Recently brought this beast.

A 1995 SEAT Cordoba. It's massive1.8L engine pushing out an amazing 66kw (88hp!). Those 14 inch Alloys are gnarly, with nice wide holes so every one can see those awesome rear drum brakes. The Sunroof is so totally hardcore it doesn't even open and that rear wing adds some much needed downforce when I'm travelling at my extreme (un-tested) top speed of 195km/h (121 mph!!! Seriously!).

Now seriously, this car is pretty good. Handles like it's on rails. I'm looking to get an exhaust system but they're kind of hard to get a hold of in Australia. It's bad enough trying to find someone to service it....I rang 5 people before someone had even heard of a SEAT!

@Fairlady240zg:
Love the 280. I always wanted a 240z, such an awesome shape those cars have. Go quite hard too I hear!
 
Should've went with gold. the anthracite color makes the car look all murky.
 
i was pretty set on the cliche gold, but i was able to get these used from someone, so i figured what the hell, why not. ive got a front and rear lip in mind that i wanna eventually get that should compliment the rims a little better
 
Details:
1. I didn't choose those craptacular rims, the previous owner did.
2. They will be replaced as soon as I've got extra $$.
3. I'm swapping the rear brakes for some EP3 discs.
4. Tein FLEX's with the lovely EDFC are in the future. :D
5. Going to see what lip from previous gen. 'vic's I like most. I'm thinking Mugen EK9 lip in CF.
...more to come :D





 
Ghost C. I use to have almost that exact same muffler on my car. Nice sound, but really loud. Might be partly to do with my I/H/E combo, but people could hear me coming across town.

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.

beautiful ride dude, I am very envious ! :drool: :drool:
 
That's just ****ing scary....

I hope that body kit produces a lot of downforce...

But what I'm really impressed with is that you're mental enough to take your hands off the wheel at 190km/h in a Ka, to take a perfectly focused and detailed picture.
 
Here's both of my Ford Foci that's plural for Focuses. :sly: I'm planning on getting a second job to start my RX-7+LT1 project soon. So as soon as I get my RX-7 and wrecked F body I'll post the pics of those.

Heh. I currently own a Vauxhall Astra 1.4LS 4 door hatch.
It has a hole in the exhaust, minor engine problems and now low tread on one tyre. I bought a nice noisy exhaust off of Ebay for £15 including postage :sly: and its not too excessive (3"), Other than thats its totally stock, but once ive managed to get it fixed up i'll sell it on to some poor sod and buy myself a decent running, more powerful 4 door.


 
Well I think most of you know what my truck looks like but whatever I want to toot my own horn.

She looks great Blazin' though she looks like she has a sad face on with those JDM(?) lights on.

Still nice lookin. There's been a recent pop-up of the S10 Xtreme's around here, but they sell faster than I can go and see 'em.:grumpy:
 
Well the fact that it's a aftermarkets rad support (damn accident) so the lights don't fit quite right. But ya it does look sad...and for whatever reason they are certianly JDM headlights...they were made in Japan for the American market, go figure that one out.

The middle light looks seemingly like a BMW light with it's "halo" ring--which is sexy IMO. Nice truck I must say, clean and dark...I like it. Post a pic of the interior plzkthx
