A poor picture of my entire fleet, in the middle of moving some stuff around for the upcoming week. (06 DRZ400SM, 08 M3, 13 Civic Si, 07 Explorer)

It's already found its natural habitat, a lawn near some trailers. If you start wearing a wifebeater and urinating in public I bet it'll gain 20 horsepower.

Drove the GTV from winter storage to our new house. Next up is the maintenance which was neglected during the winter in a garage which came with the house.

I moved my truck back home for the first time in a couple of years last weekend and now I laugh every time I see past both my silver cars parked next to each other! Height and width wise the Aygo would fit in the back of the landrover...

Took it for a drive around the bay. It's so nice to have a convertible again, especially one that lets me put the top down at 25mph in traffic

Think of it like people that dye their hair green and pink... do people immediately think that's horrible and ugly? Some do, because it detracts from the conservative image they prefer, but others either don't care or they actually like it.

For the life of me, I can't tell why you Americans really want Skylines.. Eh, we don't really want Skylines, we want GT-Rs, and possibly GT-Ss. And R32 or later, please. Possibly the '70s ones. The Hakosuka in particular looks like a mini-musclecar when outfitted with some nice, wide Watanabes.

It was nice on Saturday, so I took the crackerjack box out to play, its like a little puppy, all excited and filled with joy. It makes everyone I know really mad that I have this, and it's nice and rust free. It stays nice because most of the time it is parked in the driveway under a car cover.

Guess who escaped from the garage today.  She even made a little friend but the dealer wanted 30k for an automatic scion so it couldn't come and play.

  I got black flagged because my friend was filming with his phone in the first one  Also pictured my 60 quid (trust pex) exhaust, which according to one of the instructors was spitting gobs of flame out. Unfortunately not captured on camera. Also the car is filthy because I went off on the fastest corner, knocked the exhaust into the tow eye, damaged bits of undertray, put a dent in the sump and somehow knocked loose my oil pressure sensor which then started leaking. So I had to spend about an hour franticly fixing everything so I could get back on track. track day bro! fucked around with this message at 23:38 on Mar 24, 2014 |

one of us, one of us. MAP sensor failed/something along those lines in the new ECU, being warrantied out. Runs for the first time in years, few minor mechanical bits to do then off for a repaint as it pretty horrible up close.

SquirrelGrip posted:one of us, one of us. Nice, I do like the spoilerless look especialy with the aftermarket rear spats. Mine is due for full claybar, machine polish etc at some point but hosed if i'm gonna do it. I'm just going to pay someone else because I hate doing that stuff. Also I replaced the amber sidelights with some 1996 onwards clear ones, which dont bloody fit as they should so i'll have to buy some new ones from toyota. Also i'm on the lookout for a rev5 rear wing. Doesnt help I just found out someone I used to work with is selling a set of TE37s from his old car, i'm tempted but i'd have to get shot of the rays ms01-lms i've had sitting in the shed for months.

Yeah it was spolierless when i bought it - all i had done was the holes welded in the qtr panels and boot. Have to pickup a new bootlid as someone mangled the engine lid+bootlid when it got broken into. Am paying for all work to be done as well - i have neither the time nor room to do it myself. If i could pickup some TE37's i would - probably settle for something cheaper as the current rims are orrible

I'm a massive Toyota fan, and have always loved MR2s. Specifically the AW11s, but the maintenance on a tiny rear engined car gives me a headache just thinking about it. That, and like all cool cars in Aus.. they're mostly expensive as gently caress.

My old car was spoilerless for a while, mainly because a friend crashed into it and I ended up buying a base model boot with no spoiler. Although no welding required as it was a rev3 car with a one piece spoiler. Although it didnt look that great, you can pull off the spoilerless look better with the bodykit. I dont think your wheels are too bad, i'm just reconsidering having 17's as a second set. The main advantage is tyre choice, as its hard enough finding decent staggered rubber in smaller sizes over here. At the moment i'm running a 235/50/16 rear, which is apparently some oddball size used by tvrs. Although now its not so bad as I can get AD08R and R1Rs in the right size for 16s. fingerling posted:I'm a massive Toyota fan, and have always loved MR2s.

Although that shouldnt be a problem in australia!

They've grown on me, people compliment them all the time and kids love them. I ordered a purple set to go with my extra green ones so i can mount my snow tires on them. My girls argue about riding in the Odyssey for school because they want to ride in dads car and that's cool enough for me.

I haven't had my fenders rolled yet but I only lightly rub on big dips, I need to adjust the passenger side rear to be a little higher which should eliminate about 60% of the rubbing I'm getting, I'll have the fenders rolled when I find some time.
