details (TT351W project? )

Actually....hoping to find a 96-97 Tbird. Top end of the motor is much easier to work with... Stock heads will accept aftermarket (or even later model ford OEM - 15hp) cams where as mine won't.. can bolt on a later model OEM ford intake, pick up upwards of 17rwhp....for $100 or so.

And the rust that's creeping into my 94 worries me. Don't want to put a bunch of money into a car that won't hold together for 5-10 years.

Find myself a good 96-97 to work with...and then..
Renegade racing PnP heads, Big stainless Valves, the works - $2200
Kooks 3/4 length headers - $650
OEM 99+ ford intake - $100 used
Comp Cam custom grinds - $650
2.5" dual exhaust dumped mid-body - $400?
Ford Racing 3:73 Ring and Pinion, TracLoc...all stuffed into an 8.8" - $500ish?
PI Stallion 3200RPM stall convertor - $800
Metal Matrix Alum. Driveshaft - $400
17x9 Cobra R Replica wheels/Tires - $1400
13" Drilled/Slotted rotors and PBR Cobra Calipers - $450
ADDCO 1 3/8 Competition Sway Bars - $275
Koni Sport Adjustable Shocks - $515
MN12 Performance Poly Bushings - entire car - $425

= mid 13 second car that'll handle like mad.....

I need another job (or six)

Finish paying off this one, not get in an accident, keep it from rusting away, and giving it some more mods, mainly the b16 manifold and exhaust. This car IS the project.

IF everything works out good:

EJ22T Block stroked to 2.7 liters
Port&Polished Head w/ JUN Cams
APS DR65 Turbo or larger...possible T66 if money situation REALLY works out
Wet N2O system
Wilwood Brakes
Tein Suspension or JIC
Carbon Doors w/ Flex-a-lite windows
Perrin Front & Rear Swaybars
STi Motormounts
Bushing Kit
GT Spec Headers

Not all of the above will happen, but I'm hoping for at least 2/3's to be doable in the "offseason"

not hit a sign
dr650's
bigger injectors
tranny in working order
fireman exhaust
FMIC

I have a plan on building a winter car. More of a learning experience than anythign else. I wanna do something crazy(no mitch, not turbo the vigor) On CWStuning.com they have a Ford Festiva with a b6t 1.6 turbo out of a mazda 323gtx. They said they can supply anyone else interested with parts/info for reasonable prices. Says on there that if the project is done right ull have a mid 14 second car (w/o an ass-load of mods)that still gets 30-35 mpg. I am trying to convince my dad to let me buy a car, then I am working on Garage space. My neighbor(I dunno ifany of you moorhead graduates remember him, but its Mr. Craigness, Ex-Gym teacher) has WAY mroe than enough room but his garage is full of shit. I'll see if I clean it out for him, if hell let me store/work on a car there. Right next door, that would be Perfect. If anyone has any Ideas for an easy swap into a car for less than 1500 bucks let me know.

Gosh diddly darn your plum stupid. You have one less, and your a manual. We never did a roll. Fuck, if I had a V8, ohhhh weee, that would be nice.

Maybe if Hyundai made a V8 IT MIGHT make break the 200 crank horsepower mark

In all honesty though, it is a NICE looking car.....I just wish it had more horsepower, is there any rumor of Hyundai bringing a higher horsepower version of the Tiburon to the states anytime soon? I thought I read something about it in some other forum. Tough to tell if it might be "vaporware" or if it will be real.
