  • New to SW w/ some dumb cars and pics

    Hi everyone. My name is Joe and I am the proud owner a few shitbox Saturns. I started driving with the platform and quickly fell in love with the plastic family cars. I've owned only saturns (well one rolling shell DSM) since I was 17. I've built a bunch of motors and my first setup was an n/a build with a ported head, cams, ported IM and a big throttle body and stock rebuilt bottom end. It moved pretty good, but I had turbo dreams. I started researching, saving and lusting over having a sleeper build. Well I've pulled that off after a few years and now I currently own two boosted saturns.

    First I have my DD which is a 94 SW2. It's pretty low, sitting on MOMOs (they're off for the winter) and currently boosted using a T3super60 and running on a Megasquirt stand alone. I'm working on a new coilover setup for the summer to dump it lower and possibly go to a new wheel setup.

    Started like this (it was beat to hell lol):





    Currently sits like this:





    And then there's my SC2. This is my real project car. I started a build thread so you guys can check that if you want all the specs and more pictures. I bought it bone stock with a blown motor and turned it into a 12 second street car after 4 years and a lot of headaches and set backs.

    Started out like this:



    Went to this:



    Post your build threads here! Keep us updated on what you're doing in your garage.


    Hope to stick around and get some more ideas for my cars, especially the wagon since that's the one which will be getting more into the fitment department. I also work on all kinds of other cars from civics to Ford trucks, old chevys and chryslers. I hang out with some guys that build old cars so I'm learing about carbs, but all my background is in EFI cars so I'm learing a lot recently.

              Thanks guys. There's a few dudes in florida making just south of 500whp so I'm chasing them haha. I have the motor to do it now, just need to get better at tuning.

              p.s. the wagon looks a lot lower in person, the ground shot makes it look taller than it actually is.
