Members Car History

Well a few posts have got me thinking about my veloved chariots,

 

Age 17;

 

1st car a Seat Ibiza 1.5 with a Porsche system engine, wow I thought I was the *****cks, wait for it.........three spokes!! OMG!! a big zorst and a 15 inch jamo in the boot with a dodgy german graphic equalizer flashy light amp thing

 

2nd car a Onion Ghia, fitted a full RS kit, had piper cams fitted, lightened flywheel so much stuff done to the engine, that infact, it ran worse than ever before, occasionaly would keep up with my friends, hanging S1 RST, but most of the time would splutter and die I briefly bought a R5GTT which I liked for its go kart ability, I didnt like the fact with more than two people in, it would turn into a steaming turb and you could be overtaken by fiat pandas.

 

3rd car R21 Turbo, heres the piccies

Man had it fully resprayed, spent enough money with prima racing to open a shop, pitty I forgot about the wheels and left 15 inchers on it lol mind you went like stink 252bhp at the time anf FWD :eek: torque steer anyone?? kept this little guy for three whole years the longest record to date!!!! the things we do when we are young! This car has to win the smallest wheels ever on the biggest car lmfao.

 

Age 19;

 

3rd car Cavalier 4x4 GSI2000 not much to say other than very comfy, sounded like a angry wasp wish id never changed the zorst it was embarasing rattly noise, biggest mistake of my life as the R21 was soooo much better beleive it or not. Lowered usual crappy mods, had some bits done at power station in cheltenham who ripped me off on 320.00 for a chip!!! had a staggering 186bhp so I dropped fooking shit loads from the reno, couldn;t stand having a normaly aspirated car.

 

4th car Nissan 200SX, face lift model, very nice, bought a shit sounding lemans motorsport blow off valve for it and regretted it from day one, it is by far the worst sounding and made peice of shit ever, do NOT buy one!!! did the usual mods.

 

5th Car Mondeo 2.5v6 st24, not a bad motor, but I got bored and wanted to get a turbo again.

 

Age 20:

 

R21 Turbo (again!!!!);

Still beleive it or not, nothing could satisfy the performance and fun of my prev r21 turbo, so I bought another, lmfao, this time I thought i'd do it properly (well for a R21 anyway), 276bhp despite changing nearly eveything on the ****ing car! still, for some reason the torque was was close to the bho figure, meaning the car would spin all the way to third gear. The car was running 20psi for a good length of time, my tron like gear changes bent and buckled various selector rods whilst the awesome pressure kept continuosly blowing off hoses, I spent more times on the side of the road with the bonnet up than any other car, but would I change it? would I fook. Never had one car beat me in a race in the dry. I miss this car.

 

Age 21

 

Nissan 200sx S14, wanted another taste of Jap RWD, as frying front tyres and getting no grip 80% of the time started to get tedious. Owned this car four three months, before deciding I prefered my prev S13 and so

 

Nissan 200sx S13 (pre facelift) some of you know her, she started off a shed and blossomed into a beauty with several thousands pumped into her;

Not hugely powerful, but, 240bhp was more fun in this than any other car I'd driven.

 

Age 22

 

Well I was being a family man so bought ANOTHER modeo, ST24, seems like ill be having two of every car in my life for some odd reason!!!

Age 23

 

Nissan 300zx TT

 

And she's as she is now after a couple of years on her!!

 

I did have various other cars but these were the main ones that I hold as memerable,

 

So whats the cars that you loved / hated in your life that you've ownded?
