pretty ugly looking shape, the cordia owns it in the looks department, but factor in the all wheel drive and a turbo motor with some mods and it's be an awesome sleeper!!!!

:D

hey, anyone remember me? probably not lol

anyway, after the smokey cordia which i regretfully sold to create space,
i went rwd...

1st an mr2

with a 5puk clutch, and lsd it was super fun

Image

then i bought this...an r30 skyline turbo

(bumpers are black now tho)

Image

at the moment i'm driving the skyline around every day, because i swaped my mr2 for this...

Image

89 widebody supra..running a 7mgte and auto :?

still goes fairly hard, but not in regular use as it's drinks more than your average v8 and it's still stock as a rock

anyway the reason i'm back is cause i've gone and bought another 80's turbo car....and no it's not a cordia, but it's poorer relitive, the tredia

sporting a blown 1600 carb turbo, and 4speed supershift, and mint as body....all for $50 and a box of beers

pics will be up in a week or so when i get it home

that is all for now...will keep everyone updated of course

Post subject: 

non turbo mr2 that went through 4 litres of oil in as many weeks for a turbo supra with recenty rebuilt top end? pretty good i thought...supra's faster as well
