[QUOTE="bigboystoys, post: 149621, member: 5287"] actually it's not really a big project... let me get a bit into the details... before we can start thinking bout building it, we'll need a few core things... namely the engine and wheels, after that we'll worry bout cutting and welding up the frame and drop in the engine, suspension, drivetrain, steering i actually have some dimensions and calculations on my mind already on the wheelbase, tracks, suspension points and drivetrain ratios what is my biggest headache is to put together all of it with that, we need 1. a workshop (or just a big empty room will do) 2. some guys that are kind enough to let us use their welding, milling, lathe machines ( there will be a lot of custom machining to do) 3. a few resourceful guys to help source for cheap parts (kancil half-shafts, all types of bearings, some motorcycle parts like calipers/disc/sprockets) 4. guys that know where are the cheapest places to splining, heat-treating (optional) i know it sound like a herculean task, but think about it, it's the only way and also the cheapest way to build something that ALL you ever wanted; it'll be light and very powerful, very nimble the closest you can get to driving a Formula BMW or Formula Asia or Formula Nippon (let's leave F1 out, it's way above everything else) i can assure you, it'll do 0-100 in less than 4 secs, it'll outbrake any of our cars definitely outdrift any of our cars fun ?? no ??
