    Sounds so simple hm? Shows how much thought you actually put in to things.


    Screw it, why not just take your uni-body Grand Prix and weld it straight onto the frame for something similar to this.



    Because thats about the most awesome thing I can imagine. That thing would out handle any STi or Evo. Or you can just cut strips of your floorpan out so the frame of your POS car takes up all the room where your feet go. Thats okay though, who needs leg room?

    Alright comparing a RWD converted car to an sti or an evo is retarded, 2nd of all if doing a full chassis Id run the rails as close to the doors as possible more like a cage then right down the middle obviously, 3rd hmm 10 years of being on a GP forum you seem pretty ignorant.

    Have no idea what you pointing out besides bashing what we BOTH said was already done. RWD conversions Check LS4 swap Check. maybe you need some schooling considering I myself have a diesel certificate, have been working on nothing but electronic radar equipment for the last 9 months and yeah I can weld aluminum and run a plasma cutter so if you think for a second I dont have the capacity to do a conversion you my friend are way out in left field. The limiting factor here is as always money. Oh and if you wanna see some killer conversions check out ls1tech.com and look in the conversions forum maybe you'd learn a thing or 2

    That one is still being built, he's almost done I think, just lots of little stuff.

    The guy I just bought my 3100 from does RWD conversions all the time. He does dirt track races. He takes a '80s Monte Carlo, takes the race-wrecked body off, and puts a clean '94-99 body on the chassis.

    When I went over there yesterday to pick up my motor, I noticed this '95 Monte sitting on a trailer. The closer I looked at it, the more I realized that the engine was sitting longways not sideways. This guy says he does this to all his race cars because the '80 Monte bodies are getting too rare.

    What you could do is take a '80s Monte Carlo/Cutlass/Grand Prix, take the body off, and put the body of your GP on it. It might take a little trimming of the fenders, but it would look cool!
