    It starts with boredom, then.....

    So, I am playing Forza Motorsport 2 with my 12 year old, and I am running a red Lancia Delta Integrale and my son says, "dad, that looks like your car" (88 Mazda 323) and I say, "No it doesn't, I would need to box flare the fenders, put a bubble in the hood, knock a couple of vents in it, flatten the front end, put in quad round headlights, like off of a bmw e32 and......so on and so forth". In saying this, I realized how "easy" it would be to do. What does everyone else think?

          the idea could be cool if you pull it off.

          "There's a hierarchy of insanity in motor sports. Normal people think all racers are crazy. Folks who race sedans think people in open-wheel cars are nuts. People who race cars of any kind think motorcycle racers are absolutely off theirs meds. But there's one group that everyone agrees is made up of the most extreme, the most daring, and absolutely craziest people in racing - rally racers."

            There used to be a boxy, flared fender kit for the BF... many moons ago. You might be able to still find the pictures on the internet. The pre-facelift hood on the cars sold overseas had the bump on on the hood. The JDM pre-facelift lights were of a quad-light design, but not rounded lights.

              What car was it in Forza? To my knowledge there's no BF car in any GT or Forza game.

                actually the car I was referring to was the lancia Delta Integrale. But that widebody looks sick!

                    I will own one of those... before I die. I have a hard on for late 80's rally cars.

                      Good, so I am not the only one who finds this car drop dead sexy. It would not be a far cry from a 323 2-door to look similar. Box flares, change the hood and fender lines and quad round headlights, hmmmmm......

                          I have worked on these before,they look much better in person. pain in the ass to work on, even to remove the oil filter you have to unbolt the battery and move it out of the way but its a sweet car, that engine bay is cramped and everything under it is too.
                          here is a shot of the engine bay. believe me there is less room than it look

                            I would compare complaining about working on one of those machines is like complaining about Scarlett Johannsen's teeth. Maybe it's just me. I would give various parts of my male designating anatomy to put my hands on either. apologize for misspell, drinking. "hiccup" . Wait a minute...looking at these pics you have, these are engines from a front engine car. I thought the lancia was rear engine, I could be wrong. Yup I am horribly mistaken.

                              You guys need to stop drinking. I think the 323 looks better. Heck, a Dodge Omni almost looks better. It looks like a glorified Yugo....
