My daily 06 300 awd on Niche 20x9 and BC coils

 

My daily driver pile of ****. 02 5 speed LSD. Bought from the original owner about 3 years back with the window sticker and a binder full of everything ever done to the car. Hands down the best daily driver I've owned.

 

Recently my buddy picked up one of these to replace his evo, plan is to do a 2jzgte swap and have a fun high powered sedan. just got to get the barn finshed than we start the tear down. seems like a nice small luxury/sports car

 

Awesome. I've toyed with the idea of an NA-T build a few times, but admittedly bought the MSM to force me to not mess with a car for a change lol. They're great cars and your buddy is going to love his.

 

1976 Chevy c10. rust remediated with a stock-ish 350
2018 WRX Premium. The reason I want to boost the Miata

 

Good choice! My dd is a '16 WRX (tuned to ~19psi, 3'' TBE, verticooler, and few other odds and ends). Not the most comfortable thing in the world but definitely a fun all-around type car.

 

It's a wonderfully fun car, but I was unsure of the longevity, so we decided to lease. Due to that, I probably will keep it stock, so they don't deny me when it breaks under warranty.

 

I picked up this 2004 Lexus GX470 in May for 8k with 110k on it. This is my second one, really nice rides. Swapped out the air suspension for a Dobinson lift. These are basically a fully loaded V8 4runner, with a larger front ring gear and 3rd row, seats 8.

 

^Did the Lexus get the 5spd before the 4Runner did?

I had an '07 4Runner Limited that had every option but the rear air suspension, I miss that truck.

 

All Gen4 V8 Runners have the 5spd, as do all GX470s.

 

I thought the early V8 non-VVTi engines had the 4 speed transmission.

So I have a debate going on in my head, that I was hoping to get some other opinions on.

Current daily is a 2007 Honda Fit. A little small, but we make it work even with three car seats.

I'm wanting to start towing to track events, and have been looking at GMT800 Suburbans (primarily the 3/4 tons). While I can afford to have both vehicles, I'm wondering if it might not be a better idea to sell the Fit should I end up getting the 'burb. I only drive about 6,000 miles a year so the proceeds from selling the Fit should cover a little over 4 years of the additional gas costs, probably a little more since I might start driving the Miata more. Biggest downside is I work downtown and parking would not be fun, but I can deal with that.

 

Sounds good

 

Nah just the early V6s had the old A340. All the V8s have the 5spd.

Tundra/Sequoia/Land Cruiser were the only 2uz things to ever get the A340 to the best of my knowledge.

 

Just picked up this bad boy over the weekend. 15 TDI Golf Sportwagen with a 6 speed manual. Had 17k miles on it (almost 19k now).



Stats from my trip, bought it in Chicago-flew up Friday night after work and drove it back to South Florida this weekend.



For me, I can't find a more practical vehicle out there. Insane fuel mileage, fun to drive, more cargo space than most CUV's out now, and plenty of room for the dog and the baby coming in February.

 

Your check engine light is on

 

Lol I was anticipating a CEL at least once during that trip but I was let down. No lights yet... I do however have some pretty extensive warranty coverage due to the whole dieselgate fiasco, and it's CPO (2yr/utld mileage certified warranty)

 

Awesome little car, especially the rare 2015. Congrats, jelly.
