2009 SEMA xD Rally Car
Never imagined I would see a Scion xD converted into a competition rally racer, but it's been done. See what Sparco did with one in the article with accompanying photos at this link> http://www.autoblog.com/2009/11/03/s...n-xd-rallying/

hmmm..... +1 for ingenuity...
|
Wow, I want that light cluster on the hood for my xD, lol! Not! :bleh:
|
i like the xd next to it :)
|
That is too funny. I was about to post that same car when I saw on MSN the other day. It does looke pretty cool looking as a rally car. I wonder how fast it can get up too.
|
Probably fairly fast. In the article and list of mods they mention going to special shocks and springs, for higher clearance, shocking and rebounding. Also noticed a full roll cage, no doubt giving it extra stiffness albeit more wieght. But I'm sure they tweaked the motor for higher output for extended periods.
We all know how nimble our cars are, just imagine driving one specially built to race/rally. I'd love to take it out and flog it around some rally course and see for myself, but, If wishes were horses.. :signs6: |
reminds me of the SERT rally xa that was built

yah i saw it at sema... +1 for the thought.... looked amazing and actually looked functional.... wish they would have posted a extended mod list so i could actually see what was doen as the engine was closed
|
it would be even more interesting to see what performance modifications had been done to it. im thinking intake. exhaust and tweeked with the ecu :birgits_tiredcoffee
|
i would doubt anything haveing to do with the ecu... as we have the same stupid learning ecu type that the other scions do not sure.. i dont recal seeing or reading if they were running an EMS....
|
prolly a motor swap
