Old Skool Imports Reborn........which one??

[Georgia_boy]

which import from the past would you bring back?????
personally I wouldn't mind seeing more
RWD 4cyl cars like the Corolla GTS or a reborn Datsun 510.

I mean don't get me wrong
the cars were great.......for there time.
I just would like to see them brought back in to production
and get the new technoloy we have in cars today.

so like I said, what car would you bring back and
what would you add to it streight off the assembly line????

[wantboost]

510

[Nemesis]

MARK V SUPRA

[Tank]

[RotarySlave]

Datsun 240z with a nice RB26 in it. :D

[RotarySlave]

Maybe a 1st gen rx7 done 3rotor style.

[HiPSI]

starions/conquests

[mocha latte cupcake]

i agree with the starions, always loved'm and with some new school technology, aka not having your injectors infront of your throttle plate, i think they would be a serious contender. i'd love to see a 510 back on the road with a SR20DE in it even.

also, the 240z's everyone already called back the good ones lol.

[Stormhammer]

510 ( and bluebirds/skylines )
240z/260z

Cressida... I remember that car had a button you hit and that mother fucker would like squat down and go... I dont remember what the fuck it was, My uncle had one and holly shit.. talk about pimp back in the day. I was like 11 or something.

[Georgia_boy]

I am a big fan of old school toyota power.

I spent all this weekend swaping a 5MGE
into a 82 celica,
it's gonna be a mean little booger when it's done.
+1 for the old school toyota fans.

The ECT button near the shifter. It puts the tranny into a sport mode changing the shift points. The cressida had this cool motorized pullout for the a/c controls. It would be a nice sleeper since the mk3 turbo and 1jz motors can be swapped in :ninja:. It uses also the n/a supra motor. The only problem i had was the headgasket and tranny issues. Too bad it got replaced by the avalon/lexus. Damn, i miss mine. :(

Eclipse GSX. Should be a good bit cheaper than Evo and would sell like hot cakes.

I'd say just bring back more RWD compacts. Everybody is suggesting to bring back the old Zs but the Z cars are still around albeit in the overweigh and underpowered 350Z.

[Halfwit]

crx?

[GTScoob]

crx?

Get someone to swap a K20 into a Fit or even dare I say an Insight?

Fit weighs a 2470lbs, Insight 1850lbs

[Georgia_boy]

Get someone to swap a K20 into a Fit

I just read where someone has just finished do exactly that,

Starion ofcourse, TBI is gay and the intake manifold is gay, so are soft rubber intercooler pipes. oh and lets not forget that brilliant over the valve cover pipe lol

i wuv my starion tho. 16x8 in the front, 16x9 rear. factory widebody, LSD, turbo, intercooled, radio controls on the steering wheel, automatic climate control back in 1986 ^_^ they were like 25,000 back in the day, i'm sure theyd be as much as an evo today, with all the modernt ech on them

2.6ltr truck motor 8psi stock,can boost to 18psi on a stock block!!!(if your careful)

[Five*Star*]

A 2-door mazda with an N/A 3-rotor. Maybe call it an RX-7 again :D

vattack

[mocha latte cupcake]

[Kyle]

I wish toyota would revive the MR2, the newer ones don't do it for me, no turbo, no power, no fun...

[ash7]

Nissan kept the Z32 in production all the way up until 1999, i think they should have just kept it keepin on, updating the looks and engine.

That's a rock-solid car that's aged very well.

[Mad Mike]

crx and the starion/conquest
I have a conquest sitting in my drive way right now. It needs a new motor but it will live again.

[EP3sAreFun]

i had no idea there were so many starquest guys around here!

I wish they would bring back the 510 or maybe the RX-7.

Put a SR or a RB in the 510 and it would be badass.

[MK3 SupraJ]

I liked the old Toyota 2000GT, gt-4 celica, a real mr-2 with a turbo and of course a new supra.

[josh green]

GMC Cyclone, Buick GNX, MKIV supra, E30 M3, Mercedes 190 Evolution. Thats all I can think of. All with same or slightly more modern engines and modern interior.
