Got a 1997 Mercedes C250 Turbodiesel Elegance Auto here.
An old'n but a good'n. Has a full de-catted Powerflow S/S exhaust and an Upsolute chip. I estimate its putting out around 180PS. Makes for a nice stealth car! ;)
Nice Infiniti there PsYkHoTiK :up: GazC, Merc's are good cars to drive. Our family had a old (1988) Mercedes Benz 320TD estate and though it was a very old car it still drove very well.
Bought a new car thursday.
Ford Focus 1.8 TDCI
85KW - 115 pk

Going to be selling very quick here for either Audi S4/RS4 or Lexus GS450h (hippie Fiancee likes the environment :()

Yea, the GS 450h is however the fastest GS (5.2s 0-60mph with 340hp as opposed the the GS430's 5.7s and 290hp) among the lineup. Now thats my kinda hybrid. :p
That's insane for a hybrid. I thought it was a heavy car., doesn't seem like it.
:eek: Freaking sweet!!
'98 Toyota Avalon XLS. 3L V6 so it manages on the highway. *Shrug*
The gas mileage blows though, 19-20 City -_-. Have to replace the O2 sensor b.s. soon though, with light coming on and off. I'm sure some of you guys know what I'm talking about lol.
do i spy a 350z/g35 behind that little bubble of evo?
Hehehe it looks like a Black 350Z in the Garage ^^Quote:

Don't feel bad, My Dad liked Fords, Recently back in October 2006 I bought My latest Car, Yep It's a NEW Ford Mustang GT(Or rather It will still be New for a while longer as It doesn't have even 5500 miles on the Odometer yet), Here's an old Pic and maybe a new one or two:Quote:

once it's got 100 miles on it, it goes to the used car lot at the dealership fyi.
nice car, although that new green aint exactly my favorite color, i like the forest green of the 99-04 models.
w00t w00t! I want a Taurus (not a wagon) for my first car, rofl. Call me weird but you can get a newer one (1998+, loaded) for under $4k. Sometimes you even find a 2001 for ~$4k, which is about what I have to spend.Quote:

According to state law in California It can't be called used until It has no less than 7,500 miles on the odometer. In any case It wasn't My first choice as to color, I had three choices, Light Blue, Silver and Green, The 1st one was going into a dealers newspaper ad, So the 1st one was out, The 2nd one had some sort of interior damage and so I couldn't get that one, So Green was what I ended up with and I get lots of compliments on It, It has been slightly modded too, A clear 3M nose bra that goes through car washes just fine was added, Sequential taillights and LoJack was added to the stock Alarm system, The Car is loaded and was before I added what I did. I don't get the greatest mileage at 18.3mpg, But I don't drive a lot and I like a medium sized car with a bit of punch, It's cheap to insure for Me at $184.40 a year(10 payments of about $18.44), But I'm 47 and have an excellent driving record, Besides It's paid for as I own It outright(No Lienholders). :DQuote:

too hi pitched...
definantly a nice car though
Gamer67,
The bottom line is... what sort of torque do you generate and how much turbo boost? what's the power output? what sort of performance figures.. ?
Ok, here are a few dyno sheets done last year.Quote:

There were signs that something was not right at the time due to some high EGT's. I was able to control the EGT's a bit for the runs using the water/meth injection system that I have. It was not until a few days later when we pressure tested the intake system that we found the leaky seal. You can see the car was having trouble holding the correct boost pressure in one of the graphs.
That being said It still made some respectable figures. All runs were done on premium pump gas (98 ron which if memory serves me correctly is the equivalent of 89 ron in the States) and max boost was only set to 1.4 bar.
I do not have the Tq sheet for these runs, I do have a Tq sheet for a 1.2 bar run though if you want to see that.

Awesome Supra you got there buddy! 621 HP ain't bad!
Thanks Bud ;)
And your sound is nice too...it's not a V8 so don't let it sound like one...
Nice power band! Certainly have my stock car beat. Congratulations!
How long will this last? Does tuning reduce the lifespan of the engine a lot or?
Gamer! Thats one of the nicest Supra's I seen. It beats the schitt out of all the Muppet Mobiles, and Skanger bangers that you and I see so much on our roads nowadays. Well done!
It is the same as overclocking your computer. Just a bit more complicated and much more expensive.Quote:

Nice cameras too, Canon 1D, Nikon D70.
I can't wait to post new pics of mine. It's in the shop right now getting some work done...but its not really near completion.
Pic... finally.
1979 Mercury Bobcat (2.3L I-4) with 285/75/16's is just a joke for a toughtruck competition (I won $200)... to the left is my 1994 GMC Yukon.. also on 285/75/16's ;)
hows the offroading capability of the olds?
Gamer67, that is one nice Supra you got there :up:
Surprisingly well considering it has stock gears (really tall with the 285/75/16's) and 44hp at best :rofl:Quote:

Well I can't drive it yet as I'm to young, but a 1987 Ford Ranger XLT w/2.9V6 and a 4 speed manual tranny w/OD, possibly blown clutch, leaking brake booster, and the engine runs like garbage. Plan to have it working fine by the end of the year tho ;)

07 mazda 3 i sport sedan. Rolling on some pimp azz 15s driven by a super powerful 2.0L 148hp 4 banger with a 4 speed slotomatic transmission with :banana::banana::banana::banana::banana:-shift (aka "tiptronic" or whatever the mazda variant is)
At least it's not a civic DX or corolla like my parents tried to get me :stick:
Whatever you do, don't get a REALLY NICE car for your FIRST car .. I think your parents made a very wise choice .. I've seen worst :P. Nice car though!
I got a pretty nice car for my first ... 2001 3.2TL .. I wasn't responsible with it at all .. constantly speeding ... I was too confident with it.
Other than that, I didn't get into any accidents / speeding tickets. The the car was well taken care of in terms of maintenance.
Not everyone is retarded and speeds buddy.
My parents didn't want me to get a WRX or even a 5 speed mazda 3 because it would be "dangerous" for me to be driving manual for my first car
so what did they do?
They got me a car that has awful side impact ratings, no side airbags, and no ABS. Not such a wise choice in my opinion. Buy me something MORE dangerous KNOWING that I will sell it as soon as I possibly can.
^It's actually safer to get a manual as a first car; it forces you to pay attention to driving.
like my parents would listen to logic. I pointed that out and they basically said "bull :banana::banana::banana::banana:, you'll be distracted shifting. and you'll hate having to shift to drive in a few months and sell the car" The only thing I really wanted in a car and I couldn't get it :(Quote:

No abs? All Mazda 3's that are sold here have abs on standard. About the safety, I think that car is much more safer compared to some 10 years older car (bigger or smaller). I wouldn't have complained if my parents had bought me a brand new car...Quote:

It just pisses me off to know I could have had a car I actually wanted, that is better in every aspect aside from being used, for less money :stick: Now if it were 5 speed I'd love the car to death, but it's not. This is like having a nice computer built on an INTEL OEM motherboard that's BIOS locked.Quote:

You caneasily work an automatic, and if you know how to use it, an automatic is actually faster for lap times. Stop complaining. Your parents got you a car. That's better than those with no car.
I drive a Opel Corsa C 1,2 Twinport. :)

You're entitled to your opinion about it being a rebadged accord, but it sure looks fantastic. Try paying insurance on a Type-S.
I wouldn't doubt that 90%+ of 16 - 21 year old drivers speed or have sped in the past. I love how you say "Oh well I know of a few people blah blah", real credible lol.
I consider my 2004 TL very luxurious and it sure doesn't look like an Accord.
Ha, yea I did. I'll get pics soon. Busy week, class starts, still moving in and trying to get plates for the damn thing.Quote:
