Stevo172-RWD + Tools = Nutter

[dan.clio]

Some of you may know Stevo172-RWD has a project build in progress at the moment ...... a rear engined 172 Turbo :rasp:

Hes taking his time and will hopefully get things right first time.

All i know is he has some massive balls to be giving this a go.

Here's some sneaky pics for the time being (you will have to make do with the crappy quality)

Looks crazy, if all is successful then the next stage must be a twin engined 172? 4wd? One can only dream

 

[jamesp24]

[Peperami]

Nah too much weight ...... id say more boost and a decent diff

Or maybe throttle bodies enclosed in a custom inlet manfold linked to a turbo and supercharger ...... with Nitrous :evil:

Peado!! shes 15!

 

[midge]

how is it mounted? subframe in the rear? completely space framed?

 

[Batman]

i imagine getting the engine sitting in their is the easy bit its all the wiring and cooling and stuff that seems would be the hard part, depends how strong it is when its all put tofether aswell should be an oppurtunity for a good outcome

 

[GarethM]

crazy!

looks like a lot of work involved

good luck to him

I was considering putting my williams engine in the back of an old mini, and maybe a small 8psi boost if pheasable. I think if i do get around to it i would deffo beat your clio. Anyone wanna gimme a hand making it possible?

 

[Graham Gooch]

Hope you plan to either weight up the front or have some good suspension to put on lol.

Car will handle silly. Good fun though.
