Hey guys

just wanted to put feelers out and see if there were any motors people were willing to party with fairly cheaply but it needs to be a working motor. I think i may have myself a basic body and gearbox but no motor and i wanna make this into a race car for my motorkhana and khanacross...

but just seeing at this stage... Nehelp would be appreciated!

im not sure to many people want to party with motors.....is this like a fetish thing?:P

on a more serious note......what body and gear box do u have?......really getting into this khana stuff arent you.

Im so RARING to go with this race stuff... im loving it! and im not sure bout the stats on the body and gear box... but i know IF i get it, its set up like a baja with larger bak wheels and shortened bonnet and is in ok condition.. interior a bit rough but apart from that got the OK from a good friend! Will try and get the stats but i guess askin around to see wat motors are available in general... knowing nething at the moment is beta than knowing nuttin!

So... ANY MOTORS cheap... people are willing to sell ???

just to peeve u off....i have a 1600 twin port engine but u cant have it!:P ....PS: come into chat

got a 1600 twin port just sitting here it was running when i pulled it out but was a bit tired, kinda half in bits at moment down to long motor, dizzy stuffed, no clutch , no gen and carby off just sitting out back under tarp, not sure wot worth. carby good no tin

Might get more response in Buying/ Selling?

I have a few 1200's, but I think you would want a little more power..

I think it's faily difficule to successfully say the words "cheap" and "racing" in the same sentence unless you are talking about a foot race.

009 Dissy
Generator

For motorkhanas a 1600 should do you to a tee. You can always chuck on a really small turbo later to get you some boost out from between the cones

Make sure you check out the racers forum. We have no girls in there currently

Find a sponsor, buy something with guts
and become like, Pinky Tuscadero.

Why don't you ask $2 cheapie and Lil_dub
to become a girl speed team? Between you,
you'd be a force to be reckoned with!

Well yes i think a 1600 should do me just fine for the moment. Im really only wanting to do this as a hobby i.e the 'CHEAPNESS' of things is put in bcos a hobby isn't suppose to cost ya your entire savings! :P tho some of us have experienced this im sure! hehehehe

JAY: The 1600cc should b great... ty very much for the pics! I should b able to find out in the next couple of days how much it would cost me to get it up here... so now i guess it all hangs on that!

And Cam... you'll have a chick on that racer's forum b4 you know it

I dont see any reason why chicks can't do this stuff...
With the new addition to the family which should be home in a couple weeks and gettin worked on, I'll just take my time and try to do as much myself with some help along the way! I want to do as much of this car as i possibly can... I'd love to be able to say "I DID THAT!"

So... here we go guys... yet another resto adventure about to happen!

ciao and thanks for all the comments and support guys!

Luv
Kat

sounds like u will be all set soon kat!:bounce

Its gettin there Anthiron!! and will do VERY slowly...

but without the help and generosity of the people on this forum i'd never get anywhere otherwise!

so BIG, HOOGE THANK YOUS go out to everyone espec BlueBus and Jay!
