Old school Jap Rebuild done right!
Quote:No sooner do I get in position that I hear it. Approaching in the opposite direction of raspy four-cylinders and growling small blocks heading off to wage war at the strip, a coalescence of confused engine tenor fills the air. First, an exhaust note similar to that of a muffled, high-revving Ferrari V-6 grows in the distance. The unmistakable crack of pressurized air exiting a blow-off valve at throttle let-off cuts through it, followed by the rushing sound of boost building under a floored throttle as the beast nears-sonar evidence of turbocharging in the mix. Then, within sight if not for the white glare of HIDs, the scream of what sounds like a belt-driven supercharger straining to keep pace with five-digit rpm commands attention as a bright blue blur flies past at what seems like triple-digit speeds, its automotive symphony playing in reverse as it disappears from sight

This my friends, is NOT a ricer.

That is pure awesome-ness.

The late 80's RX7s are really unappreciated.

This car just screams out to me man. Keep your Porsches, your BMWs, your GT-Rs, give me a late 80's mid 90's Japanese sports car and about $30K and I'll have a monster that'll make all those cars tremble in fear. Granted they don't carry the same weight as saying you drive a Porsche but damn, are they special.

I have to agree, the late 80's and early 90's Jap sports cars have IT. Not sure what IT is, but I like it. The design of the body is great.

I absolutely LOVE the way our '87 300ZX looks and feels. Maybe one day I'll make it something even more special.
