Questionable modifications: pictures inside!

[Slash]

Oh my god. Way to ruin my favorite body style...

 

[Tornado]

Needs more Mark Hamill.

 

[Cano]

That car is absolutely awesome. I love 70s street freak Vettes.

 

[Slash]

The only thing cool is the shaker hood scoop.

 

[Wiegert]

Funny. I don't have any major issues with how it looks except for the hood scoop. It looks tacked on.

That and those stupid rear window scoops. Otherwise, while questionable, the bodykit isn't half bad.

Both of those are things that were on the cars in the '60s. The shaker scoop is actually mounted to the air cleaner on top of the engine so when you give the engine gas it shakes through the hood, hence the name. It is fully functional.

The scoop was the Shelbys in the '60s.

Old school shaker:

Modern

 

[Beeblebrox237]

I know they were used in the past, but that doesn't mean that I'll like them.

 

[The Flex]

The culprit should go to jail for that.

 

[Tornado]

This is fully functional too:

Doesn't mean it isn't tacky as hell.

*Corvette*

That looks a lot like a Hotwheels car I had when I was younger.

*Grand Am*

Let's stick as many holes on the front as we can! 💡

 

[playnthru]

A BOSS 429 style scoop would look much better on that Mustang in my opinion.

That 70's Vette is awesome.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

The culprit should go to jail for that.

Which one? If you say the Mustang than I'm seriously thinking you're trolling.

 

[RocZX]

rear engined Vette

The engine is fake. It has the real one up front. WAT

If the engine run the car, it would be really cool.



The Mustang from The Need for speed moive..........

And this thing........

 

[Cano]

Hahahaha that yellow thing is awesome

 

[Slash]

The Mustang isn't too bad compared to the black one, especially because it has 900hp

There y'go. Questionable 👍

 

[Firehound427]

Dat Fart Can! Oh man... All you ricers, your excuse is now invalid!

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

A kid at school has one of those on his Silverado. Sounds like a broken lawnmower.

Don't they? I hate diesels in general though.

 

[Joel]

Yeah, having gobs of torque in a small displacement engine sucks!

 

[Beeblebrox237]

Especially when they get significantly better mileage than petrol engines.

I respect that they make lots of power, but I hate how they sound, how they smell, hate working on them etc. It's just me though, a lot of my friends are diesel guys.

 

[Beeblebrox237]

I'll certainly grant that they don't sound nice, nor do they rev well. They're pretty utilitarian, but not for a sports car.

 

[Joel]

I mean I don't think I'd buy a diesel for a weekend toy, but they can make a plain car a lot of fun to drive. My mom's Golf is a diesel and the torque is just hilarious at times. Dad's Touareg is also just so much smoother to drive compared to his old Enclave simply because you have so much low end torque.

I agree the low end torque is great but you can get the same with a gas engine, sometimes right off idle.

 

[Joel]

You can't find a 1.4L 4cyl gas engine with 200 lb-ft of torque that does 6L/100km. A turbo'd V6 can come close but I don't think you'll find a 3.0L V6 that puts out over 400 lb-ft of torque like the diesel in the VW Touareg/Audi Q7. Much less at 9L/100km or so.

True, not one that small anyways. The only way I could see that happening is if it's cammed and runs on extremely high compression.

On a big V8 you can, but not on a small, efficient petrol engine. I'd still have the petrol engine.
