black 91 turbo .... no good pics unfortunately.
http://www.wheelspecs.com/rides/vehi...sVehiclesID=46

one of the guys that was apparently well respected in the northeast section on the other forum (a few years ago ... gone now afaik) ripped me off on a spring/strut/assembly combo and had some front springs in the setup that were taller than friggin stock! That's why it looks lifted in the few pics I have of her. I kept expecting them to settle, lol. celebdae took the setup apart and compared to 93 springs and prokits he has (they were supposed to be prokits) and they were taller than both (and taller than 91 springs). :@
she's without an engine at the moment, and assuming colin doesn't v6 her for na2005 vs taking his 93T, I can get her back whenever I have money to spend on frivolity (which won't be for another couple years).

Why? It looks nice. Could use a buff and an engine detail, though, other than that very nice.

offroad is for trucks. don't park performance cars on the lawn (unless they're rusty and mopar). this goes for paul boz as well.

lol i didn't really have an opportunity to take it to any nice setting and the road in front of my hose isn't very nice...cracking, dipping asphalt and pretty dirty

EL PAALO · 02-24-2005, 09:02 PM

i live in Minnesota remember? i bought the car shortly before it had to go into hibernation for the winter (notice fallen leaves)...so i really didn't have time to take it anyplace with my work schedule...i made the sig yesterday and there is snow on the ground right now

still crying about the panasports myself

EL PAALO · 02-24-2005, 09:32 PM

Sorry, man. I forget there are such things as seasons. We only have rain delays here.

David - any specific reason you stuck with the stock steering wheel? I find it so tremendously awkward, does not bother you?

NoSirItsAToyota · 02-25-2005, 12:39 AM

I agree but for the time being I wanted to keep the airbag and I have yet to find a suitable alternative that I know for a fact will fire off if ever the car is wrecked. I still use stock belts on the street.
