[bengee]

I know nothing about this car but i dont think it will ever be a monster...

 

[Famine]

I heard of someone getting one of these up to 230mph.

He dropped it out the back of a C3.

Yah,,its sort of like the one in the pic..tts a normal vivio, the one I mentioned is a subaru vivio RXR..its in one of the PSone GT games. The diff from the one in the pic is the RXR is a 2 door version with supercharged engine with air scoup on the bonnet.I've got my hands on one recently n laid it in my fren's garage..got it boosted to 1 bar by changing the pulley in the supercharger.wanted to do more things but prob is...no parts and the Japanese are betta with this car.Things we did were like replacing the original front strut with a cusco one, changing to a Delphi Freedom engine,changing the pulley,adding a HKS boost meter..tts abt all( roll cage yet to install cos its too impractical for daily use).Its all very superficial...I jus tot someone out there could help..Its not nice to lose to the civic driving old uncles out there.I jus feel this car deserves more.Tks for ur replies.

You can drop the engine from a '91 Grand Marquis in it.

 

[hannes]

yes bro..tks for ur help..but the bonnet of this thing is very small..so u reckon it will fit? and yah..a u can see,I m living in a plc where the engine u mentioned is not to be found?It gotta be shipped over from the US?how much is one if I try to find sources there to ship me one from scrapyards in the US?Is this engine u mentioned running on turbo or wat?

 

[Klostrophobic]

I'll give you one that barely runs. You have to pay for the shipping though. It runs on luck. No turbo.

It's got a massive 5.0 L V8 pushing 150 horses.

 

[hannes]

150hp???wow...tts hell off alot man...U sure abt it being able to fit into the RXR?But,if I strip the engine and do some maintenance to it will it be fine?yah man if u decide to give me of cos I'll pay for the shipping?Btw, where r u from?u r a mechanic?

 

[Klostrophobic]

I'm from the East Coast of the United States. It probably isn't worth you paying for the engine. It isn't likely to fit anyway.

I'm not a mechanic. I'm just a 17 year old kid that barely knows anything about cars.

 

[hannes]

yah,,,checked the specs out...aint likely to fit anyway,the condenser and radiators are way too big also,...anyway..thks

Please - for the love of God, just stop.

 

[hannes]

wats your problem?

 

[vat_man]

There are some cars that are appropriate for performance enhancements - the Vivio, with its Kei car body, and tiny wheels, is not one of them.

Ahh - wait, you're in another country. Knock yourself out.

 

[hannes]

Observe the following points:
- I have no problem with your country. Please don't attempt to imply that I do, when I've said nothing of the sort.
- cut the attitude back a notch. I said nothing personal and certainly intended nothing personally. You could do me the same courtesy.
- if you want to wind up your Vivio, go ahead - but bear in mind the following: brakes, transmission, clutch, tyres, drive shafts, CV joints, radiator, and so on. Good luck!

I'm in another country, but I'm not fond of knocking myself out - can I simply drink until I pass out, instead?

That would be acceptable. Photos please.

Assumably I'd be passed out, so you'll just have to imagine it.

 

[Klostrophobic]

Can't you set the camera up to take photos every couple minutes or something just before you pass out? Or get a video camera, or have someone take the pictures for you. Like your dog.

THINK!
