Oh, oh, oh, I'm making a Ludicrous Claim®! Read the first post!

[Greycap]

Around 205 cm, very tall still but definitely not as freakish as 220 cm.

 

[Rykon Zero]

Oh. sorry. I retract all previous statements. I am dumb.

 

[Diego440]

I am dumb.

Sorry, this thread is for statements that are not true.

I believe 6ft 9 for a young male, but an old lady? I work with a 20something year old (he's my supervisor actually) who is around 6ft 6 or so.

"I drift a Skyline"

Just nit-picking, but, in Japan, there are as many Skyline drift cars as Silvia and Hachiroku.

 

[Rykon Zero]

I meant the Males in my family. The females are about 5'9-6'0. My grandmother is unrelated to them, as they are on my Grandfather's side, so she's 5'5.

Grandma is 5'8 though she won't admit it

Mom is 5'10

Nana (Great-Grandma) is 5'7

Co Lyn is 5'4

Chu Son is 5'3

And I'm 6'2, phew, I'm glad we cleared that up

 

[Rykon Zero]

Good. Over. Done with. And my uncle owns a Viper. No, really, he does.

 

[Leonidae]

These are my future cars stats.

Power at Flywheel (BHP) : 301
Weight without Driver (KG) : 785
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 389.60
0 - 60 (Secs) : 3.54
0 - 100 (Secs) : 8.61
60 - 100 (Secs) : 5.07
Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.84
Terminal Speed (MPH) : 117.26
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) : 11.74
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) : 118.65

and all this from 1.3l piston engine.

 

[Rykon Zero]

That's possible, in fact, easy.

 

[Keef]

Easier than eating this cinnamon toast that's on my plate.

 

[Leonidae]

Yeah.. but I believe that the car will run out of gear ratios before reaching speed of 120mph, even with 5 speed T50 'box.. unless the gear ratios are fiddled with.

 

[Keef]

I think he's wanting to turbo a Hyabusa engine and put it in a Smart.

 

[Leonidae]

Pfft.. no crotchrocket engines for me. it's just a regular, 1.3l 16 valve unit in a classic FR car.

 

[Metar]

You tree'ed me

Though a Seven is more appropriate for this mod. I always thought Smarts are actually rather heavy...

 

[Leonidae]

Pfft.. it's a Toyota with Toyota engine. about as old as I am. actually older..

 

[Megasoft Office]

Turbo Vitz engine in a Hachiroku?

 

[Leonidae]

Not quite. Turbo Vitz's engine is 1.5l, and I intend to keep this one road legal [Fulfills Finnish road legal requirements at least], even though I will build it in the US. and who knows, maybe with bit of DIY, even 20 valve head could fit there.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

Does it have anything to do with your "engine swap" thread over in cars in general?

 

[Leonidae]

yes.

 

[nd 4 holden spd]

I see, so it's more than just an essay, you're doing it for yourself as well.

 

[Leonidae]

yes, as soon as I get to US, I'll start working towards it.

 

[Diego440]

yes, as soon as I get to US, I'll start working towards it.

and when will this be?

 

[Leonidae]

Within a year or so if everything goes according my plans. of course, emission regulations etc of California might get in my way at some point.. which means that I need to get the car inspected outside that state or something. 💡

You mean you're actually going to the US to live? Didn't see that coming- no sirry Bob. Does that mean a farewell for Greycap? (Assuming you know him in real life too). So this car is a Glanza with a 2A-GE engine (hybrid of 2 different engines)?

 

[Diego440]

I would've thought you were moving to Pennsylvania

 

[Leonidae]

Not a Glanza.. an oldschool RWD starlet from '79-'80. And no, this is not a farewell, I haven't met him IRL yet. and it's not an end to MFT either. MFT will continue as long as possible.
