Skylines other than the r32s imported back in the 90s by that company Motor-Ex are illegal. No matter if its a GTS GTT or GTR. Skykine R32s-R34s are on the federal banned vehicle list. The company stopped making vehicles compliant and instead just sold them straight up.

Don't know how true this is in your side of the pond, but over hear the only time it makes sense to buy a diesel is if you can get the car for tbe same or cheaper cost of a petrol motor. The amount it costs to step up to a tdi golf over a petrol golf state side is so much that it takes several years to make the cost equivalence up.

Those bumpers have saved my car from the junkyard on more than one occasion! I think they look original, like the rest of the car which is really cool.

And I only have a few grand across my 4 cars I don't just buy I wait for a good deal.

Us bumpers would have save the blue car from this.

Still not running, but close!

Picked up a second one It is fully loaded except sunroof. Factory radio, factory AC, factory power steering, deluxe trim, larger rear drums, rear wiper and extreme undercoating lol. 49,000 miles and I'm the second owner! Currently not running, debating flipping it or keeping it.

These pics are before I washed it



I wish it was blue/gray interior like my other one.

Slight update: My mom won a free coilover kit for her B6 so time to slam it! lol

Reading these comments make me realize how pathetic the human race has become lol. Just because one news channel shows a different view than all other mainstream media doesn't mean it is lies or crazy people.

Really media is bad no matter who or what presents it. Media can twist facts and get you to change your views based on something totally circumstantial.

Quote from P5YcHoM4N :

You should get a new rubber pad for your jack, it protects the frame from metal on metal contact which leads to problems.

Buying a low pro jack from summit soon.

Quote from Matrixi :

Good god... those US spec bumpers are hideous. :vomit:

The bumpers aren't bad it's the had shocks. You can shorten them by drilling holes in the shocks.

Quote from Tinytacohead :

That's what I was afraid of.. you ghino'd it, height wise. Maybe it won't look so slammed with different rims/lower profile rubber tho..

I left more than enough for wheel movement, only thing that has issues is the exhaust (which isn't hanging properly). It's 20in(0.5m) to the bottom of of the fender.

I am picking up better coilovers soon.

I am hoping to go airbags on my next mk1.

Here's the snowflakes.


I'm also ordering the small euro bumpers without turn signals.

I lowered the Rabbit finally. Bought snowflakes but 3 were bent

Quote from sinbad :

Wahhh?
Firstly, how on earth did you find a 30 year old run-around with 9000 miles on it, and how do you know it's genuinely only done 9000?
Secondly, surely you should be keeping it totally original and putting in dry storage or something

Was an old lady's car, she kept all the documents from her yearly garage visits. I got it with 7100 miles two years ago. After I lower it, throw some wheels on and a couple other vintage things I'm done. No molesting this one, gotta buy a different one lol.

Quote from Tinytacohead :

Just placed my supercharger kit order, can't wait! Everybody kept trying to sway me towards turbo but meh, I wanna play under 3k too. (and besides, my last car had two of em, so I'm ready to walk on the other side )

Superchargers are much more fun, and if you aren't going to make over 500hp you won't have to worry about it taking power away.

My coilovers arrived, I have a New Old Stock VW roofrack en route, and a limited edition Momo steering wheel arrive today.

Say good bye to stock height on my 9000 original mile 1981 Rabbit.

I'll just leave this here

Having issues myself too, can't connect to half of my normal servers, and can't find any british ones at that

I agree, really cool, nice for cruise servers too!

Still not sure how the snow did this but gave an LOL

Ok so I hate exotics only ones I've ever liked are few and far between but the camo on that McLaren P1 just gave me a raging hard-on lol. It's race tracks from around the world. Freaking of the hook!

^^ That ice bar reminds me of the igloo we built and camped in a few years ago! Over stateside it's just been cold with unpredictable 5 minute white outs lol. It's so annoying when you are driving, people just go full retard and stop then proceed at 5mph lol

2 minute period, by minute 3 it was clear, also the photos make it look better than it is, I couldn't see the EOS in front of me in the last two pics

The D2 on its correct pan, but before the torsion bars were adjusted correctly

Quote from Tinytacohead :

Yeah it is. (Chrysler that is) According to a BMW tech friend awhile back, it's just the block. FWIW I wasn't knocking it, was just wondering as I quit following them first after they dropped the Mazda plan & pretty much completely, after losing track of the BMW buddy. (and remember reading about a possible Peugeot or Citroen powerplant change-up. just checked & guess that never happened though) BTW, love the Saab & would love to see more pics of it @ some point! Looking forward to the D2 as well.

I find it hard to believe the block would be Chrysler as the Daimler-Chrysler merger was 1998, and this motor would have most likely been in development, I could be wrong. But if I am Chrysler got something post 1971 right lol. In 2007 the motor was switched over to Peugot when they went from the r50 and r53 to the r56(bigger body) followed but the r55(clubman) and r60(countryman). The r52 kept the 1.8 Tritec(that sounds so manly lol) until they switched it over to the r57(big body) in '09. They also switched from a supercharger to a sequential turbo setup with the swap.

Personally I have driven several of the new MINIs and they suck compared to the R53s like mine and the original minis like my old '62 Austin Mini 850cc US Spec

The D2 is prepped for our fiberglass repairs and will be powered by a 1957 Porsche 1600 normal, with Porsche brakes and trans, but Beetle chassis.

And today I attempted to clean the inner fender on the bunny but decided the paint is so thin I need a different cleaner so I don't chew away at paint.

Quote from Tinytacohead :

Do they still have a Chrysler/Neon main block? I wish they'd gone with Mazda's K series as originally planed.. woulda breathed all kinds of new life into the MX-3/MX-6 world!
(and some of us could care less about BMW's, no offense)

It's a TriTec motor (BMW/Daimler joint) I don't know what the block is it is so packed in there lol. It's a 1.8L if that helps. It was designed in 1999/2000 for the 2001 model year.

Read through way too many pages of this for my own good, I still think a MkI VW Golf/Rabbit would be a really good fit in the game, but also think there needs to be some fictitious V6 or W8/V8 wagon kind of like the Passat W8 4motion and it's Audi siblings. Would be a good competitor for the FZ5 and is heavy enough to also make it compatible with the RB4 and LX6
