Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

holy ----! :o me and my wife talk about getting a dune buggy when we move back to indiana. hummm...i need something like this!

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

how much you think this thing weighs? i meen a built subaru 2.5 with turbonetics turbo, pushing 400 hp...
i wounder what it does in the 1/4 mile :P

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

and i bet it weighs only about 1500lbs to include the driver...its nothing but a cage and a motor. :o

edit
i just saw on somewhere on the internet with a 13b turbocharged rotary engine on it...dam, i wish i could find it!

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

the power is great but i see those things going down the street and they look dorky as hell. just my personal taste. if i had 25k i'd buy a rsx type s and boost it and type r conversion. that's stil a realy sweet motor though.

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

that rotary one was posted here on hmt last night, check this page and the next page, you'll find it.

it would be easy to do a rhd conversion on that buggy, you just have to move the steering wheel and the rod that goes to the steering ----.

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

i posted it...the rotary buggy, but i cant find it. and most people dont spend 25K on theres. I have seen plenty of buggies built very nicely for a decent cost. turbo vw motors, sand rails running 11sec in the sand "sand drags" for under $3,000.

you can buy a used buggy for anywhere between $600-$1000 then put $2,000 into one ------ screamin motor...you have a bad ass toy. ive seen them with anything from harly motors, to hybussa motors, to ones like above. most people settle for just a vw motor though. :-\


in michigan, silver lake to be exact -around the dunes, sand rails are a huge craze. and they should be, your right next to the ------ dunes.

Re:now this is what im talkin about
 

alot of ppl slap a turbo caddy northstar on the real bad ass buggys... wheelies all day long
