    hehehehe *GH, mas mura ang sa cefiro diba?

    regarding the tail happy handling, maybe it could be solved by bringing the engine nearer the cockpit. para ma neutralize ang weight distribution kahit papano.

    sir BS, epoxy resin po ba yung ginamit nyo sa pag gawa ng body? locally made din po ba ang lambo door kit? OEM pieces ba yung mga headlights and tail lights?

    yung fiberglass car from pinoy boats even uses V8 chevrolet LS1 daw not sure if it was pushed through though.

    kung hindi V6 or V8, pwede siguro mitsubishi 4G63 o Honda K20 ang ilagay

    "the inline-4 that could"

    An SR20DET would be a much better base for turbocharging... but that wouldn involve re-engineering the rear end for the engine...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    V6s... y'know, the Mitsubishi FTO V6 is rather small (2 liters only) and light... yet develops around 200 hp. Not too expensive, from what I've heard from the Mitsubishi boys... and it'll give your car the proper sound for a sports car.

    Gawa ka na ng BAR Mark II, tapos mag-chip-in kami dito for a bigger engine... hehehe...

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yeah but it would give the car too much torque that would just end up spinning/smoking the tires. This car actually needs more weight to give the tires more bite.

    good idea yan! tapos i-advertise as kit car. dito muna sa pinas. tapos mag sponsor ng event ang tsikot para mag-time attack people who own one.

    Considering that their other options are the PTCC, which can cost over a million pesos just to get a competitive car... and Tuason's Formula Ford program (should cost 1.8 million pesos)... getting one of these, using proven and easily upgradeable Honda parts, should be very enticing for some people.

    And the racing series can act as a development and test bed for modifications to the chassis, suspension and other parts that can go into a road-car program.

    Why not just make it open to all "kit-car" types and just handicap the cars based on weight to displacement/horsepower ratio?

    No forced induction allowed to keep costs of the cars down.

    I can just see it, Cavite special jeeps on a race track.

    it was long before appreciated. it's more on the looks department and some on the performance department kaya kuntento na sila sa looks, kaya performance na lang habol nila para it can live with the way it looks

    *bar, maraming nakaka-appreciate ng project mo. hindi lang nagco-coment. lurker mostly like myself. but i showed the pics around and more than positive ang reactions- mga puti to ah. criticism doesn't imply negativity at all times. sometimes they need more to be "fully" satisfied otherwise they would've immediately recognise the potential. parte ng trabaho ko to convince and get paid for it as a bonus. thumbs up sa iyo, turbo, and ehnrico for stunning display of craftmanship.

    sidenote lang *bar, bagay talaga yung any V6 or bmw V12 (5L?) ni turbo to match the sleak appearance of your stunner. yung personal garage project na "joss supercar" is at least a V8. yun lang.

    suggestion ko lang, dapat di to ibenta ng body only (at ikabit sa mga existing chassis.) no offense ha! para kasi di magalaw ang "sport vehicle project" image.
