Most members must have gone through a phase in the 90s of owning some sort of Japanese turbo charged 'sports' car. I used to have a chipped 200sx 1.8 turbo. Pretty nippy for a 170bhp car with 0-60 at 6.7 seconds on the stock car. Reckon mine was just shy of 6. Absolute lunacy to drive, especially when booting it in 2nd into a bend, the turbo kicking in halfway round, back end out, then the LSD working its nuts off to pull the car straight again as you exited the bend and rocketed up to 60 in a couple of seconds. Was tremendous fun, although had the weight and handling of a pack of confetti!!
Seems like only yesterday. Thinking back, it was around 1998. Ended up writing it off slamming in to the side of some old bloke who couldn't just distance when pulling out a junction.
Was light metallic blue but very similar in looks to the one below.
What did you guys own? I'm expecting a few Jap imports and the likes of 300ZX, Skyline, MR2 Turbo, RX-7, GTO, Lancer Evo I, II or III, Impreza, Supra, etc.
