Been a long time...

What's up, all.. It's been almost a year since I've posted anything on here. The new baby has taken up most of my time. Just wanted to drop in and say hi. Here's a pic of my FD and my father's chipped/liquid intercooled Esprit V8.

Cheers!

His. I had boost issues for a while. When I finally figured it out, my daughter was about to be born. I'm still running stock boost. Haven't had time to mess with it in the past year.

I'll post pics of his other car when I find them. He has a Westfield Super 7 with a turbocharged Hayabusa motor in it. The whole thing weighs 928lbs and he dynoed at 352rwhp @ 7psi.. The thing is pretty insane. Our family is a bunch of speed freaks.

My brother is working on his 1978 Datsun 280z.


Here's the motor he's dropping in it.

Is your family interested in adoption? I keep to myself mostly, and I don't eat much...

Grand father was an Airforce Pilot trainer, father loved boats, son loves Rx-7's that is the evolution of my family.

The Lotus is sweet the guy I bought my first FD from had one just like it but his was a 2001 V8 3.5 TT stock. I am happy my family hates cars so noone will touch mine!

Nice FD by the way subtle yet aggressive.

It's pretty cool that my family likes cars. Gave my brother and I something in common with my father. My mom could really care less.. We just like to modify everything we have. She'd rather drive her SUV than the MR2. She stopped liking it when we installed an aftermarket BOV.. "Why does my car sound like it's breathing when I shift? It's embarrassing!"

you couldnt touch the car for a year because of your baby? .... not even an hour to your self to look at the car or anything you'v been with her for every minute of her life and you never had a break?

My daughter was 2 months premature which means she was in the hospital for 2 months. I was at the hospital everyday after work. When she finally came home late August all I wanted to do was spend time with her and make sure she was healthy. Premature babies are more susceptible to catching colds and other sicknesses.

November gets cold here which means the FD is off insurance and goes into hibernation.. Covered and in a locked shed. Doesn't get warm until May. This isn't Florida.

One day you'll find something more important than your car.
