Yes like that, except I did notice that the tunnel was widened like what Mike said, this I did not notice before. I should have taken note of that. But then again, the alto propshaft may not need that much clearance... Just speculation right now, but maybe worth going down to the import shop and take tape measure and camera... I will see what I can come up with..

that's where I got my inspiration - I have the same running gear as ringmini, but I'm doing my back-end different. If you look through his photos, not one of them shows how he's done his exhaust - no fair!

His exhaust goes down the tunnel and out the side of the car infront of the rear wheels via a 1 * 6 inch outlet. I spied it on one of their many videos..... It was the red ute powered by the suzuki motor but they are all the same from the same group of guys.

It might be worth investigating the torque distribution of the Alto. Problem with MOST of the AWD is that the torque distribution is woeful. More often than not its 70/30. The Gti-r gear I had was 50/50 and had three viscous LSD's.......

For what its worth I have a complete gti-r rear end and tail shaft that I held onto. Andy (Tricky/Archangle007) and I had it up under the mini. The whole assembly will fit no worries. All that would be required is bootfloor mods, some large inset (neg offset) wheels and a 'cradle' that will hold the gti-r rear end into the where the mini subframe would ordinarilly mount.

yeah JC - the red one is easy to spot - there are pictures, it's the blue one that I want to see the exhaust on

the red one is from Norway, the blue one is from Germany - different group

I remembered where I saw the fake mini kits.
These are daihatsus not suzukis, but I'm sure you can get them with turbos...

Check these out.










This last one is just too funny!!!!
Anyone remeber these from GT2.

Cheers
