So it all started with a red 1990 Toyota Tercel.




and that had to go for lack ot funds and a horrible floor, I gave it to my highschool as a project and I'll update you with recent pictures of it.

Then came the almighty FLAMING CRESSIDA!!!!!





Wich as I moved it from that very spot, burst into flame... good thing it was free RIP

so after that we moved onto my week long love affair with a Chevy Caprice Classic



I sold that beast cause I couldn't afford the gas for the big ol 302 so I got my 500 bucks and was out of the car game for a while untill!

The AE86







I loved this car and I regret every minute I traded it for a crappy AE92

The Crappy AE92...

I loved this car and it gave me the V-Dub fever that I havent cured since, I had two of these but one was a parts car. I lost this one in a legal battle over a purchase of a VW Puma that I never received, last I heard my Fox spewed its bottom end all over the 401, the rebel car it is haha

then we went through a dry spell of work and I got a job at Whitby Toyota, and needing transport forced me into this b***h...

The Camry

The worst of the rust spots, it's starting to lift the bondo and paint so a redo is in the future

My next big mod! I'm going to try and hide it under the dash or somewhere discreet. Funny how a bottle of coke has the same displacement as my engine

Posted by: Jolteon Apr 26 2010, 09:25 PM

is the M4 mandatory in canada too?

Posted by: ChevyRacer454 Apr 26 2010, 10:13 PM

you should have kept the big bad caprice

i regret not getting my moms caprice as a hand me down. it would have been the perfict project car to my grandpa kept it very clean and it was from the dakota's so little if any rust. it needed new rims, preformance parts, and some driveline and suspention work but it so would have been worth it, to also paint it solid black i'd keep the grey vynal top, and the red side pinstripe, maybe convert the interior to be red to but blue wasn't bad.

man i miss that car.

Posted by: PurePontiacKid Apr 27 2010, 04:20 AM

I hate you and all your awesome stickers... I'mma have to drive up there sometime so we can hang out and have some bromance and you can gibe meh some stickarzzz lol

Posted by: Yoda Apr 27 2010, 05:56 AM

Come on up Ian, I have more stickers to go! The M4 isn't mandatory but is psycho fun, full auto, the shotgun is fun too and dont get me started about the pistols under the seats haha

The convertible BBQ tow car was my old AE92 Corolla I gave my highschool to work on, the exaust is a straight-pipe through the hood in the shape of a cross and the trunk is a huge fridge haha

So some idea for the future?

i almost bought a cressida at one point

Posted by: Yoda May 1 2010, 05:03 AM

So today I took the go-train (transit around here) to Toronto from my city of Pickering, I parked my car at noon beside two Honda Civics, both 2007 to 2009 body style

I get back at midnight to see a note on my car saying I hit a car next to me and I should pay for the damages and that the police have been notified... cause you know I definatly hit a car as I parked.... and totally was stupid enough to still park next to it...


Oh how I hate people...

Posted by: Angrybooger2 May 1 2010, 05:16 AM

ahahahahahaha that's cool bro. find the person and hit actually hit them with the yota

Posted by: Hellrazr May 1 2010, 05:26 AM

you were in my Neck of the woods hahahaha i had a note like that and i had a chick right her number in lip stick on my windshield

Posted by: Yoda May 3 2010, 05:17 AM

Talked the girl out of it, proved it wasn't my car too, it was sweet, sometimes the truth works!

however on the downside my car cacked a fuel pump today....

Posted by: Yoda May 18 2010, 12:50 AM

The Camry is on it's death bed.

The last week and a half I have been power shifting, I think I blew out the clutch slave or a sized the throw-out bearing... either way I can't afford to fix it if it needs the tranny to be dropped so there may be a new car in the stable soon

every... gear... grinds....

Posted by: Rywired May 18 2010, 02:16 AM

Goddamn James quit killin your cars man!

Get another Cressida!

Posted by: PurePontiacKid May 18 2010, 04:10 AM

Really James? I woulda thought you knew that you can shift without using the clutch... and have it work almost normally... I do it all the time in my Z lol

Posted by: Yoda May 18 2010, 08:08 AM

Oh don't get me wrong, I have it shifting almost normally, just a royal pain.
