Re: [DMCForum] Re: De Lorean for sale...

Can anyone remember the specs for the Northstar? I know he gave some 
people a spin in it at Memphis, then needed to clean the seat afterwards....

I'm with Jim though, I'm looking at buying a race bred Nissan Skyline at 
some point and it's painfully obviouis that everything on that car is 
set up for the power (400+) and the DeLorean would just be dangerous.

I'll be limiting my 25 turbo engine to 300, or whatever 1bar of boost 
gives me, although they're capable of over 400hp too.

I will say that with rebuilt calipers, stainless braided flexi-hoses and 
a new master cylinder, the DeLoreans brakes can be made to be very 
positive. It's the manual steering thet really scares me.
