That's pretty wild.
What kind of times are you expecting?
Who put the tube frame together for you?
Can you estimate the finished weight?
What turbo?

Is this going to be a drag car?Seems like you have another one?Looks like a nice uncommon project.When will it be road worthy/track worthy?Looks good

we are going for 6's
we are doing it together (nelson performance pro & nrgtechracing)
the weight of the car will be 1800/2000 pounds top and close to 2000AWHP
the turbo is a custom GT55R we called FULL NELSON GT55R

yes this one will be only for straight line .
I have another one but is an full street 3000gt that already did 9.62@152 last year with a really bad tuner , 1348AWHP just an couple weeks ago , 10.43@149 on pump ,800 AWHP on pump and now we are puting a roll cage in it so i can get more than one pass at the track... i'm going to the track with the street one the end of this month and go for an really low 8 sec pass.

there's the street car engine bay...

Looking good Nelson, This car is nuts, I took a couple of pics of your "street car" a while back, I gotta go by Nrg tommorw and pick up some parts

I am not the biggest VR4 guy but is that an auto tranny? Very nice tube car.

yes , we were thinking to go straight with the 2 speed powerglide tranny with an 3rd member (AWD setup) .but then i though why not trying what we have first!!!!and that's what we did, stock engine position and our built AWD tranny and hope for the best before we going with the powerglide v-drive setup (still AWD), i strongly believe that we can go low 7's with that tranny...

nice that looks good
