aka subaru’s, I like the looks of the 2000 and older impreza’s better then the 2001-2003’s and the 2004+’s still cost too much…… but I want the 2.5liter motor which came in the 2.5 rs (because I can’t afford the wrx turbo’s)… but I want a 4dr… which they sold…but only for one year … 2000.
woe is me….. yada yada yada
here’s a cool pic of a 99 2.5rs impreza
ok so in a last ditch effort to smack myself into actually posting here are some neat pictures of mk2 (82-86) supra from the land of “pan”….. ja-pan … wow ugh… bad joke…. kill me please…
hell I’m sorry for this entire post
but anyway, supra’s are cool especially old ones.
they had a 2.8L straight 6, with multipoint fuel injection, dohc, 4 wheel disc’s, a limited slip differential, rear wheel drive with an independent rear suspension, all power windows, locks, cruise, sunroof, and climate control…. and it all worked well.
and here’s one I photoshopped and long time ago…. like 2001?ish
Sorry peoples, I have been busy lately and haven’t had time for new posts. Hopefully some will be coming soon.
So my friend since I was 3 years old made the trip down to the japanese classic car show (JCCS) this year, even though his engine install was just finished the day they left and the car wasn’t completely ready for the show.
here’s the pics he sent me.
from what i can remember about the engine swap is that it’s a 7MGTE bottom end (mostly for the displacement and piston oil squirters.. and a few other bits) with the 5MGE pistons and head, therefore making it a 6MGE and the only real 6M part is the crank pulley. also worth noting is the 1uz throttle body and intake manifold that are all ceramic coated…
some of my info may be bad and seamus will most likely correct me.
from left to right here’s Pete’s 76? celica with a 7MGE motor (3L straight 6), steve’s ae86 corolla with a 1UZ (4L V8 from a lexus ls400), and seamus’s supra with the custom built 6M all on their way down from Canada to LA
seamus’s supra again, looking good without the side moldings.
and seamus’s 6M looking better then any 12-valve M series ever has.
first of all this is DKer Pete’s car! it got quite a bit of attention, I have found many pics of it online… be proud Pete
this so far is the only Pic of seamus’s supra i can find… i can tell because the exhaust tips and the white hood
I love these old landcruiser wagons… mostly because in Canada we got the Hino diesel with them.
Thanks to japanese nostalgic car, motormavens, toygarage, SpeedHunters and for the pictures
I have absolutely no idea why i didn’t do this before…. all I had to do was click a button and now you can just click the pic to see a better less compressed version.
Thanks, Josh
once again less talk more pics… but i do want to say that the datsun guys really brought their game to the show this year.
Thanks to toygarage, SpeedHunters and of course The Chronicles for the pictures
some nice stuff here…. but less talk and more pics
Thanks to SpeedHunters for the last pic and toygarage on flickr for the rest
These are the first pics I’ve seen yet of the JCCS meet and they are small and are rather cool…. a slightly “ratted” 240z that is completely tanked and is fully flush with those large flares.
Thanks to Dsalni’s Blog for the phone pics
I was checking out DORI-KAZE when i came across some event pics of the “captital drift season finale” in victoria by member “666″ and the pictures are actually really good and so are the cars. so here they are.
looking at these pics proves that toyota certainly peaked in the late 80’s
