|  If I were gonna do a sleeper, this would be it...
for some strange reason, I've always loved these!! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW
Not the regular version, but I've always loved this one...the person that owns this car doesn't stay too far from me. I might check it out, especially for the price.

That was my first car!!!
I had a 1987 Maz-dog 323. That thing was a beast. I treated it so bad and it never gave me any problems. The only maintenance it ever saw was oil changes.

Stick that GTX drivetrain into a Festiva, and you've got a car that'll kick almost any others ass, and still get *****in gas mileage.

you want a sleeper. turbo sprint motor in a metro?
how about a cadallac cimeron with a 4.9?
4AGE powered tercel
pea green chevelle station wagon with a 502 ramjet.
5.0 powered volvos and miatas.
there's just something special about a sleeper. | |

RB26DETT powered Datsun 280ZX.
Twin Turbos on a Volkswagen Passat W8
Twin Turbo Toyota Camry (1997-2001) with a swap to the newer 3.3L engine VVT-I.
Twin Turbos on a Honda powered Saturn Vue.
ION Sedan with a SAAB Viggen (250+ HP) engine.
Pontiac GXP with a fully built S/C engine, and a regular set of emblems.
A well built V8 in a Ford Crown Vic.
A Honda Civic with what really matters in those cars... A TURBO.
Yeah, I'm kinda crazy. I want a badass sleeper so when I smoke a ricer boy, he cries to his mom.

| yeah. i'm really going back and forth on doing that very project, since a strait, rust free two door tercel with 2 year old paint landed in my lap. i can't decide if i want to sell it ofr play with it.
i was driving it for a while but it's a tired old 60 hp grocery getter. and now that i got my maintenece job, i live on property... i don't friggin' need a car.
you wanna buy a tercel rolling chassis.
and i forgot to make a joke about skittle and sleeper in the same sentence... oh well. | |

Actually Malice, you have the perfect sleeper already. I would love to put some power to a SW2 or even an SL2. How dumb you feel in your 30k sports car if you got smoked by a saturn wagon?

my wagon is to "stickered up" to be a sleeper.
if i ever get the L67 swap finished, i'm going to take off the stripes, deep tint the windows and put a set of factory sawtooth's on. then we'll be in buissness. | |
