Nice ride man, I wanted a RX-8 so bad especially since my bro had a RX-7 putting out 400+ HP and those things are so damn nimble plus they rev to like 182965 RPM. But after tons of research found out that RX-8's are maintenance whores. Gotta top of the oil that the rotary engine burns every month, engine is only guaranteed to last what 125k miles? Mazda over-rating the power output of the engine and then bending over backwards to customers who felt ripped off etc.

I'll post a pic of my brothers R32.


Oooh, love R32´s! (well Skylines in general, but the R32 may be my favourite Smile)

And i´d also like to see the RX-7 your bro had, really nice cars. I also know a guy with a RX-7, here´s some pics Smile

And it´s NOT painted like this now, it was repainted just a couple of weeks ago, don´t have any new pics though.

I need some lowering, and maybe some 18".
17" looks kinda small.

I guess you´re just joking around, but what´s wrong with liking cars eh? Smile

Buying a super-mega PC for 2500 dollars isn´t the same thing? Razz

Where do you live???? In the UK Personalised plates have nothing to do with Chavs... Plus the only souped up cars over here that Chavs drive realy are Vauxhal Novas, Vauxhal Corsa or Fiestas.... you wont see a chav in a BMW or Mercedes... A modified car doesnt mean the driver is a chav (unless the car is a Nova, Corsa or fiesta Wink )

They are Team Dynamic Mirage wheels

Golf R32's are Very nice but the gears just dont seem to last very long untill you have to change... BMW M3 is better in my opinion for speed + Acceleration, but still I would have a R32 as they look amazing Smile

LoL I should have specified, my bro has a VW R32, you know the all wheel drive V6 Turbo. I'll post some pics of it really soon. There is a guy up my street who imported a R33 Skyline and it's righthand drive, he drives it really really late at night and if your around at those times you can catch a glimpse of him flying through the streets.

It's funny most of the cops know about the pedigree of his car and don't even pull him over or impound the car, pretty cool if you ask me.

Yeah i'll dig around for some pics of my bro's RX-7, the ones you posted above....I dunno what that guy was thinking with the paint job LoL! I really do hope he changed it! Laughing

FUCK YEAH IT'S A MOTHERFUCKING AVEO!!! Razz

lol ... it's a 2004 ... I was still in school at the time, and my old car (1991 prelude that cost me $750) broke down. I had no money for a new car, but I was able to lease this one for $0 down, $0 first month payment, 0.9% lease rate ... comes to $275/month with taxes, warranty etc. Much more affordable than buying a new $1-3K shitbox, although now that I live downtown in the city I barely drive the thing. Oh well, lease is up in 1 1/2 years so I'll get something new again then, although will probably buy this time.

It's a decent car ... bigger than you'd expect ... but the 1.4L engine in it is fucking gutless.

Ooh Very Happy Well those are nice aswell Smile

Yeah, all Skylines are right-hand drive (though there are people who have left-hand converted their Skylines) since they were never really sold outside Japan..

That is really cool, we do have some nice cops here too, some of ´em pull nice cars over just to get a closer look at them Wink

Haha yeah, it was painted like that when he bought it.. Hope to get some new pics of it repainted soon Very Happy

Yeah, but modern engines are way more efficient, thus they don´t need large displacement Smile
