1994 Ford Probe GTS

I've done heaps more and still have lots thats not mentioned

The carpc is a mini itx in the boot with a 7" xga touchscreen that flips out from the dash and does GPS and all the media stuff like dvd's avi mp3's and it has a camera that records the road aswell with a logger function on the gps so i can playback the trip and see how fat and follow where the car went (see if my dads speeding in my car

)

damn nice car nin! what sort of supercharger you putting on it? a roots style blower on my olds would be pretty badass but i would have to cut a hole in the hood to do it lol. most i will do preformance wise on my olds is an aluminum intake, dual exhaust and maybe a mild cam and camel hump heads, that would bring it to probably around 275-300 horsepower gross, probably 250ish at the rear wheels. also plan a decent soundsystem and carPC for it, gotta design a console that fits in with the car first tho. here are some more pics

later when i get it out of the barn ill clean up the engine compartment properly and get a pic of it with the aircleaner on. and DUDE HDC why on earth would you want a lancer when you have a freakin SUPRA assuming your supra has the more common 2JZ-GE(3.0L I6) engine thats still probably 230hp, over 320 if its the 2JZ-gte turbo, a lancer evo only has 270hp from the 4G63 (2.2L I4)turbo plus supras look WAY better imo, my favorites are the 82-86 celica supra and the 86-88 supra turbos

For some reason beyond my control or understanding Sir Games-A-Lot and automobiles do not mix well, so while legally I could have been driving several months ago, I stick with my trusty old hand-me-down bike (my dads from when he was my age) to move me around in the mysterious world of "The Outside", where there is no copy and paste options, and no save points

.

It's actually a pretty nice bike all things considered, but I need to either modify it or replace it altogether, the handle bar is much to low so my hands and back hurt on longer trips

.

(And no, I am not a health nut who eats granola. Alright so that last part's not true. I do eat granola, but only because I like the way it tastes)

I'll be driving a 5 speed chevy prism, basically an old corrola knockoff, it even has toyota stamped on the insides somewhere.

I love driving my pop's old yellow mg
here is the closest looking pic I could find on google real quick it looks pretty much exactly like this

When I'm old enough I'll be driving the 1998 Dodge Ram 1500 in the driveway. It's white, and it has a lot of engine problems.

Thanks it's going through a huge change im making it part show part go all cruiser

The supercharger is a Eaton m62 they are common and perfect for projects they are off a mercedes SLK 98 to 2000 model i believe

You could easily fit one of these neer the bottom of the engine.

Your car looks nice if i had one like that id be primping it and making it look more moden like the holden efijy

Updated look with the classic style elements

There's quite afew people making older cars like this which i think is great altho most are using a frame of a moden car and using a shell of the older ones so they have the AC and power steering which i think is a good idea as thoese older cars arn't that safe in the wet

Post by **Triton** » Tue Jun 26, 2007 8:59 pm

their plenty safe if you know how to handle em

manual steering, no power brakes and a curb weight of just under four thousand pounds

i agree the efijy is AMAZING looking and updating the looks of a classic like that usually looks pretty good! but my car is all original except the engine and transmission! the brake parts are all from kanter auto parts and either rebuilt OEM stuff or exact reproduction.

also things like AC are pretty easy to add to cars like this especialy mine because it uses a standard chevy smallblock v8. things like power steering arent really needed in my opinion, when your moving its plenty easy to steer as is. only complaint i have is the suspension in front is REALLY soft, thats because its 53 years old tho (knee action shocks that cost $185 a pair if you send them your originals to rebuild)

How is your gas mileage

nightwheel · Post by **nightwheel** » Tue Jun 26, 2007 10:12 pm

My rides: I got a 86 F150 with a straight 6. Needs to be towed home. Got it for my 16th birthday. My dad sold it about 2 years ago. The got it back for the person he sold it to for a $100 bucks. Still runs good but needs front brakes. But no pics of it

.

The other Rides I have:

My Murray mower. 10 hp Tecumseh motor, 5 gear transaxle, 30 in cut. And in gear 3 and up. That mower can do a standing start wheelie if it gets enough grip.

My Craftsman mower. 16 hp OHV Kohler Command motor, 6 gear Shift On the Go transaxle(used to have hydrostatic drive before it broke), 42 in cut. This is my main baby. It's got the soft seat.

nothing to brag about

a 5.7L pre emissions V8 with a large carburetor coupled to an automatic transmission in a car that weighs two tons, i put my estimate on gas milage at somewhere between 8 and 15mpg, probably about 11 really.

We have:

1994 Ford F-350, four door, longbed, 4x4, does a good job offroad, even though its mostly stock
460 (7.5l) v8
Axles are geared too high, so acceleration and hills (especially with 1500lbs of ATV and rack in the bed and towing a ~24 foot camper) are the suxxors. We'll likely get lower gears with next year's tax return. Might also get a new 460 and a supercharger or a diesel, but those are a few years down the road.

1999 Ford Windstar
weak v6
Sucks butt, wish we had kept our v10 Excursion, almost as good mpg but with a ton more powa'.

~1996 Honda Civic
little 4 banger (no fart cannon on back)
Gets 40mpg highway, so its good that way.

When I get my license we might get a Ford Escort (40mpg FTW) or a Kawasaki Ninja 250cc (50-70mpg even more FTW) for me to drive, just depends on my parents, since they'll be buying and it'll still be theirs even if I'm the main driver.
