LOL that first one I rinsed on the sliproad onto the M4 gave us the filthiest look I think I have ever had in that but I suppose I did go for it down that ramp lol
The aston on the motorway near eastleigh was another goodun, he didnt expect the car to go like that when he was tailgating me hahaha
I love my KLZE :wink:
-
hehe would've loved to see the look on the face on the aston's driver! :P
For me, I'm just gonna try fix up the body this year… then once I'm finished with college and making some real money, my 3's gonna get some serious lovin :P
For this year:
Remove scratches and flaking paint on bonnet (doesn't look visible but you never know when small things will turn big...)
And also have the passenger door repainted (paint's been removed near the handle and some rust on it :( sigh curse the previous owner for not taking good care of this car :P)
And of course, a simple performance improvement, put that CAI in from probestore (or fordprobestore... you know the one :P ) :)

lol @ winding up the NSX! I was trying to taunt some 300zxs with launch control but they were having none of it. Some souped up Glanza tried it on last night, didn't go to well for him :lol:
Good motivation for a job right there Dan :)
-
your telling me :) if i buy a manual could i swap the box for an auto after she has passed? (she doesnt wanna take her manual test)
-
Never read of someone doing it that way round! I'd recommend getting an auto in that case, seem to go cheap enough as everyone wants manual! Otherwise you're going to need a donor car to get the ATX ecu, harness, flex plate, pedal blah blah.
-
na i'll buy a manual and just tell her ill have to get her an auto after she passes. im too young to be driving an auto :)
-

-
I love it, some people look at my 1995 scrapyard challenge beast and then get a glimpse of the back as I leave them behind, it has impressed a few, especially in my local jap club, tearing up GT4's, MR2's and the odd basic skyline hahaha
Anyway back to topic :wink:
-
Just before we go back on topic just gotta say how funny is it that people now refer to cutting the front out the standard bumper "foxing it" pmsl
-
