Default Well the R is gone.......

Thank god I don't mean stolen...but it was sold, the buyer picks it up next weekend....I will miss it, although I'm sure some of you folks are glad I ditched it (Ross), but trust me I didn't ditch it bc I wanted to...parents were tired of the problems, so here are the new plans for my car(s)
My daily driver will either be a toyota corolla, mazda protege5, or mitsu lancer OZ
My other car street/strip DRAG car will be a 92 civic hatchback with a fully built gsr turbo motor in it estimated at 400-500whp depending on what octane gas.....
I'll stop in the ITR forum from time to time but most of you folks will be happy that I don't waste anymore of your precious bandwith

I don't think you are going to get a Protege5 for $13k out the door...

Sorry to hear you sold your car Keith, I was looking forward to the turbo setup you were going to build... Make sure you keep me updated on the hatchback...

Did I miss something? You were building up your car and building up your car, posted some dyno plots, wern't happy with the NA setup, and now you are selling it - all in the matter of a few weeks...

What happened?

Get the 7th gen Civic. At least it'll make a decent looking beater.

well, a friend of mine had his gsr stolen and stripped, and I know he was building my exact setup so I figured I'd help him out and sold it to him cheap...now I can build a turbo car and have a daily driver just in case I think it was a smart move personally and I helped a friend in need

what about the new tiburon? i may handle like a pig but it looks cool; certainly better than visual diarhea known as the previous tiburons.
for your budget, i'd go for an oldskool subaru 2.5 rs.

I think you made the right decision, to be honest. I'm not glad you sold it per se...but I think what you're doing fits your situation a bit better.

I've driven all of those and the only one I'd even consider is the PR5.. I want a protege5 in fact and after I pay off a good bit of my debt I'm going to get one most likely.. fun as **** to drive. (although slow)

Sometimes that's the best, though. Stock slibbic VX's and old Volvo 240's come to mind. Slow as dirt, but crazy fun to drive.


Pat, who wants to stop by the Mazduh dealer and check out a P5.
