Hi

Thought i put some pic's of the new 9 up, its a 2000 Type Rx with a few mods. i got it at the end of January off tegiwa imports, after crashing my last one:mad: F-ing ice, hope i have more luck with this one!

There's a few things i want 2 do 2 it when iv got some spare cash, get a 4-2-1 manifold, fit my buddy club pro spec 3 (never had a chance 2 fit it 2 the old one), and get some coilover, think she be good then.

Sorry about pic quality

if any body says that the line from the door 2 the quarter panel looks dodgy, it's because i did'nt close the door properly! parked the car in the middle of the road running! cant trust the locals they wont stop for anything lol

Whys it a **** to drive?? :shocked:
 
I nightmare 2 drive in town mate, it got a paddle clutch:angry2: think it got a lighten flywheel as well, so it pritty much stall or or wheel spins when you take off, iv fitted toyo r888 (f-ing awesome tyres) now, so it doesn't wheel spin like it used 2 unless you drive it hard:drive: but im getting used 2 it now, pritty much anybody who driven it has stalled it lol! It just a bit different 2 the last one, just a little bit quicker, and it got more grunt at the bottom end, but it doesn't rev like the last one only goes up 2 8900rpm before it hit the limiter, the last one would go up 2 9500rpm:angry:
 
i love ur trpe r lmao! is the paddle clutch the reason why you didnt stay in mcdonalds drive thru? lol
 
Cheers people:)

Got a little update on the 9

It sound ****ing Awesome now you can probably hear me coming from at least a mile away lol

Got a few other things that i need 2 do, is 2 get another 421 manifold (got one already but it a uk spec on (2.25 - 2 1/4"inch), it for sale if anybody interested, also need 2 get some new wheel nuts, I want rays/volts in blue 2 go with my wheel but they are f-ing expensive like! and i wouldent mind get another intake, as I fancy a change from the top fuel.
