I read somewhere that you have a prowler, was wondering if you have done or were considering to do any modifications? I picked one up in march thinking about doing some mods to add some kick to it.. but can't find a lot of feedback from prowler owners

Prowlers are a rare car there are only 10 that are in New Mexico alone =O)

i heard they had suspension problems, figures 2 of the 10 cant sellComment

Congrats, they're the best.
I've got a Borla exhaust and cold air intake which are good for 19HP. But it really doesn't need it, it's a kick without it!
What color do you have?Comment
-
mines silver, what about yours?
did you keep the front bumper on yours? i had them removed a week after i got the car.Comment
-
i was checking out some exhausts, not a lot of options for the prowlers.. the HMS header/exhaust claims 22hpComment
-
would someone post a pic of one of those? i am curiousComment
-
Color? Here ya go

you really cant do much to a prowler, the v6 is a piece of shit so supercharging is out of the question, you'd have to import a whole new engine, so the next best thing is n02, which isn't good for a crap engine, plus a 5lb tank lasts you about half a day at the track. Prowler owners usually buy for 'looks' but performance wise there really isn't much you can do with it. borla will add 19 hp like lens said for about 1500 and hms cost almost 5000 for 3 more hp- not worth it.
Drunken good move on removing the front bumpers- looks alot better now doesnt it?

MrBrian if i remember correctly you have a couple rx-7's right? sweeet looking rides, i had a tt 2 years back, biggest mistake was to sell itComment

You could probably fit a 4.0L V8 in there
but the torsion would twist the frame.
Maybe if you put some titanium bars across
the undercarriage it wouldn't snap it in half.
Then again, it's a cruiser car, not a drag-racing hot rod.If you're trying to objectify the subjective, you need to stop breathing.Comment

(general Q for everyone)
What kinda custom license plate would you get for a prowler?
I'm jealous *sigh*

my good friend bought an rx7 a few years ago, the thing's a money pit. He's got oz rims, a blitz turbo, and a nice body kit. We blew his rear end when we raced a porsche. He has over 400 horsepower so i guess the shit stock rear end couldn't take it.
It can beat a viper off the line but the viper pulls away in third gear.Comment
-
basically your friend cant drive.
a viper should beat a 400hp rx7 out of first gear...middle of 2nd and up the rx7 wins.
the rx7 weighs 600-700 pounds. the viper hood alone is over 100 pounds. the rx7s is all aluminum and weighs 15

nice ride lensman
got me an old school bmw 325 that I'm restoring doesn't need much but i've had the car for 10 years and kinda drove the hell out of it great strong cars it's my third bmw
Comment
-
you forget i was in the car with him, that's another 175 pounds. We we're on the highway when we raced the viper so we we're already going 100kms, so i can't really say what would happen in a quarter mile. He says he beat a viper though.
I'll post a picture when i get one. If you hang around that rx7 board you've probably talked to him, who knows.Comment

ya JOE_L is right.
prowlers suck! basically just a sucker future car to get the newbie yuppie excited. All show, no go! I feel for any sap who paid $ for one of these. I heard they were giving them away for advertising once. I simply declined. Plymouth just cant make a good car since the SuperBee! too bad. I heard that a prowler cant take a simple turn at 30 MPH or it will flip. Obvious by the prehistoric front suspension.
For 42,000.00..... if youcant afford a BENZ.. at least get a Lincoln Towncar or something respectable. shit

Come on guys... what will it take to convince you that sports cars suck?
You can spend $800,000 on a McLaren F1, and that car doesn't even have a back seat. Kind of reminds me of Bad Boys. "No cup holder, no back seat, this a shiny dick with two chairs in it!" ...except that the McLaren has 1 seat.
Or, $200,000 for a Rolls Royce Silver Seraph. Ride in style, built like a tank. Money well spent.Comment

Any of you American guys know of Rowan Atkinson, aka Mr. Bean (actor)?
He had a purple McLaren F1, and crashed the fucker! Write off.
It just goes to show, when you give someone a 230mph car, the first thing that they will do is get 230mph from it...Comment

(in response to the Mr. bean crashing car incident)
When the dodge viper was initially released to engineers to take home overnight, so many of the cars ended up wrapped around telephone poles. it was unbelievable. I do believe that the engineers have to take a driving class before they're allowed to touch 'em nowadays.
