Those wheels look terrible on everything!

 

[CodeRedR51]

You guys can't be serious...........

Didn't say I like the wheels. Just the way it looks overall. Simple, and not dumped on it's nuts which ruins the handling.

That blue miata still looks too low to be functional, though I agree that it's probably the best of them

@ speed junkie: what vehicle was shown in your last two photos? Also, what wheels was the old 3-series sitting on?

 

[Perfect Balance]

Those XXR wheels on the Miata are horrible, and even more so in real life. The spokes stick out past the face of the wheels and it's just so ugly.

Love that 914. Don't care what supposed Porschephiles say, it's a proper Porsche and they can look stunning. Interior on that one is possibly even more perfect than the exterior and engine bay.

The teal Miata is right up my alley too. Really dig that look.

Re: The FTO's engine, I'm glad they went for the V6 rather than the Evo lump. Gives the car a bit of character and certainly sounds better. Definite case of performance not being everything.

I agree! That blue F40 is downright sexy as well.

 

[Cale]

That blue is verging on chrome, it's not just the pictures making it so shiny.

Als O I would do unspeakable things for a FTO GP Version R

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

An FTO on work meisters would be looker for sure...

It's a Ginetta G40R.

NC Miata engine and transmission. With ITBs of course



Regarding the wheels, Impul Silhouette.

 

[Rotary Junkie]

Regarding the FTO engine. I agree that the V6 definitely sounds nice but I really like the sound of the 4G93 as well. And I have never been a big fan of a the whole V6 FWD car idea even though the FTO supposedly handles decently. But how cool would it have been if they came with the 4G63 and AWD?

Also, fixed a couple photos on my last post.

Far less cool. What you'd have there is called an Eclipse.

Actually, I am.

And that Subaru is way too low 👎

 

[Rue]

Oh my... That Porsche 914/6 on the previous page is stunning. Wow!

 

[Glubags]

New DD/restomod project. I've already sourced pretty much all the parts it's missing; just have to save a few more dollars for paint. You can't tell so much from this picture, but the car's paint is in absolutely awful condition. I'm thinking it'll look good with a few coats of white and some 15" Enkei 92s in gold.

It began life as an '87 automatic; previous owner swapped in the '89 4AGE + 5-speed. Fun little car. 👍

 

[Blitz187]

Looks like it wasnt only the F40 thats chrome blue...

Yeah except it is hundreds of pounds lighter, smaller, and much better looking than an Eclipse. In fact, the Eclipse should never have come to be and rather they just have sold AWD, turbo 4G63-powered FTOs. Too bad Mitsubishi was never really good at anything outside of the WRC.

Nice 👍 Paint might be in poor nick but at least it isn't rotting everywhere like most of them in the UK!

Agreed.

Agreed again.

 

[homeforsummer]

Apologies if any are reposts.

[RocZX]

Nice. 👍

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

That's one tough looking Datsun.

 

[Carlos]

That bodykit better be functional Got any more photos??

 

[Tommi]

Yeah, 2500hp functional.

What you see here is just a taste of what's to come; an introduction to the WORLD Racing Top Speed BMF Supra. 2500hp, 3000lb curb weight, 8 cylinders, two billet titanium turbos, and enough wing and rubber that you might just think its an airplane.

[hemisport15]

Oh it most definitely is... How else would you keep 2,500 horsepower under control?

EDIT: Ninja'd

Some pics from First Class Fitment

Full metal widebody with a twin scroll turbo set up...

and some from SEMA

Posted in the Mazda2 thread in Auto News, but will post it here too:

Stance = PERFECT

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

I need moar of this Z32:

 

[Keef]

You're right, we need more $3000 sets of weak fitment and street rod show tires.

 

[eSZee]

Great post hemisport, though that blue scoob did make me gag a bit. People these days.

 

[Perfect Balance]

Photoshop though.
