I'd give up on this dream of yours, it's extremely unrealistic to try to build a car that would do it on the street. Traction doesn't happen on the street, I've been in a GSX that was stock except exhaust, and he didn't get traction launching... GSX means AWD just incase you aren't familiar with imports.

RE: Wheelie
have everything up front as light as possible battery in the trunk.... tubular k member a-arms aluminum heads take the smog and a/c out of the car build the motor for some power get some good rear suspension components drag lite rims and some sticky tires out back i dont see why the car couldnt lift the tires for a good amount of time and im sure there are other components that could help in achieving this goal hell i would like to do one on the street not through a intersection but maybe on a side street with no one around just to be able to say i did it... good luck

I used to be able to pull them in my 93 GT, but it wouldn't stay up long. It's takes the right car on the right street to do it for the most part. Like I said, I'll TRY and be there this Spring after the motor swap... we'll see how I do.
