Little case of too firm in the sway bars & too little driving talent to catch it :help:

I have learnt an awful lot about setting cars up for the racetrack since then :wink:

That was lakeside in 2000

1999 TH 3.5L V6 5sp manual Mitsubishi Magna Advance. Boring family car but surprisingly responsive to modifying. Dedicated fan base much like this forum - aussiemagna.com

Lowered, wheels, full exhaust inc headers, K&N filter, front strut brace, beefy rear sway bar, Unichip & dynotuned, short shifter, Sports Ryder struts/springs, lots of stereo work........, upgraded interior inc leather wrapped tiller, white instrument dials, more leather bits.....

Responded really well to the Unichip/dyno. Only got 131KW ATFW but 350Nm torque ATFW with a very flat torque curve. More torque ATFW than a Ralliart Magna had at the crankshaft. Very smooth driving but huge torque steer if you booted it. Best 0-100Km/hr 6.5 sec - not bad for a pre-2000 family car. Fuel consumption was 11-12L/100Km around town & 7-7.5 on highway after tuning :smile: Handled so much better than a stocker but still not even in the same galaxy let alone ballpark as the GTi.

Lost soooooo much $$$$ on it though

Not a bad car, just needed to go on a diet.

Yeh, as I was reading through your list of mods I was actually thinking you could have bought a WRX and have change leftover.

 

[g60_corrado_91]

what car is that ?? LEXUS ??

Scion tC which is basically a younger generation Toyota. It's very similar to the discontinued Toyota Celica.

2003 Jeep Wrangler -- still have it, but just for weekend and wheeling fun now. It was getting too many miles as a daily driver and they don't make them in this style anymore.

Driving the Jeep and the Fahrenheit is quite the culture shock if you go from one to the other too quickly though! :laugh:

The Jeep is faster than the Fahrenheit -- on rocks! :biggrin:
