very awesome, wow this would cause suicides in the HSV world after a traffic light duel

[haveaparty]

cheers sam, i hope to start doing work soon, still waiting for parts that are "lost in the mail", but can start stripping the pano down if i get time this weekend.
i got a build thread on 86dc and rollaclub too. i literally spent all day yesterday on the computer cause work was getting audited and making new build threads waisted a whole lot of time.

why not use the k24a mated to a w5* with a megregor bell more cubes and more power out of the box and no major tunnel mods

[haveaparty]

Cause I just spent all this moni on wat I've got now and all I hav to do is slightly mod the tunnel and make mounts. No need to find gearboxes and bellhousings. I'll be using the complete running gear out of the s2000

[Moppitt]

And that gearbox is worth doing everything you can to keep it. Its one of the best boxes I've had the pleasure of driving (thats right... I went there... ).

Interesting project, subscribed

When I saw the thread title a series of harsh words alluding to the fact that you were a blasphemous heathen were already forming in my mind.

Then I saw a picture of an S2000 with all it's running gear and realised I'd be a blasphemous heathen if I had that at my disposal too.

[haveaparty]

s2000 gearbox is one of the boxes u can get, bolt on a massive turbo and will handle the power no probs.

im not sure wat a blasphemous heathen is, i looked the words up in a dictionary and it doesnt make any sense.

stripped the pano out on the weekend, will post pics wen i can, computer is being homo right now

[playwme]

im not sure wat a blasphemous heathen is,

It's a religous type reference. It's someone who's gone completely against their chosen faith. We all know that Toyota's are the best cars, and putting a non toyota engine in would seem like completely the wrong thing to do. After seeing the title I thought maybe you had a Civic or Integra engine, which would be questionable. The S2000 though has a one of a kind driveline that should be put in whatever it can fit into. Cool project and I can't wait to see some updates.

[haveaparty]

Oh I get u now lol. And for the record. I'm not a hater of Honda in any way shape or form. This continuous battle between Honda and toyota has to end soon. That's y I thought I would combine the two and get the best of boh worlds. Pics up tmoro hopefully.

[haveaparty]

updates.

rust areas
will get new bonnet, will be goin quad lights so wont worry bout that till the time comes,
water in the rear window channels, want to make the rear windows like the two door wagons so the rust there isnt an issue.
and on the tail gate, easy peasy fix

[haveaparty]

started stripping the interior
will take all the sound deadning out, dry ice will do the trick
gunna try and keep the heater core if possible, but will take it out so it downt get damaged

[haveaparty]

as the rigs sit to date









also a good note, the parts that got 'lost' in the mail, he has brought me new ones and now these are in the mail, with registered post and a tracking number so they wont misteriously go missing

[RA35GT]

I heard about this today and gotta say THIS IS FARKING KEWL!!
