IOwnCalculus posted:Fourthgens are great Yeah agreed. Intact fourthgens are cool cars that make good noises, and busted fourthgens make other cars cool by donating the noise.

Jymmybob posted:I love weirding people out with the 968 lights especially since they almost look upright enough that people don't realize they're flip-ups. The conversions to 993 fixed lights are gorgeous although they need entire new fenders or carefully hacking together 993 and 968 fenders. I'm gonna need to see an example of 993 lights on a 968. Edit: googled it. Not sure how I feel about the results. https://rennlist.com/forums/968-forum/523665-various-new-968-products-turbo-rs-type-ii-wing-993-headlight-conversion.html DropShadow fucked around with this message at 03:05 on Jul 8, 2017 |

DropShadow posted:I'm gonna need to see an example of 993 lights on a 968. There's a few styles since only D9 made an actual kit with new bumpers and fenders so most ended up being custom versions with various success. I think this is one of the better ones though.

I'm with Team It Looks Better Original. That looks like a 944 and a TVR Chimaera had very strong feelings for one another.

Bape Culture posted:That'll do a burnout. Oh it does. Didn't realise how much of the tyres the Chaser (white) had eaten until I was selling it today. Holy gently caress, felt guilty (told the guy, though). New car is a 2000 JZX110. Exactly the same running gear as the Chaser. 1JZ+R154. Better interior is the only upgrade.

angryhampster posted:Nice! I was considering one of these for a while but ultimately went with a hatchback for child seat usage. How do you like it so far? I'm enjoying it. It's a good around town car and a phenomenal back road cruising car. As I learned today though, it is NOT a "go up 35 degree incline gravel roads" car. That was a good solid two minutes of the traction control light blinking on and off to get up about 80 feet of hill.

Thanks for the compliments, Im pretty happy with how it turned out. Definitely a 10 ft'er, I bought it off some guys who used it as a yard truck, pushing around cars that didnt run, etc, so it had a poo poo load of scratches, most buffed out abut a bunch are through the clear, you can see them in these pics. Texas truck, so no rust at all, but most of the flat surfaces have hosed up clearcoat that kinda of stuff. Also was probably broken into a million times lol, both handles show it and I had to put rods in the passenger door. Here are some pics from when I got it and one next to the fullsize I was driving. I wanted to try out an extra cab, lay the seat back a little. 4.3 Vortec CPI all power, limited slip actually works, good daily. Interior, needed Headliner heater core, turn signal switch, blend door motor, and a window motor. I ended up finding a nicer dash local, put in a new carpet, blazer buckets, and some charcoal colored switches/armrests for a little two tone look.    all done:  Other than that, cleaned out the EGR, runs mint, 146k, 3/4 drop, belltech SP shocks, late model mirrors and front bumper, molded steel pan, going for a 90's look  Ill edit in another pic after I clean it tomorrow, the wheels are p.dirty in those pics they pop when clean.

It's definitely no luxury car and the road noise can get really bad but the dampers are adjustable so in comfort mode it's pretty ok. R mode is quite bad. Any major surface imperfections jar you very hard.

Traded in my 2015 Silverado 5.3 for a 2017 LTZ z71 with the 6.2L. It sounds much better and is about 1.5 seconds faster to 60  The number of changes between 2 model years continues to surprise me. And yes, I appreciate the irony of a Z71 with 22" wheels
