Doesn’t beat NA Miata.

Will Nissan revive the S-Chassis or a new rear wheel drive, long wheelbase couple platform? Does the eventual slowdown of Toyota/Subaru’s sales of FRS/BRZ/GT86 discourage you from developing an entry level RWD coupe? I have a 240SX and would love to see a new Silvia replacement.

I thought another issue was Subaru’s use of phosphate based coolant whereas the more commonly sold coolant is glycol, which would corrode the head gasket prematurely. I also know the EJ251 had a recall for faulty head gaskets. I thought only the late years EJ25D did Subaru finally switch to multi player steel gaskets.

More like when is the next S-chassis coming or I’ll just import an R32 Skyline.

Neutral: Is That Lincoln Good Enough?

My XV has been alright. The CVT is a little disappointing if you are used to a manual transmission or a “good” automatic. I haven’t yet drive a manual XV, some complains it is “rubbery” but I cannot confirm that. The 148 HP FB20 engine is enough for commutes and light trips, but if you fully load it up with 4 adults…

Neutral: Are You Planning On Buying An SUV Or Crossover?

It looks more cramped than the outgoing CX-9? Is this getting redesigned on a new platform or is it still sitting on the Ford CD3 platform?

That is one beautiful 240Z. Too bad all the ones around the DC Metro area are all rusty pieces of crap or super nice restored ones.

Man hats off to Mcrae, I rewatched a Youtube documentary on his racing, man <3 much respect.

Ah figures. Yeah that’s another reason why I didn’t consider the VQ35/37, it was kinda too new, not knocking the engine. Though officially my chassis is OBD2, with my friend’s bluetooth OBD reader, it shows up as an OBD1 engine. Yeah the throttle would seem like a pain, especially if you boost the VQ, you need ALOT of…

Hopefully next year Mclaren will get those Honda powerplants sorted out.

Haha yup VH45DE and I have eventual plans on supercharging it. Z32 5 speed, custom drive shaft, haven’t deicided on the LSD (either J30 or Q45).

Ugh what a mess. I’m glad the swap I plan on doing to my 240SX, most of the pieces aren’t that expensive.

Neutral: Global Emissions Standards?

I think the big question for me would be, what is the gas mileage of the V8 Cummins in the Titan? The previous generation VK56DE was already pretty awful. And the Titan XD already looks goofy looking like a Tonka truck.

You would have to pay me to take that turd. CP.

Making a cat go nuts with a laser pointer: good idea.
