3 Cyl. Inside : current

// November 14th, 2008 // Mission Impossible : IP33/MP1

I used to document this project here but since I have this new blog, I think it would be better documented here, where I can manage it more effectively.

Basically for those who do not know, I am transforming a cheap econobox into a full fledged race car. The vehicle of choice is a Geo Metro, they are cheap, parts are readily available, and most importantly they are lightweight.

I first started using the Geo in Dexterities, and then started entry level circuit racing at Dover Raceway in Jamaica. I am now turning the car into an all out track car.

here are the specs so far:

engine:

IHI RHB5 Turbo VJ11 spec

customised stock exhaust manifold

Custom 3 core radiator

Port and polished cylinder head with handlapped valves

current suspension:

Eibach Progressive lowering springs

KYB GR2 Shocks

Integra Type R front rotors with swift gti calipers

swift hubs (bigger bearing)

big swaybars est. 22mm rear

stock drum brakes on back

interior:
