Yep. Possibly back again, lol. Got ridiculously busy and uninterested because of work. Got my license back (WOOOOOO). Then the RTA (Roads and Traffic Authority- same as USA's DMV) took it off me for another 3 months. BOOO. Demerit point related, dont worry, I didnt do anything silly. Stupid technicality, unfortunately... Oh well. 2 weeks in, almost half way there! :D

 

But yeah. As I said a while ago, I broke my monitor, i've been using a crappy 4:3, 17-18" CRT TV for a few weeks now. Not the best, but its something... Decided to try some photos on it. Eh, you be the judge :) (When i say photos, I mean just one photo)

I've been obsessing over 4AGE engines thanks to my Levin, so I decided to build this. Had to hear and control the venerable 4AGE rasp. My 240hp formula atlantic replica engined AE86 :) what a car... if anyone wants engine build specs just ask, happy to oblige. You could apply them to the AW11 MR2 as well, same engine, just the MR2 is supercharged hehehe.

WOO not yet with the times! Been watching a lot of Petrolicious on youtube lately, plus i've been feeling creative and artistic again :)

 

Couple of cars I wanted to take photos of forever, but could never do justice to- ironically, similar cars, in ways beneath the skin. Both twin cam 1.6 litre engines, both rear wheel drive, both very lightweight coupes- thats a whole bunch of my favourite things right there.

 

Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA

:) Yep, i'm still around, busy with work 90% of the time so I don't get to take any photos, but i've really put in the effort this time and tried really hard at pushing the boundaries of what FM4 can do, and I like the results- expect more like this from me soon, i've got another few cars I want to do.

Decided to try something a little different. I'm pretty sure i've tried stuff like this in the past.

 

 

 

(in your best over-exaggerated Japanese accent please)

90's JDM Suzuka Challenge

11926440055_139823a8e4_c.jpg

This is a collection of 10 of my favourite Japanese cars, test driven in stock form by me, to see how they go. These cars were pretty cutting edge in their day (some much more than others).

 

11926712723_0e356e5c48_c.jpg

1992 Toyota MA70 Supra Turbo

One of my favourite Toyota land-yachts (of which there are many). This thing is boaty, no doubt about it. Even with that, its not overly understeer or oversteer prone, suprisingly balanced, easy enough to kick sideways enough to get you around a tight corner but hard to lose control in a normal corner, unless your going way too hard.

 

Best lap- 2:42.886

 

11927309166_00eedcdd58_c.jpg

1999 Honda AP1 S2000

The S2000 is grippy, but once the tyres are heated, it is easy to overdo it in tight sections. Having such a high red line is great, combined with good gear ratios, it accelerates well off the line and out of corners. Fun to drive, somewhat oversteer prone- quite easy to accidently kick sideways.

 

Best lap- 2:31.961

 

11926898184_8022e75c07_c.jpg

1995 Toyota SW20 MR2 GT

The MR2 has a bit of an understeer problem, but still grips if you are careful with it. Very easy to get comfortable over a lap, then overshoot the first corner... Is easy to unbalance and send off the track in the opposite direction to where you wanted to go. Bad gear ratios. Still fun, but tuning helps.

 

Best lap- 2:36.333

 

11926900554_eac754099c_c.jpg

1992 Toyota ST165 Celica GT-FOUR

On cold tyres, not a particularly fun car to drive. Slow off the mark due to turbo lag, lack of overall power and long gear ratios like the MR2. Once you give it a lap to get used to it, and warm it up, its a blast for a D class car. It inspires a lot of confidence, it grips pretty well, and if you go hard it lets you chuck it around. Reminds me a lot of my Corolla actually (not my Levin, i'm sure it's better than my Corolla- havent actually driven it yet!).

 

Best lap- 2:39.831

 

11926712063_416959b332_c.jpg

1997 Nissan R33 Skyline GTR V-Spec

Unlike most, I actually prefer the R33 to the R32 and R34 GTR Skylines. Did you know, despite it being bigger and heavier, the R33 lapped the Nordschliefe faster then the R32, in its pre-release testing? As expected, its AWD system makes short work of the tightest corners, pulling out hard in first gear at Suzukas hairpin with no loss of grip. There is a little turbo lag, and its gear ratios are probably a little long but it still accelerates well.

Best lap- 2:30.043

 

 

 

 

:) hope you enjoyed the first part of this article, ill have the second part up later in the week.

I like your thinking Diablo, at the moment i'm just doing a couple of hot laps in each car to see how they feel and get the fastest lap I can, but after I've done the last lot, i'll have a race with the lot of them, and... well, we'll see how it goes :D best motoring style
