Lizard Racing 0 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2008 this project sounds awsome but wont there be traction issues with that much bhp?Im not too worried about traction as it will be my daily most likely and I hardly ever drive like a loon anyway, but if it does get silly I will fit a full Haldex system as my next project.Alex Link to post Share on other sites

Why else you would build it? Do you ever track it or drag it? Aren't you interested in what 1/4 mile time it will do? Link to post Share on other sites

Why else you would build it? Do you ever track it or drag it? Aren't you interested in what 1/4 mile time it will do?The passion for me is in the fabrication, design and building of the setup. I only use the best parts and dont cut corners. I make everything myself and spend hours thinking and working out the best ways to overcome problems. I buy the parts from all over the world to get the best deals.There isnt much that beats the feeling you get when you either a: pull away from a prick in a so-called supercar or b: put the car on the rollers and it performs great and faultlessly. There is also great dissapointment when the headgasket blows and..... blah, blah etc :$ Dont get me wrong I love driving them, just not as much as building them Link to post Share on other sites
