Looks like a lot of research and work has gone into that!

Quite quick and likes to drink?

[Bright Halo]

Thanks for sharing.

Ahh man, this has made me miss my evo even more.. What a beauty she is. Ive been perusing the classifieds for another vi but not sure i want to get rid of the v8 just yet. I miss the way it just stuck to the road, had supple yet taught suspension and felt fast as hell with 360 brake, let alone 560 !! The prices of low mile good condition vi's is up, as much as 25k for mint examples, to think i sold mine for 7 in 2008 with only 60k miles on it.

[Butter Face]

That, sir, is absolutely stunning. Bravo.

[wpc692]

[Gary29]

[snoopy25]

[Tickle]

I don't like turbocharged Japanese stuff.

I'm very happy to make an exception for this though!
