This is what I drive:

1990 Rover Mini Cooper 1275cc A+ series, Carb model.

Mods are as follows:

• Maniflow tubular steel LCB exhaust manifold.
• Maniflow single-box centre-exit exhaust with 3 inch rolled
• stainless tailpipe (makes a wonderful burbling noise under
  engine-braking).
• K&N open type cone filter on 1 3/4 inch S.U. Carb.
• K&N open type engine breather filters.
• Custom adjustable-height suspension struts.
• Spax gas-adjustable shock absorbers.
• 12" x 6" Minilight style alloys (white with polished rims).
• 165x65x12 Yokohama tyres.
• Cut-down KAD Quickshift gearchange.
• Cobra Clubman bucket seats and 4-point harnesses.
• Pioneer CD player and rear shelf speakers. (No crazy I.C.E.)
• Genuine Rover Sportspack arches - colour-coded.
• Stupidly small steering wheel and some shiny stuff here and there.

Goes pretty well for a largley standard cooper lump. Had it off the clock on a few occasions (on a german autobahn of course cos the speed limit is 70mph here in the UK - ahem ;oP)

That small metal frame on back is from the soft-top for it, I either have it totally topless (just rollcage) or I usually have a hardtop on it.

Got some new chunky wheels since, made myself a stainless steel dual exhaust, tuning engine atm (have a track car V8 to put in, but im super scared about insurance, im only 18 and this is my first car). Gonna repaint it all (not my choice of colour/stickers) and do some serious mucking about with odd stuff, just smarten it up and raise it a little for off roading.

Good fun

Hey Spie nice to see another Radical driver out there

Heres mine in action



a few other projects:

Mini1000

[philth]

Seat Ibiza 1.4 SE

Current mods:
Smacking the back end of a truck by the looks of things

[bladesilver]

1988 CRX DX (basically the lighest CRX chassis aside from the HF which would require brake and suspension modifications to be competant that would bring it up to about the same weight)
Stripped all sound deadening carpeting and interior plastic garbage except dash
Sparco Speed racing seat, stock Recarro passenger seat still in
B16A SiR1 DOHC VTEC Motor Swap w/ S1 Transmission
the usually intake, 4-1 header, exhaust.
KYB AGX 4-way adjustable struts that I leave set on 4 (stiffest setting)
Ground Control coilover suspension with perches set 2 inches below stock height.
neuspeed front and rear sway bars.
TSW Trophy 15x7 wheels wrapped in 195/50ZR15 BF Goodrich Comp T/As, although soon 205/50/15 Falken Azenis
ECU chipped, VTEC@4800 RPM, redline @ 9000 rpm, secondary O2 sensor disabled.

Drag 3 turbo kit coming perhaps next summer after an SiR front end conversion.

Everything done to the car I did myself except the exhaust which I didn't have the facilities to weld and fabricate piping for. Other than that, everything down to the engine swap which took me 4 days, the wiring for the motor, the suspension work, was all done by me.

this was my daily driver until I came down here to UC santa cruz and left it back home for the school year. New smog laws here in california have me wondering if it will ever be street legal here in california again . Its primary use for fun is autocross, I don't drag race it, although I do go for some fun on the mountain passes frequently. It surprises a lot of people, everything on the outside suggests its pretty much stock except for the wheels and racing seat, and the fact that it is lowered. Tail pipe is almost exactly the same as the stock and the sound until I hit VTEC is pretty muted. I've given WRXs, integra type Rs, S2000s, and M3s runs for their money, especially on twisties, but I'm always very sportsmanlike about it and always like to make sure its all in good fun.

[Pug]

My last but one (or two) car was a CRX... little rocketship it was.

Currently -



Audi 80 TDi, 5spd manual.


My brother gets all the nice toys ... some of his cars below at a car show (with my nephew in shot and my old bus behind)

Yuh-huh. 14 foot 9 inches of solid 1956 Leyland Titan PD2/12 half-cab with Metro-Cammell bodywork (the last surviving example to retain its original roof no less it's listed in a book somewhere too)
10 litre diesel engine Unf! Unf!

I had to rebuild the gearbox once (after it seized in reverse after being flooded one time) so I happened to take a photo of it



I have a bunch of pics of it at Glastonbury and other various festivals and free parties too somewhere (from my more rebellious days).
I could tell you more but you'd probably want pics to prove, so I'll leave it at that for now...


[Edit] Heh, we used to get the funniest looks going to the McD's drive-thru for a thick shake on a hot day.

[MiniG]

Here's my ride, A 51 reg Fiat Stilo in broom yellow.
currently nursing a broken parcel shelf and a damaged boot liner (I'm never using the boot to carry a gearbox again).

Rite...a new member here, i thought i would put down what i currently drive atm.....

Remember, i'm a young 'un! ok....18.

Pug 306 LX
Volvo S80 D (apparently 160 bhp?)

I haven't got any pics of them, as i don't have a digi camera....must get one for Christmas probably!

The Pug is my mum's, and the Vovlo is my Dad's....well, i haven't got my own car atm....no money!

Favorite car: Volvo, but the looks i attract while driving....

BTW....i've thought that MX-5's were pretty good for the price and the "fun factor" they have....better than some of the more overpriced rubbish.....like...ah...err......help me out?

*me dreams of a Lotus Elise.....**sigh***

[Lord_A]

Here's my 'banger' :







Make : Vauxhall
Model : Cavalier CD 2.0i
Year : 1989
Max Power : 129bhp / 95kW @ 5600rpm
Max Torque : 180Nm @ 4600rpm

MODS :

Sony front-loader CD head unit.
JBL 6x9 rear speakers.
Clear side repeaters.
'Sport' springs (much stiffer and lower)
Rear spoiler (was fitted when the car was bought but it's not standard)

I've had the car for just over 3 years now, it's starting to give me a lot of problems but it hasn't been very well looked after and the previous owner was a boy racer so it was thrashed pretty much every day by him

It's soon to be replaced so watch this space!

[mannisson]

sweet rides...

here is mine.

1991 Honda CRX SI
parts list... JDM SIR B16, zydyne ecu w/ custom chip, type r cams, port & polished head, 3 angle valve job, shaved head .002, removed middle gasket from head gasket = 12:1 compression, no name intake, dc 4-1 headers, high flow cat, thermal exhaust, neuspeed springs, oem shocks, s1 tranny, action 1ms 6 puk sprung clutch, clutchmasters lighened & balanced flywheel, 1992 acura integra gsr wheels, bridgestone eager tires.

thats all i can think of so far...








more pics if requested.

[kiljoi]

no pic at the moment, but I have a 1988 Ford F-150 Custom with a 5.8L 351 Windsor. With flaming dice hanging from the mirror. It looks like a POS but It's my baby, and I can do a whole hell of a lot without getting stuck in anything.

[redhawk]

This is my ride. A well taken care of 1990 Toyota Celica GT.
I added the fiberglass rear spoiler with the LEDs.
Other than that she is stock and spoiled.

[chartley]

I've still not got round to taking a proper photo of the car, so all I have to throw in are two photos taken by chance with the car in it...
It's a Ford Ka (Eurch I know) Collection "sport".

It can sort of shift, if it's just me in it otherwise it's just a game of building up speed. That said it cruises on the motorway nicely, even when it had 4 people in it with all their luggage it still kept up with the pace

And I cant complain, it came with rather nice wide wheels (for the size of car... they're bigger than the wheels on my dad's Megane ) And it also came with rather nice looking alloys... god bless ford having a good day.

[realhorrorshow]

Mazda RX-7 Type RB Bathurst

[netpapa]

'03 Jeep Liberty Sport

My old ride shown in the background of this one. 1986 Suzuki Samurai. It was one mean mama-jama in it's day.

[iceKING]

This is what I drive, its a 94' MK5 Ford Escort 1.4LX. Its not actually my car but I share it with my dad and put fuel in when I use it etc. (Can't afford to run my own car yet )




erm its pretty much standard apart from some clear side repeaters and a JVC CD/MP3 headunit.

[diskreet]

My car, the 2001 civic LX, and my dad's 01 Camry LE V6


Here is the front for those of you who dont know how cars work. Dont mind the license plate, i just got the darn car a week or two ago.


Oakleys (well worth the $150)


By april my license plate might be changed to "NOT RICE" cause im sick of people with civics with huge mufflers trying to talk to me like im as stupid as they are.
Dont get me wrong, a turbo eclipse or something like that is not rice, but anyone who puts an $80 muffler on their car and thinks its a street racer is just dumb.
