if you actually do that to your car....going to look like the ultimate tool mobile. How about keeping that money, or better, upgrade the engine. Stancing cars is so dumb. I truly dont understand this fad

intake and exhaust is already done, not much you can really do with the 3.0L v6 that they put in em. and stanced cars=Jizz in my pants.

I could give a fuck less about what other people think, if i like it, i dont give a fuck.

bore, turbo, ecu, i can think of hundreds of things you could do... just because it doesn't look like it can be done underhood doesn't mean it can't. just gotta get creative, maybe move a couple things around to fit a couple other things. just because the battery/alternator/whatever is where it is underhood doesn't mean that's where it has to stay. so long as you rearrange things properly, it will all still work the same.

give it some thought. not saying don't stance it, as I don't mind the look of a stanced car. what i am saying is that you could make a killer sleeper if you really wanted to spend money underhood.

haha

cost of stancing a car- depending on wheels and coils or bags anywhere from 1k to 5k with a set of badass wheels

cost of turboing a car that is not a popular platform with no available kits lets see

custom manifold and exhuast
turbo
all turbo necessities
fueling
clutch and flywheel
standalone ecu
and paying someone to do all this work and figure out and build a reliable setup

you would be lucky if you could get it done for under 11 grand

and you would still have a prototype style setup with no proven reliablilty

and thats not even building the motor- sleeves, rods and pistons, reworking the head- on a car not normally worked on- at least another 3k

idiots the lot of you- fucking idiots

no ecu upgrades for that engine, making turboing a pain in the ass with the stock computer, same goes for boreing, although, iy would be quite interesting to see if it would be possible to do a drivetrain swap with a mazdaspeed mazda 6, then it would become AWD

i never said it was economical. not once. and i know all that's necessary, so don't try to put me down while acting smart.

i was just saying that anything is possible, as opposed to the claim that not much can be done to the v6 he's got. have a good time why don't you.

don't call me an idiot for having some fun imagination. and besides, budgeting for that sort of thing over a period of time is perfectly realistic if you're willing to take enough time. my cousin and i have a 5-10 year project on the go, in which we're completely overhauling the 396 on our 1965 stingray, with a twin turbo end result. all work in-house, all trials in-house. /claim

and its not as easy as at first glance to do that drivetrain swap, but i had little confidence in it.

haha, seriously a lot goes into doing up a motor proper, and unless its something thats commonly built its not like theres an aftermarket already established, AND its not like its an old carbed small block chevy or something, these modern engines have a little more going on that you need to be aware of, which increases costs.

This is true. There are many more electronic systems in new cars, but these can be worked on too if you can source some of the electronic tools as well. For my car (2000 LR P38A) I was able to download the RAVE mechanics manual, and source a copy of the diagnostic and reprogramming system from a shop. Now I can also do most of the electric stuff at home as well. I took out the air suspension system a while ago and replaced it with coils. Took some time to reprogram the BeCM so that it was no longer looking for the electronic air suspension system, but once that was fixed it worked like a charm. Height sensors still provide feedback, but they're no longer connected to the compressor system. I'll post pics soon when It's not shitty and raining outside.

My whip up until a month ago. She had to much rust and wasnt worth the money. it makes me really sad because i had the spacers and longer lugs but never bothered to put them on because i knew i would never drive it again.
