I found 9 things.


1- obviously FWD w/ rwd drag setup
2- no diff pumpkin
3- front bumper doesn't fit
4- rear wing on FWD drag car, also on trunk lid
5- induction hood with intake underneath facing the wrong way
6- dryer duct intake plumbing
7- red lights in front grill, illegal for several reasons
8- can see coil-over through driver-side fart can
9- induction hood appears to be bolt on

No rear wing?

Stupid tablet... I really couldn't see the pics very well on it. I see there is a rear wing.

Massive rear tires on a FWD car that has not had a RWD conversion?
Completely fake exhaust tips (you can see the suspension through the left tip)

Though now that I look at the last picture more closely I'm not sure what I'm seeing.

I would love to see some higher resolution shots of this monstrosity.

:thumbsup: Look closely at that rear axle. It looks like a solid tube with no differential.

And what is that "blower" attached to? It look s like someone just mounted afake intake on top of the stock Toyota motor.

There is.

Not in the last pic (edit, maybe there is... you can kind of see part of the support).

In my defense, my first post was made from my tablet and I couldn't see the wing in any of those pics. :p

I love the mechanically inert panhard bar looking thing that connects the axle to.... itself... While being entirely in the wrong plane anyway.

Shocks on the same side, don't see anything else inhibiting axle roll.

Wheelie bars just clamped to the axle with exhaust clamps and free to slip and rotate under any real applied force and not three dimensionally rigid (Eg 3 or more mount points not in line) hmm oh wait there actually appears to be some kind of rigid strut/third link on the left wheelie bar in the later pic.

Roll cage in trunk but not in passenger compartment.

Chute anchored to the plastic bumper cover.

Trying to find the non obvious stuff.

I love the work in progress. Its like someone called him out on something and he tried to make it look more legit (Eg adding a strut rod/brace to the wheelie bars).

I think it's easier and faster to spot right things in that car... Oh wait, there isn't any, so impossible.

Geeze guys.... Seriously.... Nobody mentions the sticker still on the rear tire yet?

Also 'the fast and the furious' sticker on the window....Like it means anything. Lol

seeing this almost makes me embarrassed to own a Toyota.

.

You're right, but you're overthinking it. A FWD car shouldn't have wheelie bars in the first place.

Lol, and that bar holding the chute appears to be connected to the car with zip ties.

So much about that car just begs WHY? The big Street Scoop is a good example. Just...why? How'd he even mount the thing.

Out of all the awesomeness on that car, I think the part I like best is the dryer vent intake.

Probably IS owned by a 17y/o highschool male cheer leader. The only thing missing from this wreck is a tree or lamp post buried into the radiator.
