I have found a couple junk yards in Kali that had a few wrecked Tiburons. They're a lot more common now than back in 03, so you might probably be able to find one locally. Although most are V6 models.

What do you need? Maybe I can help more. After all, a Tiburon is my DD.

Thanks Matt, is to build a drag race car

I have found a few of them but with a lot of damage, salvage yards are asking anywhere from 3k to 7k, and yes 4 cyl Auto seems to be even harder, the reason is that our engine builder and our program is already in place with this platform, 4 cyl single turbo intercooler, with NOS and Auto.

Any links or anything could be great.

Thanks for the effort

Are you planning on buying a junked one and fixing it up, or do you already have a good body/chassis and want a spare engine for or something?

You can always check out www.newtiburon.com. It's the Tiburon site I frequent.

I am on that forum and the hp tiburon forum , no help so far,

we need the entire car, and we will work from there on, if is wreck we will fix it as long as is not a lot of work, the ones that I have found nedeed way to much work just to repair it and bring it back to usable condition.

So basically you'd want to get one that's been totalled, but not TOO bad, and get a salvage title to fix it up for drag? I'm not sure where to find something that specifically fits that bill... I'd try to find some junk yards... what you find would probably really be luck of the draw...

I'd really like to see someone take a V6 and use Ripp's supercharger to see how much horsepower they can get out of it before the engine goes POOF! I've heard they got about 320 to the wheels.
