I can't imagine that thing having to much power left with those huge tires. Leave it in Low-range I guess.

 

It should have a fair amount less weight though!

 

Less metal and less glass on the exterior. In the interior, there are no rear seats, no rear seatbelts, shorter headliner, etc. The rear doors would be gutted (hinges, latches, handles, paneling, window mechanisms, etc), and the rear driveshaft and exhaust would both be shortened. It's a bunch of little things, but all of that weight adds up. icon14.gif

Forgot to mention - the "hidden" winch in the front bumper is sweet! :headbang:

 

Whats funny is that (I think, if I remember correctly) the second row doors still open and function, they just have fixed windows.

 

The winch is something that I would deffinately try and do. It would be sweet to put a little "door" for it so it would be completely hidden behind the bumper.

Really! The builder must have had some small kids or something. :D

 

If anything, I suppose you could lengthen the front doors... but I would definitely take out the rears if I was building it for myself.

 

For the winch, I bet you could just give the rollers and internal bumper support a quick spray of black paint, and cut the hole a touch lower to keep the chrome strip across the top of the bumper, and you'd probably never see the winch even without a cover. :cool:

I like this Hatch, very clean and well done! I've always wanted one of those "Roo Bars" for my EA82.

you should buy that one from me, fix it, and make it fit yours...

 

what tires above are they I have forgotten?^

 

seems like they are 13" so yeah.

 

those are 15" special purchase wheels Zap had shipped from OZ. the tires I believe were the 27x9.50x15 SSRs...

I think it's just the pic, He auto-x's it and uses it on track day. Has a full stand alone engine management, it's very nicely done. As far as I know it has the stock rear suspension, the front has been modified with coilovers, and the rear is to come, but he hasn't gotten around to fitting them yet.

Glad my old sedan made it in this thread :). backwoodsboy owns it now in NY. Its got a rear wheel drive setup with a LSD rear and a HiPo EA81 that screams. Very cool car!

 

For the "new" version of that car check the classifieds for my coupe.
