Can't wait to get them in GT5 and modify them at Lion's Den Performance. If I ever got one in real life I'd get to removing as much weight as possible ASAP.

There's certainly more than enough to get rid of.

I know, that's what makes it so great! People would race me thinking I've got some super heavy boat but they'd be wrong.:lol:

Would just be a really heavy boat.

Maybe, but not so bad it can't be really fast. You could probably get a good 200kg out of a 3000GT.

When it comes to Japanese cars I like me some 3000GT/GTO.:dopey:

:drool: I like!!! 👍

A current E92 M3, for instance, weighs more than the top of the line twinturbo VR-4 used to... Back in the day it was a pig, in 5 years it'll be lighter than a small hatchback, the way things are going.

I know, but old clichés never die ;)

Every time a 3000GT passes by me I make sure to grab my glasses so they don't go flying. Gravity is nothing to play around with.
 
That GTO is absolutely awesome. The only thing I would change would be the hood, I'd rather have it red.
 
Some people have been taking this poke thing a bit too far. That particular car looks absolutely ridiculous, akin to the white trash and redneck cars I see rolling around on tiny wheels sticking out of the fenders. If you're going to poke like that you'd better have some flares covering the tires, otherwise you look like trailer trash.
 
You're comparing a VW to this?

No.

I don't care if this VW's tires are stretched or not, the wheels simply do not fit anywhere remotely under the body and it looks positively amateur.

Wait, you post up something from Speedhunters that came up today, and it's not the right thing...

There.

Nice Datsun.👍
 
No no no, let me get this straight. You posted that car from the new article, even though that picture debuted two days ago inside a different article? Dude. Because that article had this...

That Z attracted my attention much more than the FC in the original post, and now that Dino posted it by itself, I'm sharing.
 
I must admit it's definitely more attractive than the RX. One of the most beautiful cars ever?

Anyway, I just noticed how the RX still has the stock rubber dust covers on the strut towers. Gotta love those covers lol.

Certainly one of the best Z's around, that's for sure.
 
Rado's new AWD Tc looks like it's going to DOMINATE. Damn.
 
Unfortunately lowering a Miata that low pretty much ruins the handling. But of course, people that lower them that much probably don't care.
I agree, but you realize you've got an equally low Miata as an avatar?
 
I like the way it looks, but I would never drive it anywhere but on normal streets.

Edit: best thing to do is to keep the lower control arms at least level with the pavement. Any lower than that on the inside mounting points and it doesn't work quite right.
 
Is that drag car plated in real gold, even the rims?
 
Re: That gold dragster

I'm not sure if they had the same thing in mind, but the McLaren F1 had gold foil as a heat shield in it's engine compartment

Which apparently was used to great effect
