This is one bad ass geo metro. It has a Buick GNX 3.8L Turbo V6 in it plus nitrous. Probably just a GN motor w/ a bigger turbo as I doubt a true GNX owner would rip out his ASC/McLaren motor to donate to this car. But still its from a turbo regal 1987 w/ a nitrous kit. I'm assuming its on a tube chasis since its rear wheel drive. I'm surprised the engine fits. Must have a cut up floor to make a tunnel to fit the transmission.

It wouldn't do too well in traffic with the exhaust line from the turbo 3" from the tire :iceslolan . It's a nice job shoehorning that engine in there though!

As dorkula said: just amazing. I will recommend to put some paint job on it and take a little care on the exterior look. The way it is right now is OK for a smasher tournament. Hope to see more pics in the future.

I have thought of putting my 4.3/700r4 in my POS 97' Metro, it's not running right now. 4.3 I have is a Magnum series that came with 3 year/ 100,000 mile warranty and will push S-10 Blazer about 115, Metro should roll. Anybody have any pics of drivetrain on any motor swaps. Drive it like you stole it from your ex-wife! B
