But joel, the rules were that it needed to start out life non-turbo...sorry.
-
thats right...since he started w/ such a POS to begin with, we bent the rules, I forgot.
-
he still has to stay under $1500 though...which he won't be able to I don't think.

i have a 94 sho that cost me total of 1250, can i enter that?
-
it costs less than 1500!
-
the rules were posted somewhere at the beginning of this thread (I'm too lazy to look them up myself), but if it meets that criteria I can't see why it wouldn't be allowed.

Do you have less than 1500.00 getting it to where it is now? Did you buy it before or after the challenge was made. The challenge was supposed to be directed towards not so fast cars or dare I say "ringers" that a person could pick up for el cheapo to enter the contest with. Putting or allowing ringers only takes away from the fun that this was supposed to create. Otherwise I've got a bud that owns a awd dsm that only paid 1200.00 for that would clean up if that's the criteria allowed.

i think the rules shouldve been something like the car cant cost more than $500 and then you get to spend 1k after that on mods. then something like each mod cant cost more than 100 bucks. that way itd be more of an actual 'junkyard' tournament. just my opinion.

correct me if I'm wrong, but the na DSM motor isn't a 4G63 is it? Will the turbo parts just swap over? I don't know, I'm not a DSM guy.cams are different and you gotta baby it. you really cant boost past 12 pounds. IDK, nick kinda talked me through this.
