ecc0 Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hey Jase, Yeah i cant believe i didnt switch earlier. I LOVE rear wheel drive. Loved my wrx too, but now i just look back and shake my head in shame! Dont miss the turbo at all, however... i did get offered a turbo kit recently. Shame my student loan is so huge! Think that has to come first! L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RESIST Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Hey what happened to the good old days with ASL? Jokes all. Good to have you aboard Lisa! Welcome to the crew, and look forward to seeing you at a gathering some stage. I guess you will have pics loaded also in the near future; either gallery or garage? Well anyways good to have you here.

Turbo tezza Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 I switched from a wrx aswell :D seems a pretty common thing to do I couldn't get rid of the turbo tho, the only reason i switched... well 1 of the biggest reasons anyway ;) Lots more power with a turbo-charged 1, bout 50 kw. Which is wot most of them need to perform the way they should B) Corey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4ROLLN Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 yeah I can't beleive the altezza wasnt available from the factory with a turbo optioned motor. imagine just how popular they would have been then! I came from an Evo 4 and theres just no replacing the power of a turbo so I rely on good looks now. Its all I have left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecc0 Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 My reason... well they are an awesome car to drive. Loving rear wheel drive, loving 6 gears, love the tail lights, and love not having to deal with the hassles of a turbo! Having real bad luck with it though, hit a pothole on my way to tauranga and bent my mag. Seriously annoyed! Anyone keen to sell me (for a reasonable price) a standard wheel?

RESIST Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 Honda's aint that bad! I drove a V-Tec for couple years, shat on most things. Def faster than the Altezza but looks are much better now. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voiceinsideyou Posted June 26, 2004 Share Posted June 26, 2004 I loved my first car, a Honda Civic Si I had for 6 years and only just recently sold - and it shat on the Altezza 0-50kmh :D That sucks ecc0, seriously bad luck :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmalar Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 I have heard Honda's are pretty good, a lot of my friends drive Honda's.. Everything from HRV's to s2000's and most report good experiences.. My car prior to the IS200 was a '62 Chev Belair and that rocked!! Am keeping my eyes open for a '63 Impala to start as a project :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
