v8 mustang+nos, one bottle.

no, make it two.

Gutted 80s Monte Carlo with a small block can run 9:90 for less than 10k

I am guessing the cheapest way is a 3rd gen comaro with a built carbed 350

470hp N/A and gutted weight of about 2700lbs

Ive rode in one, it was a dedicated track car. I think it was doing 6.8 in the 1/8th mile at high elevation in the summer.

The Ford modular handles nitrous pretty well.

Lincoln town car with 4.10 gears and nitrous runs 12's. Go with a sn95 and you'll reach 10s a lot easier.

Remove everything not essential to the goal, using a sawzall where necessary.

Slicks and skinnies

Turbo and or Nitrous

>>13922502
You're forgetting a new 10 bolt for every pass.

Foxbody mustang + rear end gears + tires + heads, intake manifold, and straight pipe. Subframe connectors. NOS.

>>13922224
10 seconds is not that hard, but it aint going to be cheap. For one thing, if you run in the 10's, you need a roll cage at almost every drag strip in the country. You'll also need significant chassis and drivetrain improvements.

My way? Fox body Mustang with a stroked Windsor, aluminum port matched heads, high compression, shit tons of nitrous in a wet kit, built AOD, 4.10 geared 8.8 rear, subframe connectors, boxed control arms, 90/10 shocks, 10 inch slicks, caged, aluminum driveshaft...

That should be good for low 10's, possibly high 9's all day, every day.

>>13922224
Depends on your spending total.

Personally, getting a cheap car isn't hard.
> Foxbody Mustang
> Miata
> turdgen Camaro

Then buy the right engine for it.
> 302
> LS1
> 2JZ
>RB26

Or if you have the funds and want a car that had an idea engine, buy an 03-04 Cobra or a 98-02 Z28 or Trans Am.

Easy peasy.

>>13922224
2jz prius.


someone make this happen

>>13923018
Fuck that. LS1 Prius.

>>13923003
I'm scared to think what it takes to turn a Miata into a drag car. I'm not talking about the loss of handling when you put an LS1 in it, but the wheel hop - it's terrible in these cars. What do you do, weld the diff?

>>13923049
tub and put a ford 9in rear end in it


also put about 250lbs of ballast in the nose and a seriously wheelie bar because that thing is going to nose up like a goddamn cigar boat

>>13923049
9" solid rear axel
Diff girdle
Lowering springs
Stiffer dampers/struts
Poly bushings
Upgraded ball joints
Upgraded end links
Bumpsteer kit

>>13923060
>>13923072
Also, yes, wheelie bars.

S14 coupe ~4500
Stick big tires in the rear. (Cost up to you)

Rb25 + trans ~3200 installed (including solid driveshaft and mounts)

Haltech or comparable mngmnt system ~1200 new (800 used)

Garrett 3582r ~1100
External wastegate and flange ~175
T3 manifold flange ~25 bucks?
6 injectors of your choice ~ 600-1000 depending on your decision.

So around 12 grand and you would have a 10 second capable car that is relatively sturdy at that. You could probably buy a set up similar to this for 8 from someone thats getting out of the scene.


Ive seen Marcos from sr20 garage run a 10.1 with his sr powered s14 using a 3076r.

I run a 3582r on my SR, but I stay under 30lbs because my map sensor hates me, and so does my transmission.

ITT people don't understand that you have to have a differential, transmission, cvs/axles, gears, etc strong enough to handle running slicks on a rubbered in drag strip.

>implying most people snap their r200 differentials.

Hence the rb swap.
You get the rb trans. Notice I didnt recommend my personal setup.
In retrospect the rb would have been the better and cheaper route.

>>13923085
Some of us do.

Power is useless if you can't put it down and make it hook.

I like that you call me senpai even though I'm known for my Terminator Cobra.

But, just to toss in a little tid-bit of coinkydink. I also drive a 2006 Mazdaspeed 6. Turbo, AWD, 6 speed, and absolutely delicious.

lol, There we go.

Well in aus, XR6 turbo with a few mods and weigh reduction could make 10s
Maybe even xr6 turbo engine into a older falcon?

One pass only though - you need a cage for anything bellow 11:50 iirc, and the motor will blow up.

If you want repeated 10 sec. passes, take that Fairmont, add a Chev truck 5.3 (LQ4 iirc), add a junkyard turbo, and isntead of an intercooler, reduce intake temps with even more nitrous. Build a 4L80 to match that power, and maybe spend some money on rear suspension and a cage.

Chevette roller, Ford 8.8 rear end, cadillac 472 or 500engine and th400. Remove firewall and front seats, set the engine back as far as possible, cover it with a van box, extend the controls and drive from the back seat.

Gears, forged pistons, cam, big carb, spray. And a hot HEI

Foxbody Mustang. There's infinite speed parts for them, they're cheap, and stripping the car to make it lighter doesn't cost anything + might make it look better.

>>13926061
Why use a Cadillac engine, without a stroker crank to take advantage of the extra cubes that block can make stock? Might as well use a Chevy big block instead - it might actually be cheaper.

I saw a 10.90 Plymouth Scamp on craigslist for $9500 last year with a perfect body and interior, if you didn't care about how a car looked you could do it for $5k no question. IIRC Car Craft magazine built a 10 sec El Camino for under $3k years ago. If I was going to build one I would buy a failed/unfinished drag car project for $2k and put a cheap drivetrain in it with a 250 shot. Fox body is a good option but I think a Dart/Valiant/Scamp or a 4 door or 73+ Nova/Ventura/Apollo would be even cheaper

>>13922497
g-body GM's are great because they have no muscle car nostalgia or boomer tax

If me and my dad didn't have to spent 4K on a new motor for the nova we would have bought a mid 11 sec car for 8.4K. Throw a bottle on it and we would be easily in the 10s.

>>13923130
Holy shit there are still people rick rolling on the internet? are you using aol too?

>>13922224

Option 1:
C4 Corvette or 3rd Gen Camaro
350 with turbo 400 (manual will sadly explode)
Summit racing headers and open exhaust
Eledbrock intake and carb
Diamon racing wheels with the biggest DOT drags i can fit in the fenders
Strip out all the weight you can

Option 2:
Fox-body Rustang
302 with 5 speed
AFR heads, Holley 650
Summit racing headers and cherry bombs
Again, biggest drag radials i can fit under the fenders

Option 3 (for the lulz)
Jaguar XJS
5.3 V12
NOS

Car cuts 1.5xs which is insane considering the rear end

it could be done cheaper I bet

>>13929425
Mopar A-bodies are going up ip price, the Dart/Valiant/Scamp would probably be more expensive than the GM's you mentioned.

>>13923130
Jokes on you. I memorised the URL when I was cruising bungie.net

>>13922224
BA XR6T with the 4-speed auto: $6k
Boost related gear: $3k
275/40R17 MT: $1k
Strip it out, run a 10, get kicked out, put everything back in and go do skidz with 3 people in the back at KFC

Turbo Charged Skyline remove weight increase turbo.
