Sounds like you got a decent project on your hands, but it'll take a little more than just an engine and turbo (suspension, chassis work, and the right rubber) to get it deep into the twelves. Corrado's can be some heavy bitches. But it's fun to cut the shit out of them. I've got a friend of mine that is running a 10 sec corrado all motor. You should see the chassis work gone into this car. Got to love the plasma cutter!
ps - sorry if I came off like an ass earlier. You know how it is with all the little Fast and Furious (Slow and Frustrated) fuckers out there. :rock:

not a problem. yeah, i know it's gonna be tough getting down that low with my pig, but it will be fun getting there. any more info on that corrado? over on another site (whoretex  ), i've never heard about it. so more info would be cool. cause there are only like 3 all motor VR6's in the country

He's not running the VR6 :yummy: Here's a link to check out the car.
http://race101.com/team_nate.html
Nate heads up Race101. Anthony Dowd is also part of it. He is running an all-motor 2.8L VR6. Was he one of the one's you were talking about?

Re: fast car
McLaren F1 is way over-priced, rated and hyped... has the car one LeMans? Has it ever won a F1 builders trophy... has done shit? And shit that video is hardly a fair race... nissan vs McLaren... shit... why not this GT40vsMcLaren... GT40 is by far the best car ever made and its a Ford... lol THE ONLY CAR TO WIN SO MUCH IT GOT BANNED!!!! Its 1st year at LeMans it was able to get 1st 2nd and 3rd... beat that McLaren...

Re: fast car
Way to get your facts straight. The year the McLaren F1 was introduced it one every race it entered except one. In 1995 it won Le Mans on its first attmept. Other McLarens in the race took 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 13th places. Also, that's some really nice grammar. You sure seem intelligent.

Re: fast car
Why is there always a ricer banter whenever someone metions a import? I have owned a couple Mustangs, a Z28, and a Civic Hatchback. And for daily driving the Civic owns the mustangs and Z28! And Yes I had a body kit on it! So I guess that makes me a ricer! Eventhou I could eat most domestics. And for a young man who cant afford a 7k crate motor that puts out 500hp I think the import fans are on the right path!

Since they are out of production, we can talk used cars and the price to mod them.......... much easier now to find a car for the same money (taking a 5 year window) to beat a LS1.
