.

they use the UZ v8 now i think

[psi]

If the Merc that i was talking about looked half as clean as this schweeet looking beemer, then i probably wouldn't have started this thread!

Perfectly exicuted mods.. brilliant finish! I want it!

As for the 3SGTE, I beleive it was (dogdy) rules which inspired the boys to go for the 2L transplant. Doing this helped them in many area's like car balance and thermal control and also allowed them to do some other things which were not permitted with the mighty 2J. I have also heard that those rules have since been changed, but I cant say for sure that it is true!

But, SR20 into R34 does not meet such scrutiny.. maybe only from us! Perhaps he should have gone for the Q45 or similar..

253 holden v8 in a C210 Skyline.....just so many kinds of wrong. yet very cool at the same time.

[psi]

yea.. seen that before! had a really stupid cam in it. it was so lumppy the thing wouldn't idle anything under 1100 rpm! but funny as heck when my mate test drove it.. the looks from people at the lights as it 'lumped' its stupid butt off! He never bought it! But he really thought about it!

no, the prize still goes to the Kia.. any better offers? Do i need to add a cash bonus?

[Col-GTSX]

1100cc Yahama powered go kart mabey???

I would have thought a Mini with a V8 would have to be up there tho...

Have a look on youtube "V8 mini" there are some funny clips... Imagine a chunky V8 right behind you head...

The only dodgy rules thing I think was that they could run higher boost cos it was less displacement, but toyota used 3s-gte in racing for a long time, it's a really good engine, was used in le mans trd supras back in the 90s too. I think they mostly used it cos they could make the same hp goal (500+) they would have with the 2jz, good torque for its size, lighter and better balance etc.

If you're restricted on power anyway, using a lighter engine with more boost is the way to go

Its funny when people dont know who owned what cars

Anyway, dont knock Kias man. We had a kia carnival grande as a hire car. They are bloody awesome. All seats recline, cupholders everywhere, 3 zone climate control, a SUB!!! and they are massive.

HAHAH yer we had that bloke turn up to the 31 skyline club dyno day last weekend, though he would be cool and do a burn out as he left, although he failed to realise we had his name and rego from the dyno entry and also quite a few members with cameras out, total retard.

As for crazy conversions, Honda S2000 engines in the engine bays of S600 and S800's, couple of crazy euro's have done this, they fly. the little standard S600 only weighs around 600kg all up
