haha I might have a drinkin prob now and if i start workin for beer im gona become a full blown alcoholic. funny thing is, is i had to go to a M.A.D.D meeting tonight. ( court makin me do it. D.U.I. ) im tryin to decide what color racing seats for my vert. Blue Red or Black. 7 is black on black now. Oh by the way. the new vette ZR1 is NASTY. 620hp 220mph. LS9 6.2ltr. had to throw that out there. I think its gay that Mazdas main powerplant is in the Speed 6 and not in the rx8. Were's the 8s turbo!?
i was wacthing top gear a week or so ago and they where driveing a mazda 6 it was awd and turbo i dont know much about othere mazda's but are they all awd turbo(talking about the 6) . think they said it was a mvp 6.
since you live in mass you can under stand why id like a awd during the winter. i drive a mercury grand ma car(4.6 v8 rwd) and it sucks when i go to my buddys place in nh. no lie its like a 45 deg hill sucks when its snowing i have to get a running start and by the time i get to his drive way iam about to start spinning my tires and slideing back down the hill.
any one know a cheap gas freindly winter car thats awd, some thing mid 90's thats not a boxer.
i have to admit that one day i pulled in to the parking lot near my house where every one goes to do brake stands it was pretty fun. a group of 17 year olds set up a drift course with cones ect. the sad thing was a bunch of the kids where driveing hondas and ripping the e brake. my buddy was there with his 240z old school and was showing what drifting was. a bunch of the kids where giveing me **** for my car. then poped my hood and they saw it was a v8 rwd with side pipes that shoots flames. i never tired drifting in this car but i gave it a shoot since its a auto it didnt do so good but at least i was drifting and not ripping the ebrake.

nah not all the 6s are awd.i dont even know if u can get em at the dealership. prob have to order. only cheap awd i can think of is obv subies or a truck. not much else. im drivin a 95 Buick LeSabre. SHITBOX! wicked bad fuel problem.
Ben, do you have something against Subarus? Other options, other than trucks, are Audi's, Eclipse GSX, Mazda 323, BMW 325ix, 'Benz 4matics, 3000GT VR4, and Galant VR4's. I just picked up an Audi A4 1.8T with Quattro and a 5spd. It needs a bit of work and it has high miles so I picked it up really cheap. I stopped at the ATM after the test drive and then paid cash, it was that cheap. Perfect winter beater.

dude Pete, nice find. but please tell me the FD is going to be terrorizing by spring! I've been thinking of looking into maybe a gallant vr4 as a winter beater.
ROCK TEH SUBARU!!!!
LS1's are for guys who cant handle a rotary :P
even turboing an 8 wont produce much power cause they're high compression N/A so they cant handle much power. Ironically, the RX8 used in the American D1GP uses a 13B-REW with a Apexi RX-6 Single Turbo.

i am now 22 years old today 1-21-08 and my car is 28 lol.
Gensai you could swap in different rotors, to get lower compression. but you could make the power with less psi. thats what they guy from rotaryshack told me when i asked him about makeing a 12a turbo since the 12at rotors are so rare.
i like wrx's and all cars they make. i just dont like there motors because of cost of labor. my cuz owns Little Foreign Car Garage in Waltham, Mass. http://www.lfcg.com/
my brother and best freind yd(the red head i was with at the cape meet) both worked there. i told them how i was thinking of getting a older Subaru Impreza . then they brought home that book that list labor rates on them and i all most ****.
doing simple things take so much longer on them just because its harder to reach the parts and you have to remove one part to get to another. same thing with out a few othere cars the labor rates on them are to much for me to afford if my car breaks down.
Mazda 323 are awd? what years ect.
i saw some thing on the net a few days ago which made me think, it was a late 80's or early 90's Subaru that they put a 13b in.http://cp_www.tripod.com/rotary/pg04.htm
it stayed awd. i was thinking since iam going to keep the 12a thats in my car after i replace it with the one iam buying iam gonna have a spare 12a. if any one knows how to make a 12a/13b to the tranny of a Subaru and make a carb 12a start in the winter i mite do it. yes iam crazey.
yes iam hung over
