Dat gasstank

These cars look really cool. Never really heard of them before, but I think styling wise they look killer. Like a mix of a ae86 and a delorean, lol.

SP86 · 05-07-2013, 10:56 PM

Ahah. Yea it's definitely different. I have had instances with the car being called a DeLorean, Supra, even Ferrari lol.

By the way here's an old video or some spool'ish noise

She has a deeper tone now as this was before my exhaust was completed. (sorry for all the idle time.)
Hopefully I can get her running again shortly and get some better footage in.

AWESOME car! Seeing this brings back so many memories. I use to be totally obsessed with the DSM scene when I was a teenager. I remember Dave Buschur campaigning his Starion and whopping everyone!

SP86 · 12-20-2013, 01:14 AM

tis the season

SP86 · 01-12-2014, 12:51 AM

Here's a picture of it's present state...just got my rear 8's mounted so now she's running 8" wheels all around. Need spacers for the rear though as they are a little sucked in compared to the now flush front.

Really don't get why these cars ain't popular in Japan! Because direct competitors of the Starion like the RX7 FC have a huge following.

From my understanding they were even more rare in Japan. They were for the states. .I'm not sure why their so exclusive. . I can say you do have to do everything yourself, no one knows about them..there are no parts anymore, pretty much have to adapt things from other models and they are quirky lol. Which is probably a turn off for allot. I love them for that though

JDLAutoDesign · 02-02-2014, 12:14 AM

Hey the whole reason why we make parts was the lack of parts for my own car

Carlysh · 02-02-2014, 01:04 AM

Ohhh this car remind me of high school it was my first car and I love it, it was really good shape with ac and at 12 psi was a blast to drive, they were 3 in my house mine black, white, and built motor with a t-67 turbo on it.
