thinking of swapping my 200 with someone...

my 200...

swapping it for this....

2.5l twin turbo 1jz engine...
manual 5 speed which is stupidly rare...

dyno'd at 357bhp

stick a big single turbo on it, new injectors and ecu, stock internals and box will hold 600bhp easy...

1 uk owner and is a jap import... these hit STUPID! speeds!! would want to stick a set of tein mono flex on it drop it low, front mount hnmmmm just not sure if its a good idea or not??

my 200 is on stock rims now and looks sorry for itself

White16valver · Oct 21, 2008

No no no

Old mans' car, although a very fast old mans' car LoL

Sort your rims out and it'll be mint again!

Turkish · Oct 21, 2008

Never been a fan of those and tbh it doesnt look a particularly good example either. I'd keep the 200 if it was me.

MaLicE · Oct 21, 2008

could also possibly swap it for this...

Ian_182 · Oct 21, 2008

No and NO

Your car looks much better.Just keep spending a bit at a time and yours will be quick

Aluco · Oct 21, 2008

Looks basically like the same car in a more boring colour

Turkish · Oct 21, 2008

I might be tempted by the corolla depends how it drives and how much rot it's got.

White16valver · Oct 21, 2008

Corolla = maybe, subject to a thorough check over!

Don't get bottom raped by someone looking to get your car and all the money sunk into it by swapping it for a money pit that's actually s**t. x

Turkish · Oct 21, 2008

Corolla then, lol. Even if you get bored and change it at least you've owned one for a bit.

Adamhodg · Oct 21, 2008

Id swap for the corolla definitely, looks awesome, my dad had a celica supra and that was a fantastic car imo.

B5 BDJ · Oct 22, 2008

AE86 FTFW!!

Pep · Oct 22, 2008

My mate has an AE86, its awesome and is pretty quick (16v one)

BUT, the soarer is the ultimate car for amazingness. I reckon after your 200 you'll be annoyed at how 'slow' they are, the Soarer rules!

White16valver · Oct 22, 2008

AE86 will keep its value better though!

Pep · Oct 22, 2008

^ Debatable in my opinion, the soarer is stupidly rare, and worth a lot to the right person.

TooneySonic · Oct 22, 2008

soarer is an old mans car, don't do it!!

better off with a supra IMO

AE86 yummy drift drift drift!

Lack of power may bore you though...

bush360 · Oct 22, 2008

I do like the look of your current beast but understand the need to change. If it is any help I normally base my car decisions on having what I really want and getting the best possible. Basically with this approach you will be less likely to change or get bored in a couple of months. Which is exactly what I didnt do when I bought my stupid diesel jetta and why hopefully I will have a 197 within a couple of months.

sean_d · Oct 22, 2008

Ad swap for the AE86

sideways danny · Oct 22, 2008

soarer if it was a v8.....but it's not. the Trueno is really cool, dont worry about the lack of power from it, you'll be laughing too much every time you drive it to care

Englebert · Oct 22, 2008

PMSL at the Soarer... they're for Phil Mitchells.

AE86, yes please.

Christopher · Oct 22, 2008

Hachiroku FTW!

Do it! Do it now!!!!!

Alastair. · Oct 22, 2008

love the 200, that other thing would be mental fast

Iridium · Oct 23, 2008

I'm amazed you even considered the Soarer. Just no on every level for me...

The Corrola, maybe, just a shame it's not the other body style for proper Initial-D pimping hehe

I must admit, I always fancied owning one at some point, but the one in my dreams is the one shaped like this -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:RedCorollaTrueno.jpg

The coupe/hatchback/lift back type one, as opposed to the shape in this thread.

Christophe · Oct 23, 2008

MillerLight · Oct 23, 2008

i dont know much about these cars but looking at the pics. i like you car alot more than the rest

Christopher · Oct 23, 2008

Ian_182 · Oct 23, 2008

Riley! · Oct 23, 2008

Hachi-roku is '86' in Japanese.

It refers to the old Corolla-based variants using the AE86 chassis code.

Levin/Trueno etc

Here's a minter. They still hold their money too.

I would
