How Would You Build A Street Sleeper?

[bozodos]

I was considering a VT Executive with a manual before I bought the R32, only problem was that I couldn't find one which looked completely and utterly stock.

That right there is hilarious.

There's a mid eighties corolla up here that looks stock but really moves. Sounds like an SR20DET. Funny thing is, it really doesn't matter what type of car you use (that said I'd steer clear of a Lamborghini as a sleeper) just so long as it looks rough!

How many bloody S13's and R33's do you know of that are CLEARLY owned by young'uns who've never heard of engine oil? It has cheap rims, lowered to buggery thanks greatly to the half-tonne of stereo equipment, tacky seat covers and goes nearly as well as an ex-taxi EB Falcon with 4,000,000 kms on the clock?

The ones that are eager to race ANYTHING at the lights and get cocky if they beat a hearse that's in the middle of a funeral precession? Go for the wank look I say! They're the ones that'll really stun the owners of nice but lightly modified imports.

But then people may throw things at you and your girlfriend will probably leave you and you may find yourself drawn towards the wasteland threads. It's a slippery slope mate......

LOL.

Do you remember V6 Vengance from Street Commodores? In its final incarnation it ended up with a turbo and respectable quarter mile times, and looked for all intents and purposes like a 500 000km bomb.

oh and this old banger lol

There is a heap of cars you can choose from but for the true sleeper spec you must have....

1x Box of tissues on the back seat parcel shelf

1x Straw wide brim hat " " " " " " "

1x Carpet dash protector (on the dash)

No one will expect to be wooped with that shit inside!!!

Plus get a new bigger intercooler and spray it black then take off all the turbo badges.

I remember there was a guy that rocked up to a dyno day in a VB commodore wagon, rusted yellow colour, rusted rims, rust throughout the body, dog in the back, bogan stickers, poo brown interior, hell even the lugnuts were rusted...

Under the bonnet there was an RB20 with a nice fat turbo.....

Thing is none of these are sleepers. Everyone knows what a chaser is now, the same goes for a stagea, V35's are incredibly flashy, KE70's are modified for drift all the time,  an AE86 is the opposite of a sleeper in every way - its only (arguably) the most famous import OF ALL TIME, and the Z series of cars are incredibly recognisable.

Modified they manage to be even more un-sleeperish.

Yeah you would recognise it, but not the average daily drivers or ppl you know are only into a certain type of car(s).

subaru liberty wagon.. 3rd gen.. with a late model wrx engine and running gear.. keep standard wheels, just wrap em in semi slicks, and just lower it a little.. with a quiet exhaust and non obtrusive tip.. you would never pick it.

[Bliksem]

Dunno how you feel about Rotors but a Mazda 626 or Mazda 929 with a 13B or 20B might be worth considering
