Lots of regular daily driver type cars along the way too, but that's the majority of the fun stuff.

Re: What Other Cars have You Had?
 

When you lived in Japan?

Nope, had a legit R34, and a Mitsu built Mini clone (they built them under license to the old Mini company - Cooper, I believe, but they had a Mitsu built 1.6 or 2.0 in them) when I lived in Misawa, didn't even add them to the list, totally forgot!

Re: What Other Cars have You Had?
 

Nice. I forgot, a 240sx was actually a 180 in Japan...

I hate you.

Damn, you lived up in the cold area, I was in Kansai 20 years ago. Much better weather.

Way up North man! We had a ski hill right on base and got to use it every Winter. I worked there as a civilian DoD contractor for Lockheed in the late 80's. Even bought a house while I was there (cheaper than renting at the time). Recently sold the house to the AF family that had been in it since I left in '92. Would love to travel back someday and see all the old sites.

It wasn't the same back then as it is now. It was just another car at the time. The locals didn't like them much, at least where I was (400 miles North of Tokyo). I ended up selling it and getting a Nissan S'Cargo so I could carry groceries and things.

They seemed much more impressed with the Mini, or the '85 VF1000R Interceptor I had shipped in from the States (Japanese citizens, at that time, couldn't legally own a motorcycle larger than 250cc).

You were lucky you could afford to buy, it must have been cheaper up there. I was in Kansai at the same time period and housing prices were crazy.

I had a ZZR 750 but it had to be double exported to buy it. Loophole in the law.

My roommate and I were paying almost $500 a month for rent. Landlord came by one day and was talking about selling the place, we asked how much. Under $20k (roughly 1200 sf, typical 3/4 scale stuff, 7 foot ceilings and 6 foot doors, I felt like a giant over there! LOL!). We got it financed through Bank Of Fort Sam Houston (base bank at the time) and the rest was history. Mortgage ended up at $200 a month for 15 years. Roommate got fired a year later (odd, since his dad was our HR guy) and moved back to the States, so I bought him out at that time. Held on to it until last year, when I sold it for appraised value (right at $60k). Nice little investment in the end. Kind of planned on retiring there though, so I guess that's out now.

What happend to the EVO and RSX???? I see you loved imports too

Downtime,

Most of us between 25 and 35 dreamed of Supras, EVOs, and R34s. I honestly had no interest in muscle cars until this current generation because imports always handled better. But they were untainanble for me and automakers have since A. Stopped making them or B. they now cost over $100k because the muscle cars have caught up. What was it like driving the R34?

First off, I guess I better clarify somewhat, what I had was an R32. I don't think the R34's even came out until around '99, and I was long since home by then. Sorry for the confusion. Mine was all stock as well, as there really wasn't a "tuner" market yet at that time. So, AWD and a blistering (IIRC) 300 hp, it wasn't exactly slow, but after having a steady diet of American muscle for years up to that point, it felt a bit anemic. The handling, on the other hand, was something that up to then, I had never experienced. I had a Corvette or two by then, but this chassis was light years ahead of anything we had over here. I wouldn't mind getting another now really, but the gray market thing has made them damn near impossible to get now. Maybe an importer through Canada?

I saw an R32 for sale at this small shop near DFW Airport about 2 years ago. I was completely blown away. It was just parked outside. I had to stop and look at it. A girl came out asking if I wanted to buy it. Said it was legal. I asked about the price(I was not in the market at all as I still was financing the Corvette) but they wanted $30k. I just said nah. Did get to drive it. It was a single turbo, but the wiring under the hood was a complete mess. It wasn't a GTR either, it was a GTS. Nice car but $30k for a backyard wired 1994 GTS, no thanks.

The Rsx was full Aspec kit and suspension only. Great track car. The Evo I loved but it was just not a gd daily at the time, With boltons it made 320whp. Havent driven anything that handled like it since.

My dad had one with the Gigantic snake spider on the hood LOL

I still love this car! And I was hoping for some insight as to the origin of your screen name with this post. Was there a 4.6 T Bird in the mix somewhere?

That would be a 1978 King Cobra. The guy that owns that black one (Denny) had one exactly like this in high school. Orange, with T-tops, and a muscular 139hp 302 2bbl and C4 auto. And the best part, 13" wheels, lol!

Buy it! There wasn't a 4.6 T Bird in the group, but there was a 460-bird. ;)

I bet that turbo 460 Tbird was an absolute blast to drive.
