from the looks of it the ns car has more sponsors than we have traders on oh and the forum owner himself owns the car...
i didnt think the original post you were envisioning a car quite to that standard, more a backyard job lol
oh and Zelka what do you mean???
"but still HONDA POWERRRZZZZ (cos ED/EF didnt come vtak)"
ef8 ARE vtec they came out with a b16a in them from factory (not that you would be likely to have one donated for a club project though)
"ef8 ARE vtec they came out with a b16a in them from factory"
oops my extreme bad i did not know
im embarrassed
:shy:
but yeah whtteg i didn't envision anything that big hahaha thats for me when i have my own money lol but when u say backyard job i dont think you quite got it either hahaha i meant something along the lines of a civic or something with an appropriate engine swap some suspension and brake upgrade or something. a couple of mods that would make it trackable and competative. oh and of course weight reduction hehehe
i thought you ment a group of ozhonda members (whos day job they are professionals in automotive industry ) donating their time to make a race car on the cheap with parts begged, borrowed or whatever to make a car that could promote ozhonda on a small scale which with trial and error become compedative and gain sponsorship eventually?? maybe im wrong but to me that would be achievable if a car could be found and a fairly neutral but trustworthy member (a mod preferably) could supervise the car when being worked on and when stored between being worked on and races...Quote:

and whtteg they dont have to be pro's cos they're are so many ppl (me included) that can do things without being a mechanic....professionally at least lol.
and to be honest it was an idea that i shouldn't have control of as a mod as u sed should be in charge, or at least there, so exactly how it would be executed isnt up to me, but i just had an idea and decided to write it lol
ZOMG wot da??? Awesomeness... heheQuote:

Anyway what i mean is we can have weekly official polls for each and every facet of the car - from the model, colour, engine swap, bodykit, wheels, mods, etc. then if there are any graphic designers in the house, they can try to replicate/draw/model/render this beast! omg how cool would that be... :D
Anyway was just another random idea... LOL
And it will be a d-series! :thumbsup:Quote:
