So if you had an unlimited budget, and were set about building a dream car what would it be? Don't just say R35, or Ferrari x etc , I want to know builds that you've always wanted to see but never had the funds to do yourself.

Excuse my ignorance when it comes to cars (I am learning, I promise!), but I would personally love to see a;

S13 body with a S15 front (the front being for looks more than anything, I don't know if it makes the car any lighter).

RB26DETT head with a RB30DE bottom, bored out, ported (does ported = bored?) and polished, fully rebuilt with all the works.

A hefty turbo upgrade suitable for the RB30, maybe the T88, or a nice Garrett. I dunno, I drive an N/A so I haven't looked into turbos too much yet.

Add all the bells and whistles to make such a build work.

Basically, it'd be a light weight car with a monster engine. I don't know if a build like this could work, or whether its been done before (if it has, please post a link), but I figure if the engine fits it could be a pretty realistic build with some very nice results.

2x holden HX premiers blue with white roof (i already have one but its stock) lowered on some nice cragar rims all body stock all original interior bench seats etc. suspension set up so the thing could at least have a bit of handling!

Engine for car 1 - a nice addition of a corvette LS9 supercharged 7 litre or somethin like that V8. worked up again to anihilate tyres in any gear. i wouldn't stop till i could count the cylinders firing the cam was that lumpy.

Engine number 2 - tokyo drift style Rb26/30 with massive single turbo conversion somethin big enough to suck small children off the street with! and all the accesories straight out of japan to get her goin - cooler, fuel pump, injectors you know the story.

sounds like good to me.

when everyone is finished building theirs we will have to go for a cruise!

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
