You won lotto, and had to spend it on an E Series. How would
Posted: March 22nd, 2009, 7:29 pmBasicly i has too much time and thought to hard, an need to vent this idea.
My idea would be a American Style Pro touring first gen E-Series.
Grab any old EA-D, doesn't matter what really, a shell is all thats needed. Then go find a suitable Fg Xr6t. Using the Fg because of the front mount steering rack and lighter compoentry.
Rip the engine out of the Xr6t, send it to nispro and tell them to send it back with 700kw. While thats happening, remove the E-Series floor plan and cut and shut the Fg floor under the boxcar body (modify the engine mounts etc to move the engine back around 100mm). Seem weld every thing, and add a 6point roll cage. Fix up the body, add a genuine V8 supercar kit (but with a T wing), and build a alloy/carbonfiber full length undertray. Will also need to be tubbed both ends.
Beef up the suspention with coilovers and all the usual stuff, aswell as some 8 pot brake on the front, 6 on the rear. Mosnter size (Rims will be 19-20in) Shove a V8 supercar 6speed sequential box in the car and rebuild the diff with a 2 way LSD. Hopefully the engine will be back, and I would have requested a custom twin TB intergrated water-air intercooler manifold, with a dry ice box in the boot to cool the water down.
For the interior keep the origial dash and door trims, but get the lot recovered in blood red leather an suede (Paint the plastics in glossy black) A motec dash will find its way in there, as will 4 recaro buckets, red of course, with 5 point harnesses on all 4.
Then there will be things like a race style fuel cell. Custom headlights, using BMW components (angel eyes projectors etc) behind a custom lense (so the projectors work properly). The rear lights will be circluar l.e.d's set in a EA unit. Between the lights will be a carbon boot panel.
The body will have amounts of carbonfiber in it, but will be mostly cleaned up standared, with pumped gaurds. Paint will be matte gunmetal gray.For the wheels 20 x 10 front 20 X 12 (or somthing like that) BBS stlye multi spokes, in raw unfineshed alloy.
I think thats all, oh yeah Clear indicators and Au repeaters. and a EB gt gear boot
Remember, you'll have millions.
