rwd...yes another thread, new option? Options

[playr158]

Ok, so i'm the crazy mod whore. I like things that waste money and are more than unfeasible.

practical discussion:

for a RWD setup. who has experience with IS300s.
I have been thinking that their rear end might jus work.
$250 for a cross memeber
$300 for a diff
$100 for a drive shaft
then you need control arms, ect. but you get a rear end brand new for lets say under a grand including everything
size/dimensions/shape issues?

they have the toyota typical 3-point strut hats so they potentially up top could slide right in (as if that was a major obstacle )

discuss...

nobody cares about a incomplete version of a car 4 years old that doesn't exist any more.... get over it old fart

Dan, people are giving you so much crap because you've been doing nothing but talking about this. I remember talking to you 4yrs ago about this same topic, and you told me "just wait, in 2yrs it will be done". Here we are 4yrs later with another thread full of unrealistic plans and zero progress.

If you really DO plan on building a rwd celica (of any hp), then START WRENCHING! So far Ive seen you spend about 500bucks on that curren front end, and thats about it. You have huge goals (rwd+500hp), yet you try to nickle and dime a rear end. This is starting to remind me of all those posts Mac used to make back in the day about the super amazing celica he was going to have because the typical swap sucks so much. Nothing ever came of that either.

I expect weekly updates, with pics from now on!
