A new addition to the car family - a Mitsubitshi Legnum VR4
basically its a 280bhp v6 twin turbo estate
already slightly modified too with kakimoto race exhaust, tein coilovers ,
17 reyseng alloys , in car dvd/tv/playstation etc :)
My previous ride to this was this beast
Nissan Skyline R33 GTs-t which was heavily modifed ( only standard part
left was the main shell ) which was my drift machine...
Also started a new part time job for something to do, so now i work in a
porn shop * joy * and get paid a nice wage to watch DVD porn and sell
plastic dicks to needy women all day :P
my fave wallpaper at the mo
semi-related
PS: any b0ggers going to the lowlands
festival in biddinghuizen this weekend ? i'm gona road trip up there
so should be a good laugh on the way :D

the mitsi's running gear is the same as the evolution4 so believe
me - it handles exceptionally well even tho its an estate - embarresed
a supra last night with it lol
most guys that have american muscle cars go for the
fast straight lines. more power and not much else.
myself included.
there is alot that can be done to change that
i like to see what some of the cars can do vs a new Zo6
Best bang for the buck
of ANY sports car out there.
Even
better, it's a car we can get right here. I
don't have to go get some shop to get it all
spec'd up for DOT approval. I can even drive
itto church on Sunday with Granny Ego riding
comfortably shotgun.
Like the
'Liner, the 'Vette is friendly to tuning
& there's a whole mess of potential
hidden away in that beast.
Right now, I'm finally putting
the whammy on my white coupe. It's
getting new springs, shock/struts, lower
control arm bushings, tension control
rod bushings, front & rear solid
sway bars, front & rear strut tower
braces, & braided stainless steel
brake lines. All bushings are upgraded
from rubber to urethane. Whoooo-hoooo!!
I've already slapped on
the stainless steel cat-back system.
What I REALLY need to do is drop in an
RB26DETT (Twin turbo motor out of a
'Liner).
All I have
now is the KA24DE that is 150hp at the
crank.
Not many cars can
keep up when the road starts to bend,
but they usually make up for it in brute
force if the driver has any juevos. Oh
well...
My thoughts exactly. Plus it looks great and it's a
classic.
If I buy a 1990, than it'll be a veteran in 7.5 years and
I'll only pay 1/12 insurance! Woohoo
I found a very nice 1990 2+2 VG30DETT, though I'm puzzlez
why it has US plate size (here in Europe most have EU size),
95tkm (questionable, time to do the timing belt), but the thing I
like most is that it is 100% original, even the rims, and it
looks like someone took care of it.
I'm pretty sure it is since it is listed as
200kW, which is probably a typo of 208, which is
also wrong cuz 208 were the automatics, this
one's shift 218kW or 300bhp. The non turbos
were 185-227bhp.
The price is 4800€ or about 7000USD.
