Man, I forgot about the SLR...  :D
 
I'd buy many diffrent McLaren F1 cars, The Escudo of course!, and the Toyota GT-One. But since if I had unlimited cash I'd design my own model. 😈
 
Your own model...  :)
 
Too cool ohredneck.  You sound like some of my friends here.   Yeah, that would be one tough Jeep.  
 
I have a silver 94' Mitsubishi Galant. I have put in a whole new stero system all sony with a 12 sub. I also did my whole interior in red and black with neon lights. I just added an aerospeed exhaust with 5.25 tip. I am also putting rims and a body kit on in the coming months. My engine now is a 2.4 liter in-line 4 with 145 HP. But I plan to drop in an Eclipse twin turbo engine.
 
The Galant is a nice car but not many get sold. It sounds like yours is about to get a lot better though.
 
Thinking about it, I would get a Caterham R500 Superlight.

I drive a 86 Chevy Spectrum (a.k.a. Isuzu I mark)...lol. My as well be a Geo. It doesnt have any mods cause its not worth it. Heck..I barely fit in it bein 6ft 3in.
 
Streetlethal, youve got the right idea on the Mitsu.  
Love the idea of the turbo motor.  Thats the way you mod a car.  I know you watched the Fast and the Furious.  Great movie.  Keep up the good work on the Mitsu.  Got any pics you can post of the car.  Id like to see it.  later.
 
I have a '96 Galant, but my toy is my '93 White MR2 non-turbo. I'm looking for a super charger for it, if anyone knows where I can get one let me  know.

Hey Zeram, where you from if your in the Dutch army??
Holland??
Im originally from Wiesbaden Germany.  
Blackmoun, have you checked on an engine swap or thought about NOS or turbo.  There are many MR2 sites out there with excellent forums on how to spruce up your car.  You should have a lot of potential with your car.

impolite drivers
 
I drive a 1993 Taurus SHO.

Mods include - 2 dual exhaust, Dynomax mufflers, Quaife differential, 80 mm Mass Air Flow meter, ported and polished intake manifold, chip, big bore butterflies, K&N filter, cold air intake, solid aluminum radiator, rear control arms, H brace, Baer (Corvette) brakes, Koni shocks, SHOshop linear springs, front and rear strut tower braces, front camber/caster plates, high flow catalytic converters, light flywheel, Luk kevlar clutch, 16 Roh sniper wheels, 225/16/50 ZR BFGoodrich G-Force tires.  I have a Garrett turbo in my basement as well (who knows...).

This car was a hand-me-down from my dad.  Ya'll are gonna have a heart attack when you find out what he drives... 1997 Toyota Supra twin turbo.  It has the complete BPU package and Koni shocks and Eibach springs.  That is one hell of a car, with just a downpipe, exhaust, boost controller, and spark plugs, it's up to 480 horsepower at 18 psi.

It's stupid fast.
 
I want the next hand me down PLEASE!!!!!!
Youve got a great performance family.  My kind of family.  
Nice rides dude.  I wish I could do that, just dont have the funds for that kind of an effort.
Nice to have you aboard man, and take car of the rides.  They are sweet.

not enough funds
 
Quote: from TALONclaw on 3:17 pm on July 18, 2001[br]Jordan- not to be mean but the evo is not available in the U.S. yet. and also EVO do you live in the U.S.?
Yeah, I know.  I doubt they'll ever bring it here.  :(
 
Hey guys I drive a 93 GMC Sonoma with the 4.3 Liter.  Specs say 190hp but I'm pushing around 220 with a custom cold air intake and air filter.  I have over $2000 in a system that includes infinity kappa plates, 2 amps, 2 fosgate subs, and the top of the line Panasonic deck.  
 
With unlimited funds I would probably have to buy a 97 Supra RZ Twin Turbo (your dad's killin my ego right now 93 SHO) with of course a body kit, cold air intake, NOS, black paint job with 18 rims and an orange interior, etc.........  I also wouldn't mind having a 67 427 Shelby Cobra but I just have to have the whine of turbo.
 
What is it with all the imports, we need to drive more american muscle.

I drive a 93 camaro Z28, LT1 6 speed manual.  At the drag strip i hold a wheelie past the 60 foot mark and run 9.87sec at 139mph.  Daily driven and get 22mpg.
And have a 187mph top speed(that is what i have gotten it to).

My mods are extensive, i will list a few of the bigger ones.

1. LT1 bored 30 over with a 400 crank(383 stroker)
2. CC306 cam(crane cams) Roller rockers, roller lifters
3. AFR stage 3 LT4 heads
4. Hooker LTs headers
5. 11-1 compression ratio
6. complete Holley Aniallator ignition
7. 225 hp shot of NOS (wet, direct port injetion set up)
8. LT4 intake with Port, Polish, Portmatched to heads
9. HEAVY duty custom, and aftermarket front end and suspention, and skid plates(to help ease the front end down on those hard nose up launches.
10. Custom Strange 12 bolt rear end with 3.42 gears with detroit locker installed

There is WAY more to list, i can list it if you want me to.  I am guessing around 700 hp with the NOS.

Its fun to pull up beside a car that wants to race, and look at them while you pop the clutch and ride a 3 foot wheelie past them.

And still out corner a stock 2000 ss camaro, when i put street tires on.

Dont ask me how much i have in it (if you dont want to see a grown man cry):)

And im only 19;)
 
Yay boy.  Another hot rodder.  I like those.  Yeah, its nice to blow the doors off the competition, but with a wheelie????  Id have to crawl in a hole after being defeated with a wheelie.  LOL
Nice to meet ya man,  and your only 19????  Too cool.  
Drive that thing safely.  Got any pics???
Nice wheels ppl.  Im very impressed with this post and the rides ppl have.  Keep up the performance all.  
slow cars

Yep, ive got some pics of my car before i did much modifications. I havent gotten the most recent ones developed yet.

I still need to figure out how to upload them to a server so i can post them on the site.  By the way have you tried the NEW code that i made?

There is a thread about it.
 
Yeah, Screamer Id like to see whats been done to the ride youve got.  If you had a website, Id link you on mine.

My partner's car is a '95 Mini Cooper 1.3i,

Currently getting the treatment at our local mini specialist.

Stage 3 engine conversion underway (should give a 50% power hike), some restoration and a total body respray.

Should be ready middle to late August, naturally not in the major league but should give some surprises at the traffic light grand prix ....
