    Default Showin you punks a real ride

    Thought you guys might want to know where it all began. This car, my car, started it all. The turbo craze comes from the conquest/starion. Dont you forget it

    I like what you did with the windshield wiper, so that they match the racing stripes...

    Wow, that'll be nice for as long as it runs. I do believe the GNX Grand nationals were turbocharged too, as well as some older Porsches, oh and in the early 80s, the Mazda Rx-7 12A were sold in Japan with turbochargers. this is the part where you stop acting all high and mighty.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    The Mustangs also had turbos with the GN craze. I think they started the turbo 4 cylinder back in 83-84.

    I have to agree with taking a GN over a Starion ricer look.

    When someone post up a "real car" I was expecting a 66 vette or something with "real" muscle.

    Glad you like your car.

    I like Starions, as long as they don't have racing stripes and Pep Boys wipers. I was leaving Pep Boys one day and saw a guy putting yellow wipers on his perfect E36 M3 and had to talk him out of it.

    That's pretty good. My car on 25 psi only went a few seconds faster than that.
