The intake in my brother's car is made out of aluminium dryer pipe, hockey tape, half of a speaker port and hose clamps. Oh, and an adapter to fit the TB.

hmt engine mounts, I thought everyone on here rocked these ;)
catch can out of a soup can, and sprinkler system drain valve
duct tape on last years winter beater(79 k5) as the battery hold down
intake on buddies saturn made out of whatever we found in my tool box, I think it was two peices from two different stock intakes, a few couplers and an extra cone filter I had actually worked pretty good.
e85 for octane boost, I know its automotive but its not meant for my car, 85% ethanol 97octane and cheaper than regular gas ;)
Homemade backseat brace did'nt do ---- made it out of a steel rod and welded it in, that was a bad idea
I know theres more I'll have to go look at my car

dryer vents/tubing as intake piping.

zip ties as screws.

t-shirt as seat cover.

bandage gauze to fix a torn axle boot.

Suzuki Vitara (sidekick/tracker/escudo) modified offroad truck. 35" tall and 12.5" wide tires. This is a snow driving setup where the power of a turbocharged engine is very useful unlike the rock crawling setups where it's all about the torque at 500rpm. When I get onto a glacier it's usually just flat out for as long as the coolant temperatures allow it. It is very hard on the engine to drive in snow, even though the ambient air is cold the speeds involved are usually not so great (60-70mph max) and therefore cooling is limited.

any vids of your suzuki, thats sounds pretty sick, I'd like to see a vid or pictures, do you run the stock engine in it?
