01 Diablo 6.0 VT... suggestions please
 

Finally gearing up for this project...
This is a vehicle I acquired from the original owner for my personal use. It has a NYS salvage title, so I am turning to TEAMSPEED for input !

Return it to stock or go BALLS OUT???


This accident is from Nov. 2008, my company responded to recover the helpless beast!

well, it's a salvage title so you won't get much for it if you plan to re-sell. if you are going to put any money into it you better keep it forever otherwise it would be pretty foolish. also, make sure the chassis is straight. what caused the accident in the first place?

Fernando Alonso.

:smilie:

Define "go BALLS OUT"....

I'd say either return it to stock or go down the SV-R route.

you never quit eh? :lol: :friends:

yes, we need details. please tell me you won't put "martino auto concepts" in old english on the rear window.

paint it black and put it back to stock. i think a wing looks good on a diablo...

2 words: Twin Turbo. :friends:

2 words: great idea

frame damage or just cosmetic??

I say supercharge it, you can run 10.5 1/4s on like 2-3lbs of boost :)

Great suggestions! That's what I want to hear. I will go into details regarding the repair as we move forward.

When you dive into the damage post alot of pics, we dont get to see what happens to these cars very often, id love to see what it looks like up close

We are in the infancy stages of this reconstruction. We are gearing up to pull the drivetrain & mount on the "CARBENCH" to diagnosis & replace necessary structural & mechanical components.

Thanks for the interest, Joe

I say go balls out, and I would define that as painting it balloon white, gloss black wheels and mirrors, and some forced induction!

^^^^^^^ ESPECIALLY THE WHEELS PART..:lol:

What do you recommend ?

its called a diablo.
it needs 666 hp.

Probably Vossen Wheels!! :-)

Go Twin Charged!! Turbo and Supercharger!!!! ;)

666 HP would be awesome.

even better would be 666awhp. And I agree, its a salvage, paint it some crazy color as well. Balloon white is a great suggestion except its just like Roys. I say go even more unique. Then build the engine to handle the turbos and twin turbo it. I think that would be pretty crazy

I say bring it to Le Man status!

Give it some BBS 3-piece meshes, an aero package, and a viscous exhaust.

A purpose built look will be way more badass than a playboy look. If anyone can do- it's MAC!

GT-R bits + Verde Scandal or Verde ithaca paint, or why not the yellow/orange hue that the McLaren F1 GT-R came in?

It seems like you also need new exhaust? :)

My friend has a twin supercharged vt roadster.....that thing is nastyyyyyyy! My vote goes to balls out!

balls out because its value as an original is screwed.

Since we're keeping this a two word thread, then I'd like to add my two words: Underground Racing :)

666 awhp or go home! :D
