Seems no one on this board has an ae111....

well, im cozmo.. i live in new zealand, dunedin, recently picked this girl up... for $9,000 NZ ($4,500 US), and im paying it off weekly...

she drives well, pulls hard at roughly 5k revs upwards... really, pulls you back above then, feels very wrong, a turbo you hear it spool, a big displacement car you feel the really powerful torque.

in this car it just seems to start pulling quite hard at 5k revs... dosnt seem right... its ment to be a smooth torque band in 1.6 's :p

for a stock wee motor she goes well, dosnt use much fuel less i Hoof it, and has shamed many a gtx familia... BAHA turbo mazdas seem to suck.... discluding rotors :p.

i plan to turbo it, with 8.5 compression 4agze forged internals.. just gotta pay it off yet >.> god damn no money

anyway, specs on the car:
1.6L 4age Blacktop 20 v vvt (Map sensor version).

car has 17" advanti racing mags (as pictured), and a 5zigen exhaust (2 and a quarter).

pictures:



Front of the car.. aww isnt she pretty.



The arse end, you can see in front my first car (this being my second), a 1.8L 4wd Turbo Subaru leone Rx 1 :)



Aww the preddy internior



Mags



guage cluster, yay for high revs :D

welcome to TN

Trueno all the way!

whats the G.V.W.R on these?
be low as, they only go quick with no one in them.. kinda sux when you have your mates and wanna show how powerful your car is >.>

meh, i flagged a vtec integra 1992 (old shape), i think it was 92...

anyway, with 3 ppl in the car, and the car was really suffering from weight.

anyone know if racing seats really weigh much less?
Very nice trueno :cool:

it all depends on how much you wanna spend on a racing seat?
i have racing seats in my room and they weigh less... a hell of alot less then my GTS seats i can sure tell ya that. you could get 14lbs racing seats but your looking at like $1000usd for one

buy a CF hood first and remove the shit on your car you dont want or need
Nice Trueno :thumbup:
Where abouts in Dunedin are ya? I lived in Beaumont for a while, use to hitch hike to Rays Junction and Dunedin for supplies and such.

...I miss Speights. :chug:
Verrry nice. Man, did we here in N. America ever get shafted eh?
i live in st kilda...

yeh, speights.. everyone loves it.... and only we get it ^_^.

yeh damn right you lot did!, i love my trueno :D.

yeh, must lose extra weight... hmmm

hmm
any other ways to make the car excedingly quick?

perfect handeling in it means i can beat most people around corners, car has little to no sway (none you can feel), and soon will be gone,... new anti sway bars (TRD) :D
Wow very nice, Could this be imported or will it not pass safety standards? What keeps this car out of the US?
i dont know to be honest, same reason you guys dont get skylines?

It will pass safety... just not emmissions, NZ has no EGR.
we will next year! very very crap ones :D

which will mean, rotorarys will need to have cats.... other than that, everything will pass :D.

meh, i work at a garage, so ill always pass a warrent, i could make it run rich as and still pass a warrent :D

you guys get s13 and s14 silvias over there?
