It gives me Ariel atom vibes ..Ive been wanting an old beater Lotus exige to supercharge because they are decently quick, light, have a manual and toyota reliability... but maybe this is a cheaper option. find a beater slingshot at copart and buy zzs kit. wish it had a full roll cage tho... p.s. save the manuals, Ive never owned an automatic they are boring, cost more to fix and take no skill to drive

The 4 wheel conversion looks seriously cool. Zzp did a fantastic job with it

It no longer looks like a bathtub on 3 wheels from the side and back. Now I want one. I would rock a stock one with just the rear end conversion.

Bro this is one of the most unique builds I seen. This gives me the same energy as the supercharged Titan V8 swapped 240SX. Very cool!

Finally a actual review of a four wheeled slingshot. I’ve always been curious.

See this thing almost every day on my drive home from work. Always caught my attention when I saw 4 wheels and heard a BOV and manual transmission. Who knew you were in town test driving it! Cool to actually see what’s been done to this.

Been watching you for nearly 10 years and never commented, but I would never have thought to se you driving around my neighborhood in a video! Keep up the good work :)

Pretty cool watching TDIB drive around locally to where I live. ZZP is a legit shop they know their stuff for sure

I love the things ZZP has done, add this to the list!

Never thought I’d see you on my home turf man! Hope you enjoyed GR and ZZP, can’t wait for you to come back!

This made me consider it as an actual vehicle that I would buy to build and turn into a fun weekend car

Now that’s a slingshot I can appreciate!!! I’ve driven one of the early gens and def wasn’t anything to write home about

Thank you for this demonstration of the capabilities of a finely tuned Polaris Slingshot. My answer to your question is, "Yes, this gives me a totally new take on the Slingshot." The stability of four wheels added to the enormous increase in power puts this concept into serious high performance territory. Threewheelers are great, but they place the third wheel right on the most slippery part of the road. Fourwheelers solve that problem and add a lot of comfort, security and performance. I can envision myself actually undertaking long distance drives - even crossing continents. A new perspective, indeed.

Sooooooo much better with four wheels. My God what an improvement 👍👍

I didn't even finish the video and I liked it already! Cool

Noooo way. A 4 wheel slingshot. Crazy

Man, it's weird seeing TDIB footage so close to home. This build makes sense as a demonstrator. I wonder what it would be like down at The Dragon.

Love it We love it !!!!

Polaris tech here, at the last dealership I worked at we had a customer that had a turbo kit on their 2016 slingshot. I don’t know the horsepower numbers, but I know it pushed 23 pounds of boost with only 3 wheels. Lemme tell ya, it was pretty sketchy. Especially with a bald tire in the rain 😅 I couldn’t imagine how crazy the 4 wheel conversion is. Also Polaris only had a manual option in the 2015-2019 models. They currently still have them in the newer models. The automatics “auto drive” was introduced in 2020. The manual is definitely better than the auto drive system in my opinion. Great video! I had a smile watching the entire thing.

I been wanting a 4 wheel conversion for years. Glad to see how great it is.

Have to be 4wd then go

Dude. That is so bad ass!!!! I love it!!!

A major improvement

This 5-Speed Manual is no slouch either, it is the Aisin AR5, the Modern Aisin R154, updated with triple sychros and better gearing. They are both the same case with interchangeable bellhousings. Amazing budget beefcake manual swap for JZ or LS crowd and cheaper than going T56/R154/CD009. The guys at Fabbot made 880whp in a LS Colorado before the AR5 broke, quite strong.

Wow that thing is unreal manual 4 wheels turbo holy crap soooooo dope !!!!

Daaam! Looks extremely fun 🔥

Never thought there would be the day I would want a slingshot 🤣

Sooo cool. ZZP killed it

I drove one of the older Ecotec powered versions that was turbo and thought that if they were a 4 wheel vehicle they would have been a killer track toy, glad to see a company came through with a kit for them because the 3 wheeled version was utterly useless in those power levels 🤣

Now we need to figure out how to make it AWD. 😁

So much better now I want one!!!!

Love those 4 wheel conversions. Interesting to see if that messes with the licensing of them.

Happy they made it !

6 years ago i build a rear subframe to bolt on miata rear suspension. Used a ford Thunderbird rear diff. The thing was STUPID fun man.

Baddass first I’ve ever seen 👍

Dude, that thing looks like a blast to drive! I’d love to run the Dragon with that thing.

Super cool ! Needs some 33" tall drag radials though

I think it's the best slingshot ever!

Very ingenious idea that ZZP created to fix the handling and power delivery.

I'm a very big supporter of ZZP

4 wheeled slingshot is badass. I want one.

Sign me up!!! Reminds me of one of my TYCO R/C cars when I was a kid. Just the four wheel conversion seems worth the money to me.

Theirs a 4 wheel slingshot in my city and I was all about it, looks like so much fun. Before then I feel like it was a ripped of trex

I got one over the summer. I love the thing. It's definitely more toy than sports car but with mods you can really make them rockets

That's a lotta powah!

Man... this looks so wild

Nice Gokart!

This thing is awesome I want one

Looks like atom or crossbow now both of which look weird but a force in performance and handling. I’m very curious to know if it would track / autocross well or if the the wheelbase is too short.

4wheel is mandatory 🔥🔥

I feel like a slingshot with the 4-wheel conversion just seems like a more refined DF goblin. But also I have never drove either. Just an observation.

Nice 👍

Slingshot is cool! But for those on a budget or maybe you want a fun winter project you can build an NA Miata kart with an eBay turbo kit. It'll be almost the same thing.

To be fair the tires and street were cold and my street tire were on there. In the summer time when it’s hot they do very well. When you have drag radials on it’s unstoppable.

Such a fun toy but nothing I would want to own. Looks like you had lots of fun

this is exellent, honestly is similar to a an old school f1 car in terms of power to weight ratio

I rented a manual one a while back and wouldn't have used "boring" to describe it. I would break the rear loose on every street corner and it sounded a bit like a vintage british car and getting you up to illegal speed pretty easily (and I'm a motorcycle guy). With that said, the rear angle view of the Slingshot makes it hard to look at. Adding a wheel was definitely a great idea, and more power, well you can never really go wrong with that, unless the added weight ruins its balance. I'm sure Polaris would sell a lot more if they had 4 wheels.

I never thought I'd say this about these Geriatric trike bikes, but that thing is the beez kneez man! I'd totally rock one of those with the fourth wheel and that turbo making all that torque, yup! I think the tranny would be a huge concern for me as it probably wouldn't hold up very long, but I'm sure it can be built up to be stronger through trial and error. All in all I'm impressed, interested and intrigued. I can't say for sure that I'd willingly spend the coin to build one of these but I really wouldn't mind having one. 🤘👍
