#RallyCarChallenge The Mighty Mira
And now another challenge. Lets go!
For this build, i am going to use the Daihatsu Mira x4.
1. Engine
So let us start with the engine. The Mira X4 has a pretty underpowered kei engine, producing under 100hp.
It will soon be replaced with the engine up there. The Hayabusa Engine.
It will not be a direct swap, since changing from a 0.7L i3 Turbocharged to a 1.3L i4 (which will soon be turbocharged).
The Hayabusa engine would be fitted with a RCC Hayabusa Stage 1 Turbo Kit, which will make around 230hp out of the box. Then it would be retuned for maximum reliability and a nice power curve.
Dry sump, Oil cooler, and radiators would be added.
2. Drivetrain
The drivetrain would be like most other rally car: AWD.
But since most drivetrain like the Evo X or even the stock drivetrain doesn’t work, we will need to fabricate our own.
Engine is going to be in the rear.
Power goes to a AWD transfer case (Most likely the Evo 8 or 9)
The AWD transfer case distributes power to all the wheels, with a limited slip diff.
The drivetrain (transmission, driveline, differential) would be custom fabricated from scratch to suit this car.
The wheels are going to be the 13x8 Watanabe RS painted in Silver, paired with 195/70 R13 rally tires.
3. Suspension, Chassis, Body
The Suspension will be a custom modified suspension so it will fit in the might Mira.
Making the suspension fairly high would be good.
With a pretty wide tire for a kei car,the Mira will also get a widebody kit.
The Chassis would be rebuild with more strengthen metals, like carbon fibre.
The Mira will get a 8 point roll cage, custom made.
The Body would be painted with the midnight blue, some stickers.
The brakes would be a 4 Piston brembo, custom made.
(more likely) The Schematics which i drew at school.
FINAL SPECS
Horsepower: 240-260 hp @10,500 RPM
Torque: ???
Redline: 11,000 RPM
Curb Weight: 600kg
Top Speed: Dependant on the gearing
Acceleration: Dependant on grip and gearing.

The White Indian
Whoa!
Wow.
This thing would be a monster. And would try to kill you. But hey, at least it’d be quick for 30s and then crash.
The Mira (if i remember) was once made to be a rally car.
So it has derivation from Rally Motorsport.

NIce choice for it, the Mira, like my Lada, had a rally past and style, also, would the Dai SirionX4 be your oponnent? Btw, love your builds, keep it up, and we need a how to Hoshino vid XD
