Post by klinenator »

Did any car manufacturer ever make one? If not what about some good turbo diesels or awd turbos.

You want a turbo diesel, buy a truck. You want an awd turbo car, buy an evo/sti/vr4/s4.

You can get this on a 4x4 Silverado chasis. Good enough?

VW has some decent turbo diesels. (see TDi)

AWD Turbos? howabout...a 3/S

or an Audi S4, they appeal to me in some sick weird way.

Hard lines for the fuel injectors

GM is going to be offering a small turbo diesel in the 2009 Cadillac CTS.

Dunno if they'll allow you to pair it with the AWD option though.

Mitsubishi made a 4G63 turbo diesel motor in Japan, you could bolt that into a DSM.

ahh
and thats G54B Starion

Oh and there were a few rare AWD Starions, so that transmission should bolt up to diesel engine theoretically.

actually it is properly 4g54b


in mitsubishi terms the first number is the cylinder count, letter is for gas or diesel and the last 2 numbers are engine family.

Custom job. Turbo diesel AWD sports car.

I've had one kicking around in my head for a while. I'm sure that it isn't unique in any way, but dammit, it needs to be made.
