Your surf + some daft ideas

[Chiko]

What would you do? With the engine swap I'm currently doing on my track car, and the down-right sluggishness of the 2.4 surfs...my mind occasionally cant help but wander as regards "what do I fancy doing to my surf?"

and it's around that time, that I decided that, in an ideal world, my surf would end up being resprayed to match the civic (I'm a loser like that sometimes lol), stick a 2" lift on it with some suitable tyres, and then my favourite part of this fantasy...a 3-litre petrol conversion, aided by a suitably sized Supercharger.



I can't be the only one who occasionally wafts along and goes into a dreamworld?...so come on...whats your fantasy? (about the surf..!)

my dream for my surf is i could run it on tap water with the price of fuel now

with the price of water down here, and the fact that ours is off as much as on ( I just love South West Water) - mine would have to run on air - they havn't worked out how to tax that .............................. ....yet!

I'd be happy with a 3.0 td!
Oh, and a bit more cash to buy lots of toys for it!

[BUSHWHACKER]

Oh, nothing much for me, except the power under the bonnet to be able to do this whenever I wanted.

That just looks like an engine fire!
And that is your wish for your surf?

And the point of all that is?
Have they no idea how much a new set of boots for my surf cost?
Want to go slow and take my time thanks all the same!

Hi, My wish! I wish i had the power of any one of those, As it is i have to
book in advance to get from the slip road onto the moterway,

[BUSHWHACKER]

hehe yeah I know what you mean, you don't need a stopwatch for the zero to sixty, more like a calander.

left foot on stop pedal... right foot on go pedal...

control movement with brake and you can smoke up the whole car park!

[BUSHWHACKER]

Not enough CCs I'm affraid.

[POPEYE]

Yeah they do seem a little underpowered for a 2 ton truck although mine's
should go a lot better than it does, Ishould have got new injectors but was
tempted by the bright side (JAOS bars) Injector cleaner seems to have improved it a lot though, Should have got a 3lt
