I have an 87 sport that i completely gutted. It has the stock 6-port with nothing on it but a RB header which goes into a power pulse muffler (sounds great, not too loud) a 48 dcoe weber on a port matched RB upper intake manifold and stock lower with the port actuators and sleeves removed. With the car at 2320 pounds(including me) and running 20x8 inch E/T slicks the car ran a 14.60 with a 1.9 sec 60 foot mark. Not bad for a total cost of around $2000 The car has 192000 miles on it and roughly 150 horsepower at the wheels.

I plan on taking more weight out and doing some power mods so ill keep you up to date. Your input and advice is greatly apprieciated.

 

Dude post pics of the interior, cuz 2300 including you is ******* awesome!!! You must not have **** in that car and be a waif!!!!! Thats a great 60 ft, i gotta see how you have your interior done.

 

yea man i wanna see some pics to. my old 86 base went 14.60 with a 2.0 60 fter(street tires) with just intake,exhaust,wiried ports

Knight1976, Ill try to post pics but here's a description:

the dash is just the gauge pod the floor is stripped to the metal (no sound crap) the speaker pods have been cut out and all interior stuff is gone. the front and rear bumper supports are gone the tow hooks and windshield wipers too, but i still have a passenger seat. I only weigh 135

 

what is a wired port?

 

mattrx7n/a sounds pretty thorough send me some pics of that bad boy!!!!! And 135 is on the light side (this coming from a 220 lb man) lol

 

The auxillary ports(ie: 5th & 6th ports) wired to stay open all the time. Makes you lose a little low end but if they are not functioning correctly due to not enough backpressure then its an alright mod.

 

Damn...nuf said.

 

opps sorry for the mutiple post. and wired ports is what ryde or die sayed

 

I got all the **** interior out of my car too. It was that burgandy ****. I wanted to puke every time I saw that color.

 

Hey, you should sign up for the Grassroots Motorsports $2003 challenge. You can enter the car if you spent $2003 or less on the project including the car. I'm not sure what you can win, but it sounds like fun.

 

I was gonna try to keep this car N/A but its too slow so im gonna put a series 5 turbo on it. Im hoping for 230 hp which will put me it the mid 12 second range. Ive completed the kit but im still waiting for the turbo to get here. I took out the headlight motors and cut a lot of metal out of the front took some other stuff out too, so im gonna weigh it tomarrow (i also got a fuel cell for it, for free) I dont have a camera so still tryin to get some pics up. I will hopefully get the turbo on this weekend! Ill keep you all informed

 

Hey Snerd I added up total cost of car and parts including turbo and came out to $1875 so I have some room for more upgrades. Heheh

(I get so much cool stuff for free) : turbo, intercooler, electric fan, intake piping, fuel cell, muffler, eibach coil overs........ and i only paid $20 bucks for the header
Im a cheap bastard lol

 

Okay how does that work? Like mattrx7N/A said .. he got alot of stuff for free. get a sponsor and in theroy everything could be free with 60k into the car. there has gotta be some kind of rules. I only payed $750 for my N/A ... I want to join this thing ...

 

I didnt get my car weighed today but soon prolly tomorrow. Still waiting on friggin turbo.

 

How can they prove you dont have more than 2003$ in your car?

 

I dont know (its the honor system) lol!

 

receipts and stuff. there is a loophole because you can sell parts for money and it doesn't count towards your $2003. so like if you had an rx-7 with a blown engine and sold the block for $250 or whatever, you'd actually have $2253 to spend. Get it?

 

Hmmm, interesting.....

In a couple hours im gonna weigh my car, after I take out passenger seat and clean the trash out lol.

 

wiegh that bitch!!! we want to see the results and a pic!!!!!!! dont leave us hanging man.......

 

ok ok ill go soon but still cant find cables to friends camera so pics will have to wait.

 

Ok I weighed it: The car by itself with 3/4 full tank of gas
weighs........2145! So my hard work is paying off.

One of these days ill put the 3 gallon fuel cell and my race doors on it and weigh it again.

 

so you're keeping the 6port engine and are gonna turbo that? can't wait to hear how that works out for ya. i'm planning on doing the same one day. unless i end up buying a T2. who knows.
