Z32 Gear/LSD







Also coming up a few shots of my two FD's, a Cup-car Pug 207 and a mile-eating Ultra-Bee :)
All feedback is welcome:crazy:

Slight update to ma Beetle. I use the RUF GT Chassis and it works well. Thing is, I put all upgrade parts on it and it now has 1286HP. This thing is a TRACK MONSTER!! It accomplished a 1:15:326 on Laguna Seca with Racing Softs and 1:19:539 on Sports Softs. AMAZING little car.

There is one problem..... I can't find a real-life version of this beast. I've only found a rocket powered year 2000 Beetle. It's not that hard is it? Theoretically speaking, you can twin turbo the boxer engine from a CTR Yellow Bird and upgrade everything else in it, right?

I dont think this would work on the premium version. Without the 5727cc paint only the Renown decals change color.

Correct. I have tried both versions and only the standard model gets painted like that, the premium version does not. Nice pictires btw. 👍
 
I was looking at the Copen Kei car and I saw a potentially great idea. The description says there was a 1.3 litre model available. So I pitch this idea to you, an RX8 powered Copen. No turbos, no engine tuning just a simple 1.3 Two Rotor engine swap.:)

Needs RWD lol
 
That choice I left up to anyone who builds it. The engine whilst stock is not too excessive for the Front Drive layout, but if they go for more power out of the 2 Rotor then Rear Drive is recommended.:)
 
Update on my Venom.

Experimented with different exhaust sounds from other cars and ended up mixing both the sound of the Elise and W12 Nardo Concept. It sounds pretty close to the real thing, just increase the bass on your TV/Sound System.

I think if you left it as it is now with RWD it would be a good competitor against the GT86.

Is this the new or old Copen?

It can be based on either Copen but the only real question is, Standard or Premium? The choice is yours.:) I would think on some sports hards or softs, 245hp and weighing less than a ton would do some damage. Of course anyone who builds it will have a potent base to go nuts with full on N/A, turbo or even Supercharged. This whole idea is based on the fact that the Copen was sold with a 1300cc engine which is the same size as the 2 Rotor, so I just put two and two together for someone to try out. :)

Oddly enough I have one with 900hp.. It can be quite a handful!
 
^ well it was an larger engine with a large turbo setup.. I will most likely be detuning or redoing it altogether .. It isn't a perfect setup..
On a different note I just completed my Yashio Factory Vitz( pics later) and it is wonderfully accurate!

Funny you bring up the YF Vitz. Was watching BM earlier today and it was there! I too have a supercharged Yaris/Vitz albeit with a bit more power.:) if you do rebuild the Copen give the RX8 2 Rotor a shot. Probably more controllable with a smooth power band.
 
Just finished a new quirky little project car that I think you'll all enjoy. Will post pics in about 10 minutes. In the meantime...

The Mazda HamsterZam AZ-1 Type RZ!

She's a feisty little critter!

Just be careful, if you don't feed her...

I won't make a "Specifications" section, because it's only an engine swap; a 2 Rotor from the '93 Type RZ FD RX-7 (which is possible given the tiny size of the 2 rotor). Power sits at 272HP, and weighs in at a lean 720KG.
