lol you guys have Volvos? Awesome, I was in Norway over the summer and we rent a Volvo 240 Turbo Diesel, and omg it was hella fast.

a6m5, lol is that like the first Gen Maxima?

I really like your Altima. How much did it set you back? lol

Hope you like it¡¡¡¡¡

:lol: I belive it's the second generation Maxima. It was a great little car!

My Altima was around $20,000, but you can get it much cheaper now.

lol Maximas have sure been around for awhile.

Yea, Altimas are nice cars. Do they have the same engine as the Maxima?
V-6 Altima might have more power, actually. Unfortunately, mine is a 2.5S, so it's a four-banger(damn good one though). Altima SE-R's supposedly have even more power than the regular V-6.

It gave my wife and I a new respect for Volvos, and less than a month after returning to the States, we bought a brand new '98 S70 T5 (the 236 HP model).

My dad's got one of those (but a '99). Is yours manual?

No, we bought it primarily for my wife to drive, and she's strictly an automatic driver. But with the auto on the Sport setting, it's a pretty decent slushbox. And with peak torque at 2100 RPM, I rarely feel the need to induce a "kickdown"...

Whoa, a tastefully modded Honda that's actually quick! Nice car, Ejan. :) 👍

This is my baby (imageshack thumbnail -- click for larger image):

It isn't particularly quick, but it loves corners, and gets me around without burning too much petrol... :)
 
hey wolf, i thought your car was rusty! well i have a bad sight. very nice condition! show quality, but why do you have a luggage rack on the roof?
 
It came with the car, and that picture was taken before I took it off...... :)

Anyway, thanks for the compliments, guys! :embarrassed: But in reality, it doesn't look as good when you look at it closely.... :indiff:
 
I always found it odd that the 1.8T was slightly faster then the VR6...guess its the weight.

Well stock for stock the vr6 has an upper hand. As long as its the same years. A 99-01 1.8t is only 150hp and the vr6 172hp. The 02-04 1.8t has 180hp and the vr6 has 201hp. Once a 1.8t is chipped its a new animal...it picks up about 30-40 hp because the boost is upped. Since the vr6 isnt force induced a chip can only up the fueling...so you only get ~10hp...but MK4 VWs arent that great for turning into a "racecar".....With a few grand you can get both vr6 and 1.8t up to respectable numbers. Ive seen quite a few hit 300+hp. Thats alot for a FWD car.

These are 3 year old pictures. Car was two grand from a redneck guy who was going to turn it into a drag race car...unfortunately it has no power steering anymore. :ouch:
The engine bay has been cleaned and shes got new suspension (Tokico) with a 1" drop, custom 3" no cat, no muffler exhaust system, Custom K&N Cai...New Interior..'91 crx reapolstered seats swap. Most of effort went into restoring her to near mint condition. :indiff: Frame rails will be replaced this winter most likely..
Sorry, nothing more recent on this computer. It is stored during winter months, during that time my daily driver is a 2003 eclipse.
