Thats because RC cars generally run NMC pouch cells that have a expected cycle life generally no more that 250.

Have you even been in a work van? Those cabinets are the loudest thing known to man.

Pretty sure Toyota lost money on every FJ they sold...  

The magic of slick tires.

Sadly the Si only has 91 hp/91ft-lbs coming from the owner of an 85 si.

But then stuff like this happens...  

I think your timeline is on point!

My dream car (or close enough) since it on EVO years back.

Does anyone else have a recurring dream that Subaru  put the ez30d(r) in the BRZ? 250hp H6 solves all dilemma except emissions...

I think you mean the Teslas whose battery packs will have failed in have the number of cycles 

I think Jeep would disagree...

Stop it, don’t tell anyone!

You my friend are wrong, just had to part with my 85 Si and it was easily the most fun car I have owned. Driven 3 different EF CRXs and while they certainly feel more modern, they also feel so much heavier.  I weighed mine at the gambler once with 2 people, tools, spares, and camping gear at 2300lbs.....   

why oh why did you publicize this.... I know it will probably get lots of comments, but I would like to own one of these again someday and you’re making that harder!

They were truly a different breed of engineer.

After working in a tire shop for a summer in college a few years back, My biggest takeaway was that most Michelin’s coming off of cars, (even those that look the ones in the photo above) we’re still more pliable, felt better, and look better internally than most new tires I put on.   

Any Honda car built before 2000.... imagine a factory fresh CRX Si, or a new integra GSR, and don’t even get me started on early preludes....

did you mean “I already van …”

This!!!!!

My first car was an early nineties Mazda MPV (rwd 929 platform) with no rear seats and just a giant subwoofer box for counter weight and that car made me fall in love with rallying!
