The car was meant to be stock when we bought it but I had parts left over from my car and got really good deals on the rest. I simply can't leave a car alone it must be modded. It will be oil sprayed and driven on nice winter days. Its only lowered 1" so it should be OK. I love driving the t25 car around town it builds boost "now". For me I enjoy driving that car over my 95 around town as its quiet and has enough power to zip around and beat up on other so called modded cars.

Here's my winter beast. Runs a 12.43 @ 111.

I've swapped out the Ground Controls for stock springs to give me some more ground clearance for the snow, they're a bit harsh with the Koni Yellows... It just rolled 64,000 km.

one day you guys will regret it.
when these cars are collectors and your precious has cancer in all those nooks that you cant get at with a unibody car.
you will cry.
I dont see the point in putting money into something that you intentionally make rot.

buat anyways, nice cars im jealous laugh

I wonder sometimes. I know of few that would look at, say, a 40 year old mint 1G DSM the same way people feel about cars from the early part of the 1900's. They just seemed to have more...soul, or something.

The same way not many newer comics (<1970) have the same value as ones from before. What's different about them except for the way people 'feel' about them?

Hey Rob, you can clean that beater by just rubbing it with some snow. That's what I do with mine:

My wife to be and I just moved to Dundas (close to Ancaster/Hamilton) and we drive together to work in Mississauga. So when fuel went way up we had to get a car that would cost very little to drive 150km per day. And the Prius does just that. The 45L tank will last us about 7 days of driving to work.

Just need to put the winter tires on soon and we'll be set.
