so...what would make the best sleeper...

[CXTdreamer]

you don't. (that was a test to weed people out who think V8 engine conversions in 911's are good)

if you're buying a 928 why not stick with the Porsche V8? so long as it's not an S you'll be fine.

just buy a 968 and be done with it - who needs a V8 anyway.

For true reliability... 928 with a Stag V8 :rotflol:

Fullsik dorifto!!
:D

[Captiva Fan]

944 with SR20DET?

Now that's actually not that bad an idea ... except that the Great Unwashed probably expect a 944 to go a lot better'n it does.

Fullsik dorifto!!
:D

:rotflol: I didnt notice that till you said it! :D

[Coolie]

Yeah the jag! Ok you might have to do a lot of work to make it go fast...

The sleeper part would be that youre not broken down on the side of the road :D

[Q]

XJR runs mid 13's std......

[Coolie]

Yeah but I dont think that the big man is looking at that kind of outlay mebbe one of the old Jag tanks that you can buy 3 for a dollar like redskins

[F|sh]

gemini maybe a daewoo...........


what about a camira. everyone hates camira and they can be picked up for a song. My uncle had a Dark blue one that had door problems

[RX7HOTTY]

What about the new colt with an sr20 conversion lol..

My best sleeper I had was a SSS Pulsar with the SR20 but now every one has em..

[timtx5]

I dont see a lot of front wheel drives as huge sleepers, purely because big power results in lots of dead and expensive gearbox issues, often with no possible way to rectify the situation.
I guess a sleeper needs to be able to move from the line, on the street or strip, and the way a lot of front wheel drives do leave the line probably leaves a little bit to be desired. I think some of the cars mentioned would struggle to do better than a mid to high 14, which I guess in my definition isnt going to be huge sleeper material, especially with the pace of current family sedans.

[RX7HOTTY]

True I had hassles with my SSS being front wheel but got a good time at the creek in her...

As for another sleeper the old Pintara or TRX with 13BTT S6 conversion but single it out with just a T66

VW Thing


VW Country Buggy


get something turbo from the states and slot it straight in. theres a VW Country Buggy on it's side on the way out of Redenberry Bridge in Singleton if anyone is up for a challenge.

enough with the weirdmobiles already! sleeper doesn't necessarily mean ugliest fucking thing on the road!
Oh, and no vans!

My old escort...wasnt the quickest thing out there, but suprised a fair few people

Old Volvo 240 ...mate had one with a 308, what a slepper that was, was pretty quiet and sounded like an old ovlov with an exhuast leak...different story when the throttle was mashed

[kwottr0]

Is a slepper anything like a slipper ? My slippers are quiet too. But when I plant it I loose traction on the shiny wooden floor. Word, bro.

But I was gonna suggest Mark1 escort too...In that old gold colour, with the chrome hubcaps... Should have room to throw a reasonable power plant in there.

[Jim]

maybe I should go back to the stock looking beetle idea. I already have a good slice of what I would need.
