Purely in the head of the driver, maybe. But, I am willing to pay a little more for a more user friendly vehicle, one that does not rattle like crazy, or is too loud, or is too small, or too common, and handles very well in the wet
 I also like to be a little different.

Re: What's Better Fully Dun Up Vette Or Fully Dun Up Skyline GTR V-Spec2
without getting deeper into this, you can make alot of cars do everything your car does, including:
not rattle not be too loud not be too small, too common handle well in the rain different is the only real major key for the skyline... but you knew that... |

Re: What's Better Fully Dun Up Vette Or Fully Dun Up Skyline GTR V-Spec2
without the car in front of me, i can only hypothesize on the pricing...
it depends on which car, what motor is in it, etc. for fun, i can guarantee that i could make an s-10 run 11's, corner and brake in your range for that price... hmm... |

Sorry,
I said car  But, could you show me a S-10 that meets these requirements? Its going to have a nice quite exhaust, be able to go to the airport to pick up mom and dad? Handle over 70mph on a 700 ft slalom? over a g on the skid plate? I am intrigued?

Re: What's Better Fully Dun Up Vette Or Fully Dun Up Skyline GTR V-Spec2
it's not hard to have a quiet exhaust on any motor, and still make power...
if i were to build one, i'd use 2 resonators and a quiet high flow muffler. not that hard... s10's can handle well, and they take a 350 easily... and cheaply... |

Suspension, that is were I am lost at. Yes you can install a 350, but the handling is where I am lost at?
Can you show me a 350 s-10 with over 1g on the pad, and over 70mph on the 700ft slalom. How do you make a S-10 grip with no load over the rear?

Re: What's Better Fully Dun Up Vette Or Fully Dun Up Skyline GTR V-Spec2
coilover rear suspension.
coilover front. not difficult, but time consuming. think about most "muscle" cars, that don't have much rear load either. the suspension on a stock truck is designed to work better with a load. so you replace it with a suspension that works with the load of the truck (when empty) as opposed to working better when loaded. it's not that difficult |

OK fly,
Give me a link or two for one of these beasts? You know about them more than I, so I would not know where to start looking for a 350 powered S-10, that can out corner, and brake a GTR. The truck sounds very impressive, to say the least. You still can't pick up your parents at the airport in it. And it still going to be pretty loud, but I will bite

Re: What's Better Fully Dun Up Vette Or Fully Dun Up Skyline GTR V-Spec2
if i browsed truck forums more, i'd find some.
it wouldn't be hard to do that with a syclone or typhoon... they're 13 second trucks stock (turbo v6)... but i've seen quite a few trucks that can, and do, handle and stop well, easily in your range... i'll see if i can find some specifics, but i do know that i've seen these trucks before |
