coltboostin Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 So are you suggesting I do a FB? Lightest RWD solid axle you will find with any aftermarket. Since its solid Axle- easily/cheaply upgradeable to unbreakable parts. Great aero for the price Easy to find rust free shells, since Rotary motors are as reliable as aids in Africa. I only know of one, stock as aids, and it goes bottom 11's on chrome wheels and street tires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bam Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 AND it fits under the stock fucking hood. troof! Granted I'm not cool like the big boys w/ an ls1...but this was fun and sexy. http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4129/5222608069_eb8d3149a7.jpg Fit under the stock hood, EFI would have even more room. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5244/5287514702_f9c9b545c8.jpg Fit 26x10.5's on factory foxbody wheels no issue. Weighed 2400lbs w/ a full interior and 16 gallons in the tank. Easy math says it weighs under 2300lbs w/ only a couple gallons in the tank, and that's a cast block.

Starlet- 1,652 lb FB RX7- 2,300 lb RWD, solid rear axle, ford 8.8 is nearly direct swap, easily tubbed, huge aftermarket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrblunt Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 996/997tt or used GTR. Toss some money Switzers way and have one pimp ass fast ride. Luxury + fast is way cooler than early 80s styling deathtraps. Arent you sick of riding around in tin can swaps yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So says the Toyota nut-swinger. 1) Those weights you are comparing is a STOCK STARLET to a 5.0 swapped FB! LOL FB's are way under 2k with Rotaries in them, and I have seen a stock starlet on a scale, and it was over 1800lbs. 2) Aero sucks if he's trying to do anything involving highway racing/standing mile 3) FB is longer he's trying to do anything involving highway racing/standing mile 4) FB has MUCH better aftermarket/factory options (GLS-SE brakes, suspension..ect) 5) Have fun finding a starlet for 2 dollars. There are 5 clean FB shells for sale, right now (one being a GLS-SE big brake/rear end car) for sale right now for $500 and down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patterson Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 I'm a believer of the FB qoutient. I'm starting to question my choice in chassis. But if you were to listen to Chris I've got more than enough bank roll to cover the difference in weight with more power. Actually he's right, but I'm not gonna tell him that.

LOL FB's are way under 2k with Rotaries in them, and I have seen a stock starlet on a scale, and it was over 1800lbs. Just quit talking... Do some research on curb weights and show me where you find that an FB is less than 2000lbs from factory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 My Eyeballs is all the research I need. I have witnessed one on the scale, stock 12a. 1875 lbs GLS-SE will weight more. Is that the only point your going to refute? Thats not much of an argument brosef. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the only point your going to refute? Thats not much of an argument brosef. You don't know shit about Starlets. Again, you're clueless and prove me wrong.. I want to see facts. Not, "OH BUT I SAW ONE ON THE SCALE ONCE DURR DUR DURRRRRRRR." Edit* Also, you can fuck off for calling me a Toyota nutswinger, I'm surprised you quit jerking off to the memory of your Colt long enough to make a post. :gtfo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Yup. I Dont know shit. This is the Corolla we switched to since the Starlet was so sketchy up top. http://www.buschurracing.com/racing-jerrytoyota.htm I had my hands on this car more than Dave Buschur himself. I was actually the one that facilitated David tuning the car when we switched to AEM. It was only 60lbs heavier than the starlet, stock for stock. But yes, I don't know what I'm talking about. I am sure you have much more experience than I with very high HO light, RWD platforms. So, I will let you, the expert, have the reins here.
