Looks alright, I would have spent the money on some go fast mods first.

Yeah, if it was meant to be a straight line racer or street carver, perhaps...but speed isn't the primary focust, not that it isn't important, but durability, light weight and suspension is the higher on the list...as is creating a vehicle that is a visual, modern interpretation of the mid 80's factory Nissan desert racers...

Then I would have gone suspension first. What mods do you have planned?

Sure, if I could have done any suspension mods for the cost of the vinyl creation and install—$100

fiberglass front and rear, Titan rear end swap, Titan LT front swap, cage, fuel cell, etc., etc.

Will run RallyCross events this year with cage going in starting mid '10 then continue with RallyCross into '11 with entry into Pro Rally events with fuel cell and remainder of requirements going in starting mid '11 and seeing entry into a desert race in '12 (along with continuing to run RallyCross and select ProRally events)
