2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser customized to look more retro [OC] [3263x1839 px] by Roadman90in carporn

I take it you look at an NSX and say, meh, still a Honda? This PT isn't that bad.

Gotta love them multi piston calipers. Do they have two piece rotors as well?

You can always tell when someone has Brembos because they're never afraid to make sure you're aware.

I see your 5.0 and raise you a non Brembo equipped Miata at the Dragon! by TheREALKilljoyin cars

You should, they really clean the front ends up and give it a more modern look.

When ever nice cars park next to me I like to think it's on purpose and not just the only available spot.

My Volvo 850, also my first car. Thought I'd post it here. by Catalyst30in Volvo

[–]mrtuckins 0 points1 point ago

I love red Volvos. Especially the wagons, they remind me of little fire trucks.

My Volvo 850 recently died but not before i took this out of it by natedawg144in Volvo

Every car enthusiast should have a car seat in their room.

Got a new wagon. It's pretty fast... by sexual_chocolatein cars

[–]mrtuckins 1 point2 points ago

No its not that easy. Would take a bit more then that to hit 800. The zl1 which has the same motor and probably the same blower Made 700 something with a few supporting mods http://i.autoblog.com/2012/05/02/lingenfelter-camaro-zl1-tops-200-mph/ but it didnt take much. Sorry on the mobile and cant go into huge detail. 800 would deff take a little more work.

As a 2x turbo wagon owner i can say your absolutely right. No one expects the wagon.

I'm sure a tune would do wonders but I'm trying hard to just hold out for a turbo tuner but we will see. I added you guys on FB so I'll be in the know, like what you have posted so far. Cheers

Glad you like it! i have NA cams in my t5. I wouldnt really recommend them unless your doing something bigger then the 18t. zero low end power isn't much fun. I would highly suggest the kw's how ever. Running v3's, bigger sways tki end links etc on 17 in pegs this thing is flat through the corners. You would not be dissapointed. Any chance your going to Carlisle later this month? Im sure itd be a far drive. Wouldnt mind having another redditor/saffron owner to park with!

Okay i was going on the wrong track earlier. 870 is just a way to refer to the first gen v70's (98-00). Just makes it easier to tell the original apart from the newer years.

That make more sense now?

[–]mrtuckins 0 points1 point ago

The 1998 v/c/s70 were very similar to the 850's. When i get a little extra time later ill go into more detail.

[–]mrtuckins 2 points3 points ago

Looks fun! Happy to see another 870 owner. Have you done much to your saff? I just picked up one my self a month or so ago.

This has been my background for the last 3 months. Enjoy! by two-gun-kidin wallpaper

As a Volvo enthusiast I envy you ever so much. Enjoy it to it's fullest specially when it's being paid out of someone else's pocket.

Hey r/cars my good (car loving) friend was dumped by his long term girlfriend last weekend. He has been looking to buy a new Jetta GLI, but given his new situation I'm trying to convince him to get something more exciting, what do you in your ultimate wisdom suggest? by justlookbelowin cars

[–]mrtuckins 2 points3 points ago

Mustangs, cool but very unpractical. GTI has the same motor and probably only slightly faster. A speed 3 would be a nice choice though. Pretty much the same price as a GLI but with an extra 63 horsies.

For a little extra money he could have himself a new BRZ or WRX too.

Op it might help if you gave us a little more information. Price range, sedan/wagon/hatch/coupe, manual a must or no?

What do you guys think of my new car? Well, new to me. 09 Accord V6 6-speed by Iamthetophergopherin cars

[–]mrtuckins 1 point2 points ago

Would never own a two door 8th gen Si because they are too girly/childish. But this is a whole different story much more grown up and meaner. Love your new car, good luck!
