AK-Z Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I've been thinking of building a full chassis from scratch (another one) and was wondering, what car is readily available that I can scavenge suspension pieces or whole sub frame off of, or if there were packages available.

MJLamberson Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 Build a GTM supercar! to bad the kit is like 20Gs but hey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerryb Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 What kind of kit car? If your considering a Locost then a common US donar car is the S10. In fact there is a site dedicated to this... www.stalkerv6.com I plan on starting a Locost build next year and have been doing alot of research. One of the best sites is http://www.locostusa.com/forums/index.php It will give you a million ideas! The Locost may not be as sexy as a GTM but if your careful you can buid one from scratch for less than 10K that will spank most others. Im thinking of building a hayabusa powered version but am not sure that my build talent is up to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240hoke Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 mustang 5.0 for a cheaper build and a corvette C5 for a nicer kit. That what factory five uses and you can find both of those cars at reasonable prices and use the engines / suspensions out of both of them. The gtm uses ALOT of the c5 stuff, including the side mirrors. Im thinking about building a gtm or another kit car this coming summer, I dunno if it will work out though.

MJLamberson Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I guess that rules out the GTM then, it kinda is extreme, when put together correctly it beets or matches the Enzo in ever competition, 0-60 0-100, lateral G's, 1/4 mile... the works.
