Re: What's the fastest speed you've ever driven at?

Some stuff I did myself. I did a lot of cosmetic stuff myself like spoiler install, retrofitting new HID projectors, LED lighting, etc. However any main engine work I did not touch such as the turbo and what not. Too much risk.

No. The car was always a GTR but you could only buy one in the Japanese market. This is the first time a GTR Skyline is in the American market.

As far as your question about car modding, it depends. But without installation knowledge, time, and especially cash it is going to be extremely difficult. You also need plenty of patience and planning. The last thing you want is having your car gutted and finding out you can't afford to move on.

What kind of car do you plan on modding?

I really don't have anything in mind (except slight ideas) yet but eventually I'm going to try to build a monster out of something. I'm sort of still looking for things good for modding and so far I've been checking out the 350z, 240sx, Civic (older one), (If I ever get the money) Acura nsx, Honda s2000, Mazda rx7 twin turbo, Suburu Impreza, or a Lancer Evo. I'm pretty much addicted to imports and if I do start I'm just going to buy a car and figure out what I'm doing and stuff. It's probably going to be a few years before I get started though.

Quick story since it seems a lot of you guys have Subaru's.

My boss had a 05 WRX that went 0-60 in under 4 seconds anddid 1/4 in 10.13 or something like that. That thing was insane

2001 Suzuki GSF600s = 163 mph on a backroad near my home.

The stock engine is jetted with a micron pipe. I thought I was gonna die.

140 in my 2001 Acura CL-S a bunch of times...I know...I'm stupid!

Even stupider...163 in my friend's 1991 BMW M5 about 10 years ago on 90/94, here in Chicago...craziest experience OF MY LIFE! NEVER, will I do that again!

About 117 in 2003 Pontiac Grand AM GT. It was on a backroad straightaway.

You still have the 04 sti? Or did you get something else since then?

Yeah same car, I probably won't get anything else until this one is destroyed. Haha.

Here's a pic if you haven't seen it. There a carbon fiber trunk too that you can't see in the pic.

130...In a 1964 Monza Spider... I think ALL 4 tires left the pavement that car was EXTREMELY light

125 on the capital beltway heading toward the Woodrow Wilson bridge, I drive a 2005 Subaru Legacy, the funny thing is that a newer Legacy went flying past me like I was standing still. Subarus rule.

Sweet. I love the STi's. Just not a practical car for me any longer. I've thought about getting a used one, just to have fun in, so maybe something I will do in the next year or so.

Re: What's the fastest speed you've ever driven at?

I'm leaning towards getting a WRX around July

Only problem is I refuse to get it in automatic (again). It's time for me to buckle down and learn stick I'm just going to have to bum off of some friends until I get good

Or I'll just be a pansy and stay with auto

Re: What's the fastest speed you've ever driven at?

We don't have a car. I used to drive on my mom's Daihatsu, but when I moved to live with my wife (then girlfriend) I stopped borrowing my mom's car, obviously. So I've been driving here and there, but we take buses these days, becuase we try to save some money. A car? probably next year...
