DRAG IMPORTS BUILD OFF

[jhuntsman]

Is anyone else gonna build anything for this??

[rolltide]

I'm in, I'll try my hand at a honda civic.

Noob question. Does it have to have to be stock or can I swap engines and all that?

[shucky]

I may be in. Let me see what I have when I get home.

Yes you can swap engines, interior, slicks but it still have to look like an import.

These shots have been taked a week ago and I did a couple more things to it the last weekend. I striped all the paint, I did the turbo, the intake, the exhaust manifold, the rear bumper and I finished the front bumper. I'll take pictures of it tomorrow.

I came up with something myself ... will hopefully post some mock ups this weekend.

[20PSI]

Good idea cuz there's no one post pictures and seems to show interest

By the way, I did some progress and i'll show pictures pretty soon.

[jasoncamaro]

i will have some pics soon just have to get another donor chassis for my build

[rolltide]

Still preping the Nissan body, seems to be taking forever. Always something to address.

Will post pics once I make some progress

[20PSI]

I Cant wait to see these pictures!

[rolltide]

Wow, its taking me forever, however, I should have those pics up by saturday.

[3men2s]

after going thru some hot vw mags...i

changed my mind, I am building something

more old school instead of the pro mod.

will give it a full drag racing chassie

but no turbo, will be a doble webb set up

gas.

color, maibe a baby blue or canary....

[remingtonbox]

Would a Fiat 500 count? If not, I will see what I can russell up... I'll get back with you.

EDIT: I am either going to enter a Fiat Topolino or a Porsche 911... you tell me which one would fit better.

[20PSI]

Both are good but a porsche 911 dragster should be very cool.

[20PSI]

Oh my lord!

[remingtonbox]

Cool... I will go with the Fiat Topolino. The kit has not been rereleased... but I will get started as soon as I get one.

I am going to clone a famous altered from the past...

On second thought maybe I will go with a Mercedes Gullwing set up for drag racing... I guess I have some time to decide.

[wgflatliner]

if i can find an FD3S mazda RX-7 that actually has the fully detailed rotory motor, then count me in.

i THINK tamiya makes one. Not entirely sure though. It's the RX-7 R1 Tamiya Item#: 24116

This should only put me in two build-offs. This and the street trucks.

p.s. anybody able to tell me where i can find "upgraded" turbos? from a semi-truck model or something maybe?
