i was talking with brian (pissedoffsol) today and he was saying a few members had asked what i've been up to lately..etc. well...since i've sold the ITR civic hatchback i've been working on another project which has turned out pretty well.
i purchased an 89 dodge colt gt with 100k miles on it and a 2.0L (4g63) swap. if anyone is familiar with these cars they'll remember that they came with a 1.6L version of the 4g63 called the 4g61 equipped with a small turbo and about 140whp. these cars also came with OEM front/rear disc brakes, a tighter steering rack (compared to stock colt gt/mitsu mirages), larger front sway bar and an OEM lip kit.
when i purchased mine, it was almost 100% stock besides the 2.0 motor swap which bolts right in...2.5inch downpipe, 3inch exhaust and manual boost controller. since then...i've spent the last year of my life spending every dollar i make (well not quite...but it feels like it sometimes) on the car.
as the car sits right now...its probably in the 280-290whp /300-310ft/tq range. here is a list of mods that i've done so far...and a few pics as well.
i've removed the heater core, ac...etc...and it should trap in the 112-114mph range as it sits. i've also ordered an alcohol injection kit which should give me another 30whp which should put the car in the 118-120mph range. however, i haven't run the car so take these figures lightly.
