[DanSW20]

ive been mostly driving MR2 turbos for the past 5 years although i did have an fto for 6 months.
heres a photo history of my last 3 cars and current car i picked up yesterday, i wont go in detail about them unless asked.

1992 GTS turbo t-bar

1996 manual FTO GPX

Some very nice motors. Great looking Evo youve now got.
How did you manage to mangle the fto like that!

 

[1982ollie]

Hi Mate and Welcome - Some very nice motors you have had there indeed - You are def in the right place for advise and help.

 

[stevolution2010]

hello fellow v driver,i also would like to know how u mangled the fto but more importantly how ur alive to tell the tale that was some serious carnage there fella

nice mr2`s by the way!

 

[m7gsr]

Nice V you have there mate

 

[stevolution2010]

oh by the way buddy if u want that v to look awesome then get a set of comp mo`s 18 in white it will look fantastic and get her lowered

 

[DanSW20]

thanks for the welcome and comments

witht the fto i was basically on my way to work, country road at about 60-70 leptons, went round a left hand bend and there was a tractor sat there doing about 10-15mph.
i read the road, if he were to attempt to go a little faster ie. 20-25mph then i would have seen him from the previous long straight and i wouldn't have skidded onto the wrong side of the road and had a head on with a volvo.

i admit it was my fault, and ive learnt alot from it... although the statement of the tractor driver says he was 100 yards in front of me and his young niece also said 100 YARDS (funny, i thought they learn metric nowadays!).
now if he was 100 yards ahead, this wouldn't have happened, he would have been round the next bend!...

the recovery garage thought i was dead and were shocked to see me walk in for my personal items from the car! i suffered from a broken collar bone, a hole between my chin and bottom lip, deep cut just above my eye, deep cuts on both my knees and loosing my 2 front teeth (one was ripped out forwards, one was fired up behind my nose),anyway, 4k of dental treatment later i have front teeth again!

i originally didnt want another yellow car, but it was the best i viewed.

i agree, they would look good, im keeping it standard for now though, im enjoying stock suspension after driving round on coilovers for the best part of 2 years..especially as my coilies were twice the stiffness of tein ones!

 

[stevolution2010]

bloodyhell mate that made me cringe reading that glad ur ok an glad uve learnt ur lesson,keep it for the track eh mate?

 

[DanSW20]

most definitely steve! really want to test the handling in a track environment, i dont trust the roads at all.
my view now is, if you cant see it, its a hazard!

 

[stevolution2010]

there will be plenty of shows next year get urself along mate i went to santa pod yesterday got to reay open her up

 

[DanSW20]

will do definitely mate, i must admit i will miss the back stepping out and counter steering with the mr2, but im also looking forward to the levels of grip on track at the same time!

 

[youngy_315]
