Default Exocet

I have a ap1 s2k with a turbo stroker kit from Inline Performance in Virginia, and i am really caught up in the idea of making the vehicle an exocet. The car is obviously not going to be a daily, however i am having a hard time figuring out where to start with this. I want to be able to keep the motor, suspension, drivetrain and transition is to an exo frame but im not sure how to go about getting one. Is there anywhere that makes exo frames for s2000s or would i have to get one custome fabricated. If i need it custom made are there any places nearish North Carolina, USA that could mold one for me? Thanks

It is a good way to destroy a car for sure.

Other Donor Cars?



S2000, 240SX, MR2, E36, BRZ, FR-S?:
  • Sorry, not compatible
  • Very extensive modifications would be required
  • The Exocet is designed around the Miata drivetrain and suspension

What do you think you can build on this chassis? Doesn't compare to the Miata or old VW beetle with literally a separate body. As Cody says you destroy the car.
