My daily driver. 2" lift and larger tires but not enough to really be noticeable (that isn't my thing), also JL sub and other audio goodies:

Just sold my bike (210hp carpenter racing kit) and my 66 427 corvette this fall!

And got a GT-R:

Yes, I know the initial reaction is that I am crazy for selling the vette, but trust me, there are good reasons and bad memories.

That gtr! I drove one once, I gave it some pedal to the metal and melted to the back of the seat lol.

Yea they are just silly. I picked this one up with 5k miles and already a cobb midpipe and downpipes with accessport. Had a custom tune done so should be right around 600hp now.

It's been fun going from messing with carb jets all day to checking the A/F ratio right on the go, lol.

I have a Cobb on my 22B impreza. I only produce a whopping 230 hp. But the car only weighs 2700 pounds so it's decently quick.

Nice! I didn't know those only were 2700lb, I bet it scoots! I had an RSX typeS once and it only made 210hp, but the gearing, weight and handling it was a blast.

EDIT: those cobbs are expensive, I bought the car with it included, but was surprised to see what they run.
 
We have stupid front plate law here, but with the carbon frame and the black Iowa border on the plate I don't think it looks too bad:

The plate gets more attention than the car! Had it on the 66 vette before.

Had it dynoed... keep in mind I was running the most aggressive tune at the time. I don't run the car everyday on that tune. Mods are jb4, chargepipes, exhaust, catless downpipe, intercooler, pure turbo stage 1, ewg wires and fuel flex wires.
 
Surprised it made so much more on race gas than e85. At least for GTRs e85 seems like it's about the most HP fuel out there (when compared to gasoline octane ratings at least). I have been thinking about converting my GTR to e85, the corvette above was on e85, just need to save up for injectors and pump.

Thats awesome those results, I was just reading about 235i last week:

Sure beat that FBO 377hp!!!

It's only 50% e85 mixed with 93.
