this is my second attempt at the warrior supercar. it is a Wip and will be untill my lego part order arrives. 

I would like to incorporate these features:

1. Hog / servo.

2. Double wishbone suspension with twin rear shocks.

3. Gearbox : canceled.

4. Working (fake) engine.

5. Sporty bodywork.

6. Functional steering wheel.

note: this is a fictional car so it will be easier to customize.

It would be cool if you were to keep a gearbox, I'd also suggest a four-speed to keep it narrower or use something along the lines of @Didumos69 sequential gearbox in his most recent hammer head build. That way you still have a narrow centre and gearbox. Also try Sariels scaler, take a modern supercar and put it in for a try it'll give you accurate proportions which make a big difference in the overall appearance! :thumbup:keep it up, take your time you'll get there.

Gear knob (apologies for color vomit. Lego order has not arrived.)

Another update: a custom engine is needed, or gearbox resize, Which one should I chose?

Custom engine would be better. I've archieved very good results using this method ( nevermind the chassis). Those are cams with 1/4 pins on top as pistons. the downside is that it doesn't work upside down, hovewer , a V-type engine is possible.

Also , 2l axles with half-bushes can be used as pistons:

I think I can fit a regular engine now, I already made a gearbox 3 studs tall so it should fit now.

A lot of things have changed: I think I will make a new topic a different topic, and will convert the car to rc.
