The nissan 200sx that were locally sold here were all with a 2.0liter turbo model and A/T except for 2 models with a M/T instead of an A/T. I saw the M/T model do some laps at BRC and it was only a few seconds behind the lap times of the evo's. mind you this 200sx was all stock.

That would be ur best bet there ODELL , th 200SX with sr20dett motor , if u plan to go power over pose .

BULGE sa hoods ng Mitsu Eclipse ay due to the desiign of the cam gears na masyado siyang mataas na tatama na sa hood thats why the hood has this weird bulge , ma NA or TC man ay meron lahat nito .

To tell the Eclipse GST and GSX models ( 4G63 ) sa lower models na GS and RS ( 4A20 ) , the GST and GSX has dual tips on the stock muffler unless pinalitan ito at sa bilis na lang nito malalaman mo.

panu pag matic kaya?.hehehe

DSM619,

matic?. hehehe

[mbt]

ipapangkarera mu ba yan? okay na rin naman yung matic for the street

we owned an eclipse before we upgrade to an audi tt..

the eclipse has a nice ride.. parang flat ka at mabigat although if u want seat of the pants ride sa acceleration u can still get it kahit matic..lalo na kung sumipa na yung turbo.. dahil we had it for mga 4 years..naglabasan na ang mga prob niya sa 4th yr niya with us (typical of a jap car) ano nga ba mga nangyari dun.. ah...overheating.. may carnap attempt pa pla! nabali yung door handle mechanism plastic lang kasi parang sinungkit.. we had to buy the damn handle assembly sa japan.. bad trip din yun i had to open the car sa right side before we finally got the assembly..isa pa pla kapag naabutan ka ng baha...ikaw ang unang malulunod!

the audi naman is lighter.. ride is firmer.. yung acceleration niya hindi seat of the pants kundi smooth and its loud inside..rinig mo talaga yun vvrrrooomm ehehehe..pero mga chicks nakatingin sayo lahat..ehehee.. i think we're gonna sell it soon.. mga nov./dec. baka palitan ng benzo...

[inigo]

try m holden manaro, v8 un d k lng alam kung me benta gray market, but it is a beautiful car. Try buying australian car magazine. Baka meron article and holden manaro. Pag nag accelerate un ganda ng tunog, buong buo, lakas din ng engine, it can outrun most japanese sportcars, d lang nya kaya un evo o impreza kac sub 6 na ang 0-100 ng mga yan.

Im not familiar sa mga models sa NISSAN kung ano ang motors that comes with it . Anyways , ok lang naman ang automatic transmission for daily driving lalo na sa long driving pero its always the stick shifts has the edge of matic transmissions in terms of launching and acceleration kung sa karera .

Kung may kasamang chix ka , matic na para instead na shift ka ng gear , iba ang ii-shift mo ODELL .... Bwehehehe .


MOnaros ay maganda , nakita ko ang COMMODORE model ba yun ?? Pero like most tuners would say , there is no replacement for displacement , gas guzzlers ang V8 .

[ale828]

The Monaros are LHD only lang yata, but i read in a magazine that Gm plans to market the monaro to the US as a Pontiac gand prix yata.

I believe na RHD ang ibig mo na sabihin .


Marami pa talagang choices ang coupes , it just depends sa budget ng bulsa , basically most 2 doors na sportscars . From compacts to exotics .

[mazdamazda]

if u want one right now... here's what i suggest... depends on your budget too... price range is from 500K to 1.5M

Hyundai Triburon, looks good and power is decent in paper... don't have enough info on handling but i've heard that it is gas guzzler... price is also unbelievable! (1.5M?)

BMW Z3, second hand of course! plus 1M pogi points! although it looks flimsy with the soft top on... (1M++)

Mazda Miata, the world's number one selling roadster! great handling but the engine is almost the same as our 323... a turbo / supercharger upgrade can answer that... a local group, Miata Club of the Phil, can also help you in upgrading your ride(500K)

Mitsubishi Eclipse, still looks great after all these years! chick magnet... (900K)

but if you can wait it out for just a few more months, here's what might hit our shores soon...

Mazda Miata, with the implementation of the new Excise Tax scheme, expect it to come in with a bigger engine... price might be a tad above P1M

Mazda RX-8, a few of these might hit our shores to boost up Mazda's image as the demand for these is high abroad... price might be sub P2M...

[DSM619]

Yup , maganda ang tiburon for the power and package it got for the price it sells . Not sure sa Pilipinas but the 04 Tiburon sa US ay V6 , 6 speed manual , 5 speed auto , 17 inch wheels , carbon fiber look interior , racing bucket seats and tuned exhaust .For under $18,000 .

eclipse goes for mga 650-700 na lang..
