Toyota.

Actually, ATESSA isn't exactly simply a biased AWD system. If you've ever seen with ATESSA launch, you'll know exactly what I mean. It's a good deal more complex than BMW X-Drive or MB 4matic.

I'm ok with JDM rebadging... sometimes it really means something, sometimes it doesn't. ie an EK9 Civic hatch with B16series engine rebadged as an SiR is a fairly accurate rebadge. Same with a IS300 with the JDM 2L engine rebadged as an Altezza/IS200.

Plus, the Skyline is a typical car in Japan... only the GT-R was truly special in Japan. They used Skylines as cop cars and they're friggin everywhere when I was there in 2000.

damn you are azn, azn bookworm. I just hope you are driving something decent.

Nope... I blew up my 400hp Talon AWD... so I'm driving a POS Neon beater until I finish the Talon project. It no longer a 4G63T... it's a $4G63T... I'll leave you to your kitten killing. You leave me to my azn-ness.

not 'Type R" honda.

Nissan has had the big red R for a long long time.

My factory Nismo shift knob has a small 'big red R' for reverse.

you do realize that in order for it to be accurate on that, it would have to be right hand drive right?

Are you the owner of one of the few '98 240sx's out there?

fewer than I realized...took 6 months to find one with $20k out there.

http://www.driftkat.com is my site. Lots of changes going on on my car (currently wearing the JDM grille, much better looking esp on a white car, and quieting all the rattles and panels with dampening material, felt, foam, and tightening stuff 🙂)
