it's the same 1500cc honda motor as I'm working on, only with a turbo on the front of it.... I like how they cut the front so the turbo can stick out, can you imagine what that'd look like at night with the turbo glowing red hot? :twisted:

Typical..... no respect for someone else's hard work..... and since when does a race car need to be perfect? It would probably crap all over most of our cars, performance wise.

Maybe you guys should read / look at his page, and take note of where he lives....

I say "good work".

i'm with sc850
there has been alot of work gone into that lil beast
and it is a race car so the turbo sticking out the front is probably due to space limitations and for visial effect or intimidation
like a statement that its not your usual mini

that's why I posted it - it's a machine built for one thing and screw what it looks like, if I could get away on the street with a turbo sticking out the front like that I reckon I'd do it to my van - it says "I'm fast, if you wanna play, get on the line beatch"

Ah, this now reminds me of a SAAB that was at the 2000 Melbourne Autosalon.... the turbo was too big to fit under the bonnet, so the guy cut a hole in the bonnet.... turbo was half in and half out with no bonnet scoop to protect it.... pity he didnt polish that turbo aswell.... :roll:

hehehe - I like it, maybe I should put a hole in the bonnet and perspex cover over my supercharger when I finally get around to fitting it - I don't want it to get rained on
