  1. John - Great vids....I loved them! Keep them coming...love the sound of that RB running through the gears...simply incredible. Yasin
  2. Hi Guys thanks for all the great comments and feedback. I had a very rough year last year and I prayed that 2005 would be much better - IT IS! So yes it was an impulse buy but gosh what a great impluse...LOL! Tim next time I come to SoCal the drinks are on me! The Corolla believe it or not was an amazing driver's car, these cars used rule all the tracks in Japan, you guys that know your Japanese cars can attest to that. My car with the JDM 20V engine and 4 throttle bodies was just incredible, infact a little scarry as it came onto full boost. I am going to really enjoy this car just as much as I enjoy my ZXT. More updates to come. Yasin
  3. I went to San Diego on business recently and after having one too many cocktails wondered into a high end dealership and could not walk away from this car, it was calling "Yasin..take me home...take me home"...so that's what I did...LOL: I shelled out some decent $$ for it, but its an ultra clean (not a door ding on it) 2 owner car with just a hair over 56,000miles on the clock, always lived in a garage under a cover. Bone stock and never been messed with - which was appealing. Its an '89 model (last model for this body style), so has the hydraulic 5speed and ultra rare G50/50 LSD transaxle, previous models were the notchy 4 speed cable linkage!! After owning it for 1 week, I have already bought a larger turbo (the biggest one I can run with the Bosch CIS), stainless steel racing headers with a 3" stainless exhaust and a 46mm TiAL wastegate set at 14.5psi. That should take me to around 410hp. Will have the install complete next weekend. I always wanted one of these 911 Turbos since a snot nosed kid living in England in the '70 and early '80s feels weird to see it in my garage after so many years of yearning for one. To buy this car I had to sell my beloved '85 Turbo AE86 Corolla GT-S, which was a painful 3year build. In its last iteration this Corolla laid down 286hp on the dyno all from 1.6L. I was able to sell my Corolla for just under $20G incl. the spare parts, here is the car a day before it went away..I'll miss it, not many people could hang with me on the street in this 2180lb car and I have taken down some big game with this car. Yes that is a full carbon fiber front end custom made for me, big Wilwoods, Corbeau seats, full Autometer gauges, T3T4 turbo, custom made IC, 4 throttle bodies etc etc: Thought I would share! Yasin
  4. Mar - Do you still want me to snap pics of my piping for you? Let me know as I will be working on the car today (in between planting flowers in my front yard...LOL!) Yasin
  5. On my SFP header I had to belt sand down the flange as it was warped (JeffP had the same problem too) and then had the entire thing coated by Jet-Hot, I will be trial fitting it to a spare P90 I have soon and will post pics. Yasin
  6. I believe you are correct sir....L28ET are 210s
  7. I was in on that SFP header Group Buy (2+ years ago)...I can take pics of the header for you...its still sitting in a damn box in my garage! I need to resurect my "To Do" list for the car! Yasin
  8. Always loved your car!!! Glad you have a site put together, its now in my favorites. Yasin
  9. Nice kit....but those rotors need to be at least 11.5" diameter...a 10" rotor is not cutting it. Yasin
  10. Does not say if it has the 22R in it? The Starion Wheels look sweet. Yasin
  11. Absolutely awesome find Mikew. Trip down memory lane there! Love this: Yasin
  12. Beautiful work...very stealth! Yasin
  13. LOL...that made my morning! The seller wants almost $20G US...that's alot for cheese and bondo Yasin
  14. Yes that is a magnificent car and as Mike identified it has Work 01s on it. Clean...low and menacing....just the way I like it. Yasin
  15. That looks great. Gabe is a great guy! Glad he was able to look after you. Pity no more pics of Ashley! Yasin
  16. Great post Chef! 501@1.5bar....cripes....I would love that... Yasin
  17. To get back to that seller SSautochrome or whatever his name is, are their parts realy cheap and crappy? As they look very high quality, nice welds, thick flanges, nice bends? How do they do it? Stuck on this one! Yasin
  18. I am 100% sure this car is driven on the street...but obviously with the boost turned way back down, timing turned up a bit for streetability and pump gas. Maybe even runs a smaller turbo on the street. Yasin
  19. Absolutely absoultey beautiful my friend! I am now this color with envy: Yasin
  20. OK This is ridiculous: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=5357&item=4551373532&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW $50grand for a pacer? Who cares if its in Germany! Yasin
  21. Awesome deal, if I had the space I would do it! Regardless of where I had to go to pick them up, someone on here jump on this!: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4550527529&category=6187 Yasin
  22. That gave me a morning smile...I need that...thanks Mat Yasin
  23. I can get them all day long (low mileage & smooth shifting too) here in Colorado for around $100-$115 - also come with a 30day warranty. Yasin
  24. He needs a humbling session...I vote him for the President of this club: Yasin
