Post Pictures Of Your Previous Toy

[Jedi1]

The Mini was sold to make room in the garage for the FRS. Trophied at the National Championships in 2011 and Won a Tour in that car along with a few other podiums. We MISS the MINI!!!!

The Camaro is in the process of being repowered and will be sporting 100 more HP and Torque for the 2013 season.

The Lorinser 190e has gotten fresh paint, suspension and anything else needed to drive it whenever we want next year. Next step? Something with 16 valvees and ITB's shall be transplanted very SOON!

The simulators are SimCraft APEX3's. Last gen cockpit, but they feel so much like a car I consider them worthy of being listed as cars!

1995 Carver 310 Express powered by twin Crusader 350 c.i. engines (~600hp):





This particular boat served as my home for a few years, and helped me hone my engine maintenance swills. I sold it about a year ago to make a down payment on my current house.

Awesome M3 Chutrain and a very impressive racing sim Jedi1!

^ Had an 86 944 NA for a year during my college years. Such a fantastic car and certainly turned a few heads. The styling never gets old but I am not sure I would buy another.

Hmmm - where do I start Everything started with 6Gen Celica - had one ST (1.8 motor) and later I imported SSIII From Japan... Did LHD conversion - played with it for a bit and sold it...



Got my self into JDM import - and this was obsession At one point in my life - my yard was looking like this:




Legacy GT Spec.B was my daily, while White STi Spec-C Type RA (one out of 350 ever made) was weekend toy GC8 Type RA with 22b exterior - was a crazy mistake I did buying And ver.6 Yellow GC8 was a blast in winter ... Wife and I where driving this bad boy from US converted fully to JDM bB replica with Garson kit and other crazy stuff for almost 3 years (one of the longest kept cars ever in my life )




Until i managed to get back to AWD family once again - with this Legacy Diesel converted to look like legacy STi



Year later - got my self another rarity - Forester STi - did a LHD conversion on it, drove it for a while - and understood that its no go (especially after few STi's that i had )



And had this one as my Oldschool toy:



On the side note - i was building this one:



But sold it unfinished to get the FRS... That's the step i MIGHT regret one day - but for now - FRS is a blast

But my Yard is still looking like this day after day



Thanks god that i have a understanding wife, and that she deals with my obsession with cars............. Because now i bought Legacy Spec.B WR-Limited And want to keep it as daily

Current "toy" :P

[PhastekSport]

Still trying to decide if I want to hold on to this one.

Other options will be pouring money into the FR-S or perhaps getting a 2.0L Ecoboost Ford Fusion with AWD.

2010 Cobalt SS turbocharged with GM Stage 1 upgrade, K&N drop in air filter, shorty antenna, O.Z. Ultraleggera, and 25% tint all around, excluding front windshield


When I first got it:










Had the rims powder coated gloss black:


The day I upgraded (at least in my opinion ):

^ Definitely a wise upgrade, although the SS models are a great bang for your buck.

Would have been better if mine had come with LSD. I was warned about torque steer in a high powered, turbo'd FWD platform, but it didn't show it's ugly head until after I got the power upgrade

But yea, bang for buck, it's hard to beat. Great handling and pickup. Engine takes mods gracefully and is easily capable of outputting close to 400 WHP with ease. Not going to lie, there are days where I really miss boost when I'm trying to pass people on the highway with ease.

Good points. I have heard of a few of these being competitive in some autocross events.

If you miss the boost I can only think of one thing to do....
