What year diesel Rabbit did you have?

[VXjunky]

all the cars i listed, i currently own. The rabbit P-U, was always the gas model (1.6)...it was converted last year with a 1988 (1.9,fuel injected) jetta with 5 speed...although some 81's came with the 5 speed this one originally had a four speed....i love it...peppy little bugger..... the real mind blower is to be the samurai which is scheduled for the 1.9 vw turbo diesel conversion..when the well running 1.3 suzuki dies

Those are some GREAT cars, I strongly considered a Crossfire a few years ago but ended up buying a G35 coupe. A heavy factor in that decision was that I didn't want to settle for anything besides the SRT6, but it was MUCHO dinero considering my pay at the time.

And nice photochop too btw. :)

Thanks, but you probably made a more practical choice. Yeah, I had to laugh at some of the guys on the Crossfire forum for giving me a hard time for wanting a standard tranny instead of the only available automatic for the SRT6. I've always had an issue with automatics in a sports car, so I thought Rat Fink shifting my SRT was appropriate....

[cdvntx]

Yeah, I can't wait for top down weather. It's been up on blocks while I replaced the clutch slave cylinder. Bit of a chore as it is on the input shaft of the transmission.

Well, I have never actually driven a Boxster, but I did take a "test ride" in one. I admit, the shifting seemed pretty spirited. I could make an exception for that one, I think. The real performance cars probably have done a decent job designing an automatic transmission. And even I will admit there are days in freeway traffic when that shifting gets old. But I also tried to get the hang of manually shifting the Pacifica that the hubby had as a company car. Ugh. Especially up and down mountain roads. I swear you could make a sandwich between the time you shifted and the time it actually changed gears. :upsetwgra

Did you swap the SD motor in? The SD was only offered in 73-74. They listed it in the manual in '75 but it didn't meet emissions so it got dropped. They did have a 455 though in '76, love the Pontiac big blocks. I would love to get my hands on my uncle's '74, red with a shaker hood, 400, all original and low miles, has just been sitting in his garage for YEARS. That 455 bird (if all original) is one of about 7100 with that engine in '76 since it was the last year the 455 was offered. Got any pics of the rides?

[p_justin13]

Yes the S/D was an after the fact install made shaker intake functions ram air 4 heads with hurst shift kit on the manual tranny and of course no ac lol. It was originally 455 with 4speed no ac with black interior. Was the first car my dad bought new in 76 sat in a barn for 12 years and then I pulled out and restored. First car I ever had was a 69 SS 396 Camero that I bought for 6500 restored and sold for just under 30k which paid for the vette and the charger. Kicking myself though thing would have been worth so much more and I loved that damn thing. There up in the machine shed at the farm now but I think I have some pics laying around the office here that I can scan somewhere.

[RickOKC]

YUM! I have some friends who restored a 1968 Firebird a few years ago. The black paint job is so over-the-top perfect and glossy that it's hard to photograph. Once they finish their '78 Trans Am SE, they will probable convert the '68 from "original" to "slightly modified." They rarely drive the '68 because a black car in Oklahoma isn't really drivable without air conditioning during much of the year (oops). Plus they kept the inline 6 with the 2 speed Powerglide transmission. People often look at it say, "I bet that does one heck of a burnout" and Edie's response is "Uhhhh.... no, it's almost impossible to break traction." They have a spare 400 & the appropriate hood stored and waiting for some TLC. :)

Keep that OHC motor in there! You can hop those puppies up pretty good, throw a 4spd behind it and shock alot of people. Not sure if the company is still selling products but there was a stroker kit out there for the Pontiac 250ci OHC motor, they make camshafts for them, headers, intake manifolds etc. I loved my old 250, plus I like that "WTF" look when you pop the hood :bwgy: They had provisions for cross-bolted mains, a super stout bottom end stock. I want to build a turbo version, there is a supercharged Sprint 230ci motor on the web, minor mods (all things considered) and making 411hp!!

The bike averages out my owned vehicle mileage to about 38 mpg lol. First tank in the VX got 15, all short trips around town so far.

I've had my VX now for just over a week and have polished the headlights, fixed the driver window slow/seal issue (widened the track and lubed with silicone spray), added a small piece of felt to the larger recess in the center console (in front of the "cup holder"), cleaned the Dragon air filter, mounted my cell phone for nav and music access, and had just a blast driving it. Also, every day someone asks what it is (it is debaged) and some have been very disappointed that they can't get one. All have been impressed by its condition and styling. Next weekend I am taking her up to my brother-in-law's cabin in the mountains north of Silverthorne, CO. My first chance to take her off-road!

http://www.vehicross.info/gallery/data/2/IMAG00431.jpg

I would like to paint or otherwise redo the front of the hood. I've seen some nicely done jobs on the pics on this site. Need to think about that some more. If you're in the Front Range of Colorado and want to meet up for a VX meet/off-road run, send me a message.

Thanks! We certainly brought a bunch of stuff with us but we had two people on the bike rather than just one :) I envy Lois for being able to take such a light bike which handles a lot better in the rough stuff.

We've met Lois a couple of times as well while she was on her book tour for Red Tape White Knuckles (London to Cape Town) she's a really awesome woman.

We had plans to head down to Ushuaia (southern most city in South America) but ended up living for an extra 6 months in Central America instead. Get vehicles across the Darien Gap is rather expensive so when we decide to do it we plan to fly into Buenos Aires and buy a vehicle down there, hit Chile, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Bolivia, and Argentina before selling it and flying back.

Yeah I saw your ad on craigslist. I think you will have a hard time of it relying on a trade. I might have sent you an email about my for sale VX. I strongly suspect you will have to sell the Ram first then buy. Welcome to the community, and good luck with your hunt.

My other car is an 89 Corvette that I recently completed a frame-on restoration of. It's not old enough to pull the body, but it did need paint, interior and an engine refresh. (It's only got 60k on the body...but age finally catches up with a vehicle after 20+yrs.)

For the engine, I decided to build my first (and possibly only) performance motor. I built it with appearance, MPG, and emissions in mind (not typical for the sports car, performance-building community).

For now, I'll just post a couple of pics of the motor -- as it was the most complicated part of the restoration. I knew very little about performance building, computer tuning, engine porting and polishing before I started this project....

Time Attack Car? That's a new expression to me...sounds like it'll be fast enough to transcend the space/time continuum? :bwgy:

Either way, 700HP in any car has to be killer fast...probably into the 9's?

For shizzle, faster than mine. I'm at 440rwtq and 350 HP at 5k rpms. These long-runner intakes are torque monsters. (Torque peaks below 3500 rpms!) But still... not bad with my close-ratio 6-spd stick. Haven't run it for a time-slip...but it'll get to 60mph in about 4secs.

You are correct. 700AWHP with about 550AWTQ (about what i'm aiming for with a 2.3L boosting at 40psi on C16) will break into the 9's with a good driver but it will be built for the curves :)

Very, very nice! Bet that's a screamer below 80mph. Can it keep up with bikes?

Great job with the dash too!!!!

[CatFish]

I have never raced a bike or tried to chase one so I do not know if it can keep up or not, maybe it can pass them I do not know. I do not have any problem with acceleration when it is over 80mph, but I do not have a real need to chirp the tires when I am going 80mph either.

Thank for the dash complement, the dash was a custom creation by my brother.

The car is a lot of fun and it is getting more body mods and is at the body shop now. With the engine, transmission, suspension and 13” brake swap it is similar to the C4 Corvette drive train and braking but with the Fieros slightly lighter weight and shorter wheel base, and a roomier interior (no trans in the middle of the car). I always like the Corvette power train set up but I liked the Fiero GT styling better so I combine them to get my dream car. This is defiantly not a car for most people but it works for me. I get the same kind of reaction on the Fiero as people have toward the VX some people love it and think it is super cool and some people hate it so both cars are right up my alley. As soon as I get a VX I will have two cars that have people asking “what is that?”

[89Vette]

I do not have any problem with acceleration when it is over 80mph, but I do not have a real need to chirp the tires when I am going 80mph either.

That wasn't my point. I have an 89 -- which came with the same intake/setup. There was only about 10hp difference stock between 86/89. After I found little difference between 250hp hondas, acuras, etc...and a Corvette -- at hwy speeds, I wasn't as happy with the car. As you point out, yours is lighter and that matters. But, it will still matter more at lower rpms.

I learned a couple of things while having "fun" with an Acura TL owner on the way to the golf-course one early Sunday. I learned why demand for late 70's and 80's C4 Corvette's isn't all that high. Those TPIs are great for low/mid rpms...just not for a HP number. (This isn't an insult -- as you'll see I still have the same type intake pictured a page/two earlier in this thread. I just decided to cam it and stroke it too.) Remember the VX is stroked too!

I think the C4 is one of the best platforms for kit cars and the TPI (or LT) ZF6 is a great transplant for today's economy needs. I wish I had a ZF6 TPI in my VX. The torque (acceleration) would be much better, as would the MPGs. In a 3.4k lb car, that 6-sp gets 30mpg on the hwy. It also pulls 0-60 in 5.7secs. It's limitation is hwy/high-rpm performance.

In your lighter Fiero, I'm sure everything is more fun. If the motor is modified, maybe it's a blast. I never was one for chirping tires at high speed either, but I finally decided having more was necessary in today's market of 250hp family sedan -- economy cars.

Since the TPI shines best at lower rpms and is often referred to as the perfect truck engine, I think it would make the prime candidate for a VX powerplant. I think it would be more responsive and get the MPGs we all wish the VX could pull.

Again, I love what you did...It looks great. In fact, I'd love to drive it! I'm pretty sure I know what it can do!

<thumbs-up>

[CatFish]

98Vette, No problem here, I did not even think you were making a point and I did not take anything you said as an insult or anything like that, I was just telling my reasons for making my Fiero the way I did and why I did what I did. I was just telling about what my dream was and that is all. I am glad everyone does not like what I like or what you like if they did it would it would not fun or unique, we would all drive Subarus, VWs or something more practical. I was just kidding around about the chirping the tires and passing bikes and stuff, I guess I should put :) and stuff in my posts so it does not seem so serious, sorry if it seemed that way. I was just kidding around. No offense taken and none given.

Thanks for the complements on my car,
Chris

MB CL600, which you guys have seen before (http://www.vehicross.info/forums/showthread.php?p=248403#post248403). It's my other daily driver when the VX is napping or under the knife.

I thought that at 63 I might have been the oldest on here, so glad you 'fessed up.
I hope I still have my VX at 77 - hell even 87 and going strong.

See, there's three of us right here that get no age representation because the poll stops at 51+. C'mon, expand it there could be someone older than I. Doubtful but possible.

[PontiacPureBred]

Currently my garage if full of big piles of CRAP I have no room for elsewhere, long story. BUT In the driveway there's a 2004 Grand Prix GT2, 2005 GTO and a 2008 Ford Explorer Limited
Hoping to add a 2001 Proton VX (Or what ever color I can find that I like) :D

[dietz99vcross]

I also think another age group should be added, but for more vain reasons. I am about to enter the 51 and over group which just makes me feel weird.

[Cobrajet]

I was in the under 50 category when I answered this poll, but I'm well into the 51+ group now. Can't change my answer, but willing to bet if another age group added (65+) I'll be in that group eventually. :)

I agree there are few +51 and fewer girls or should we say women especially over 51 I am 50 and female so my group is very small but that is just fine by me. I am good with it as I am wiser, richer and happier than I was when I was younger.

Love my 2001 VX Ebony and my super modified V8 Fiero, both 2 door small and fun in different ways and yet the same in other ways.

With the exception of the 16-20 and 51+ groups the ratio of women to men is approximately 1:10 in each age group.

Wow. Seriously out of date.

99 Amigo with 3.2L as my DD. Black LineX'd all over. Also as 'TOAD' behind RV.

99 Ebony VX for Boy (it WILL be running by summer).

[ipd]

Sorry, but if your 3000GT was a POS, that means that the previous owner was a tool-bag. As long as you do the Mx on them regularly, they're VERY reliable. In that respect, they're like a VX. If you find one ragged to hell and expect to work wonders--you've got a constant uphill battle.

1988 Ford Escort 4-door. Rusted out POS that still got 30MPG. Sold to my dad, totaled by an idiot teenager in a hit & run.

1995 Mitsubishi GTO. My 1st Japanese Halo car--still ragged on by everyone who has never owned one. Turbo 6-cylinder AWD hatchback--how many other models with those specs even exist? 200,000 miles and counting. Awaiting a 3.5L twin 16G build, expecting 600AWHP on pump gas & mild boost.

1994 Kia Sephia. I'd still be driving this instead of a VX if it wasn't eurospec & I could have imported it. I got it as a 1 owner car with 30,000 miles on it--for $2,000. Still waiting on a buyer in Deutschland.

1999 Isuzu Vehicross. My 2nd Japanese Halo car. Kinda wish I'd found a Proton like Ganzman's. I had so many deals fall through & dealerships not wanting to wiggle on price--so I jumped on this one with both feet (with Jo's help). Wife is already ready to string me up for buying it, then dropping a lot more on getting to tip-top mechanical shape. Will be my new DD when I get to SLC. Only mods will be purely cosmetic; no mechanical alterations. I plan to run this into the ground.
