Hey guys, long time no see. It feels like ages since I was last on this site! Awe yes, the olden days. Anyways, I have bin kinda hopping around north America and have finally found my place in BC, Canada. Now that I got a condo and beautiful girlfriend, I feel that I am ready to come back to the XI community and discuss what I love, cars.

Some time next week I will take pictures of my Supra MK3 Turbo and create a new topic with specs and future plans. Just like the good old days with my Honda!

Most of all, I'm just happy to be back :p

yeah it really has been awhile welcome back man

good to see your still around Rexter! I see that the site has slowed down quit a bit but that's okay.

Now that I have a sports car again the first thing that came to mind was Team XI. Even though we are half a world apart, we all still have the same love and enthusiasm for cars.

Hey Spike! I dont even know how I missed this thread
Nice to have you back, how long has it been? 1½-2 years?.. Man time flies..

But it's good to have you back
Be sure to post that Supra

BTW, I bought the Subaru from one of my friends, who's really into Mk.3's.
He recently bought and importet an original JZA70.. But not just JZA70, it's a TT-R
Currently pushing around 470hp from the 1JZ, and when the screamerpipe opens, my God it's loud! xD

Well It's nothing like an JZA70 but it's my baby. The 7M-GTE engine was just rebuilt and polished. Like I said, I will put up a thread on it later this month with the list of mods. Man the turbo hits hard!

Here is some pics I took last night for fun.






Nice set of PIAA's sitting wide. 17x10 rims with 240-45-17 tires(Back) and 17x8.5 rims with 235-45-17(Front)

Really clean MA70 Spike, it's a beauty!
Looking forward to the thread

Looks clean! Only the rims don't really suit the car

Your crazy man! I'll take some daytime shots so you can see how good the silver spokes flow with the silver paint. I went through a lot of styles and size's to come up with this combo. but hey, everyone's got there opinion.

Yeah make them, so I could have a better look

ps. you know me, I'm always crazy

I'm sure I forgot some stuff but that's enough for now. The car is still a work in progress.

Ehm... You've got 2 exhausts on it?

Its HKS full Piping with Megan Muffler. had an HKS end but it go stolen so i got a cheaper one.
I don't know much about the brand of suspension. It was already on the car when I got it and it works awesome.

Like I said, there is some stuff that I forgot like 12" slotted brakes and sway bars. I haven't spent much time under the car yet to know the brand names. All body and suspension work was done by the previous owner and the setup kicks ass. I just wanted more power.

but... how the hell do they steal it? isn't it welded?

I think it was kicked off. I was at a mall and when I came out I didn't even notice until I started the car.
It was a HKS Carbon-Ti that I got a good deal for and the sound was awesome! The Megan muffler has more of an sound note at higher revs so I'm happy with it as well.

I went and did some drifting last night with my boys and striped my posi traction lock apart in my rear differential. Now my car only doe's one wheel burn outs. I can get the second wheel to spin but it needs to be warmed up first now. I guess I will only be drifting to the left until I get it rebuilt lol.

Kicked off? Wow! Thats really unfortunate
Well I know a guy who has a Megan Racing cat. back on his car, and it sounds tough, so I could imagin a Mk.3 sounding evil with it on

As for the diff. breaking, just weld it up, instant drift fun

wow nice car
i like the fd next to it too

We Chinese eat rice...ricers that is.

I'm going to have to wait until winter passes to take any pictures of the car. its bin snowing like crazy and I dont feel like taking it out of the garage.

That last pic is great
The body looks really clean and unmolested (most there in DK are rotting away), so thats nice. But I have to agree with Don. It's not that the rims don't go with the car. They're just dwarfed by the Mk.3's arches

But now that we have pictures.. How about a video so we can hear the beast aswell

I took a long time to come up with the wheel fitment. As you can notice the was the N/A model Ma70 making it lighter. I have it just under 3400 pounds and plan on making it even lighter. I needed rims that can fit wide tires and be super light. As a result of searching for large lightweight wheels I came across these PIAA's in the same color as the car. The way I look at it is these wheels are a performance upgrade mostly over looks.

wow....thats awesome! really nice ride you got there.
I like the wheels, but I think they could be one inch bigger.

That's a clean car! Well, finished university now going for my master And the GTi, still fixing that thing :p
