Magoo’s car finally backs out from the land of the ferries. It will leave to go to the mountains to get mapped and where the final touches can be added.
Was browsing the cool inter-web and found this 240, thought it was interesting because its still running a KA24DE which was the standard engine in the usdm chassis. Alex who owns this turbo charged it and decided to keep running this engine because he says its cheap and he goes through quiet a few of them…
That brown suits these cars so well. Both the cressida and the 240 look delicious.
This car is definitely a love/ hate situation, there will be many people who will hate how this is covered in giraffe/ leopard print and others will think its unique and kind of cool.
Personally i think its pretty fucking cool. Its different and it stands and doesn’t really take from the car or look tacky. What you think?
Ive always had a thing for these kp starlets and i imagine many others do, heres a shit load of nice interesting ones to show some kp 60-62 love.
Seans building a nice track ready ep-82 . Its raw as fuck and fully stripped out. He ran a 13.7 by turning up the boost back in Limerick in 09 on the side of that dodgy horse racing track and melted a piston so Sean took the car off the road and decide to rebuild the engine and use it as a track car. He replaced the melted piston with standard pistons, just polished to them help prevent detonation and shortened the intercooler piping. Ive always been a fan of these little cars there cool as fuck because there a 1300 turbo little pocket rocket ( haha had to get that term in there at least once) on a 4E-FTE that gives out a nice little kick. So many shams got their hands on them an molested them when they first hit our shores so there reputation has been put down alot over the years. Personally if one is done right its gonna be fucking cool and personally i think Seans will be cool its raw and hes not afraid to drive the fuck out of it. Ive always liked Seans because he doesn’t put chrome tint all over the windows and tons of accessories and stuff you would find in and on many other starlets. He did the total opposite. He uses this car and built it towards function. You have to love the side exit exhaust on the bumper! The gt-turbo is as JDM as you can get and i know JDM is an overused over raped term but this gt turbo is cool. Check some of Seans pics of the car and his progress….

Its shit even in the title when i wrote 2010 it makes it sound so serious, i tried to write 10 but that just looks stupid and 010 doesn’t look so good either. Ah well. This year wt up to Mondello again for another track day. A change from some of the not so exciting parades around the country. Maybe it was just me but there was less cars there compared to last year. I guess this whole recession shit has really had a toll or maybe it was just paddys day and more people wanted to drink this year. I had a camera and also a video camera with me so i started filming the day and made an oul video from it.
Haha, Duggie and his magical trueno and the magical boring new bypass from Dublin to ford and Dayos magical photography skills from the back.
An r32 surounded by Imprezas.
Some clean egs.
A Lurking jzx90 maybe?
This k20 powered Elise was pretty nifty around the track
Dan murdering 200sxs and civics in his stock 1400 corolla haha, Dan works at Mondello and would give you a run for your money in this car. Thanks for bringing us up to the tower again it was cool.
Dave did the trip also in his Hachi. Its looking good as always.
This mini was just fucking epic to be honest, cruising around the track at 30-40 with rx7s flying past and evos. It was so good.
Mountains in the background with snow makes this almost look not like Ireland haha.
This ae92 was looking good. Looked very jap and was loud as fuck. There was a little bit of batteling between the Daves ae86 and this 92 that we got to see from the tower balcony area, it was a good time to watch that. There is small bits in the video below.
Nice looking caged ferio
This rx-7 was flat out all day.
Battle of the civic generations?? haha
We then used this key to get this picture below.
Just having a joke… Check the video now so you can feel like you were there also with this space age technology called youtube.
The Mazda Cosmo 4th generation. I remember this from Gran Turismo but totally forgot about this till one came up today. What a weird looking car. Supposedly just under 9000 of these were ever made and only for the jap market. They were made from 1990 to 1995 and were available with either a twin turbo 13b-rew or the 20b-rew. Its kind of a cool coupe i guess sadly it was only available in automatic but its weird how you never see one of these pop up anywhere…. Crazy Japanese.
Doesn’t look half bad with the work CR-kai(emotions) on it.
Also looks cool with these super advans.
This one looks pretty cool. kind of r32ish.
Sad but i guess no one gives a fuck about this one haha.
