How much does it weigh, they've always been extremely overweight....

Wonder if that an Audi GT Coupe rear end/suspension :thinking:im not sure on the curb weight, but this is a 500+ hp car. the fact that he rotated the motor and pulled it back towards the fire-wall and made it RWD, It should be a handler.... provided the spent some coin on the suspension. I like this better than the rear engine setup because of the dreaded "snap-steer" effect.

Anyone have any real info on this car as in what tranny and rear end was used? Anymore engine shots? I'm trying to figure out how the intake manifold and piping for the intake is ran?
