Nice bike! How much was the invisible wheel option?

 

[miniMADness]

well...i can do it for free, just give me some tracks, and it'l be wheelless in no time, im always breaking stuff

 

[cm108kph]

haha me too

first time i took the trek for a ride down the mountains my i hit front brakes too hard, went flying, and totally bent my rear wheel.

Mine's a 1991 Toyota MR2 2.0GT-i16, the euro-spec NA-model with a 156bhp 3S-GE engine. That car is just too much fun! I've attended five trackdays this summer and still can't believe how hard it sticks to the ground, no matter how fast I shove it into a corner. I suppose it's a law of nature that red cars are always fast.

It's almost winter now and I'll have to tuck my '2 to sleep for about 4 months but in the meanwhile, my Corolla KE70 will be taking the beating from the harsh finnish winter. That car isn't red, so it's not fast either but at least it's FR so some tailslides might be expected in the snow.

Thanks. It's very lightly modified, only Eibach Pro-Kit springs and TTE exhaust (manufactured by Remus) at the moment. The rest is pretty much stock Toyota parts. And I agree on the rims. They're 7.5x16" TSW Avus-R which I bought from a Supra owner. Too bad that they're a bit on the heavy side, though - 9.8kg a pop.

Anyway, there's a pile of parts waiting in the garage to be installed while the car's sitting over the winter; Koni Sports shocks, TRD bushings and top mounts, EBC brake rotors and pads, Goodridge brake lines. I'm still a bit undecided on what to do with the engine so I'm concentrating on handling and braking for now. Swapping it for a 3S-GTE turbo lump is quite a tempting idea...

I have quite a lot of of pics from different angles, such as this (can anyone say "Best Motoring", huh?):

...but instead of posting them all here, I'll post a link to my gallery page to avoid cluttering the thread too much;

Unfortunately I don't seem to have any decent interior pics, so I'll try to snap better ones some tomorrow and add them to the gallery.

I drive a 1986 Hyundai Pony. My mom bought this car in 1986 for about $6000 and it still goes for the most part (although I try not to use it on the highway). Here is a list of its characteristics:

-very rusty exterior
-missing all 4 hubcaps
-it has a tan coloured exterior and interior
-both rear passenger windows do not work
-car does not go in reverse (it must be pushed)
-there are many brown stains on the upholstry
-the floor has rusted through under the two legs of the front passenger seat which causes the seat to bounce when the car moves

1990 1.5L crx that i'm selling, hopefully soon. here's a list of mods

2 inch custom mandrel bent downpipe, tanabe racing medalion muffler, k&n air filter, ceramic dc 4-2-1 header(a gift from my uncle who used to have a crx), 1.6L SI intake manifold, edlebrock throttle body(what a waste of money dumping it into a 1.5L huh? ), denso iridium power spark plugs, kyb adjustable gas shocks(agx), skunk2 coilovers, a no-name adjustable upper tie bar, another no-name adjustable front sway bar, and a fluidine radiator that was basically given to me at $50 brand new

My primary vehicle is an '85 El Camino it's not a looker but it has the power. Right now it has a 4.3 liter V6, but of everything goes right it will get a 305 or a 350 with dual quads.

My baby is a 1985 Trans Am. It is getting it's motor rebuilt right now so it doesn't run, but when it's through it will run at least 11s on the quarter.
