They're a bit old I guess, but take them for what they are- an older car, they where fairly respectable for their time.
Friend had a Mk3 with the 1JZ in it and that wasn't an exactly slow car either, well capable of keeping up with my tooled up Silvia in a straight line... twisties, not so much! She's a bit of a thick chick like most Toyotas are to some extent.

I owned one, faggot
It was a piece of shit, slow, and understeered because the weight distribution is absolute fucking garbage, "kid." I know it's REALLY SUPER GOOD in Gran Turismo 1 but that doesn't correlate to real life.
>>14671946
>REALLY SUPER GOOD in Gran Turismo 1
It weighed over 2800 lbs WITH the race mod. I found settings that allowed it to go over 240 MPH on the Test Course, but that came at the cost of it being able to slow down after reaching that speed
>>14671946
>and understeered because the weight distribution is absolute fucking garbage
maybe you should have learned to drive instead of throwing it into corners without any actual technique :^)
and dont blame the car on your inability to into wrenching :^)

The magazine posted above confirms that it's a fat piece of non-turning shit, Drift King.
>and dont blame the car on your inability to into wrenching :^)
I never fixed anything twice. The problem was that a completely new thing broke literally every month at the very least, and often every week. That's unacceptable unless you're a Shitsubishi pleb who expects your car to run less than half the time and counts anything better than that as a flawless victory

All you need. Maybe when I was 9 buying a GTO/R33 and fully modding it was sick, but lightness is what won races.
Even minivan people hate them.
>>14671524
>>14671698
>>14671723
Most people hated the USDM and the EUDM cars because they used the 7m-gte instead of the 1jz-gte engine, even though the group A touring and rally version used them, albeit they were thoroughly tuned.
Also it had a bit of a "funky" suspension setup, and short steering lock.
>>14672017
They're interesting to look at though

Thats why i said pic sorta related
I just don't like the exterior looks but the rest is fine.

dude, aestethic, vaporware memes, etc

Anything with enough character to provoke hate from one group s probably going to be loved by another. The cars literally no-one likes would be the kind of great boring lumps you forget about until someone reminds you they exist. Sure people buy them because of practicality and competitive finance rates, but does anyone actually, honestly like shit like the Skoda Rapid, the Opel Meriva or the Kia Rio?

>>14671913
>What's the longest your GTO MR has been on the road without breaking? (Assuming you're red GTO MR anon
In the last 10 years, its stopped working twice-
Dead battery that dropped some cells, because it was old
Starter motor died- got caught in a massive storm on the way home and had to drive through about half a foot of water, but its bearings where on the way out anyway so didn't really feel too cheated about it
Apart from that, anything else that was wearing out I just fixed up along the way, so all the little things don't turn into big things. I come from a mechanical family from dads side and been working on cars and bikes since I was 10, so for me its just 'Maintenance' and not a 'Problem' like a lot of people consider their vehicles maintenance to be. Its a 19 year old performance car now, some stuff will wear out eventually, but its not actually ever done anything catastrophic which was due to a manufacturers fault or shit engineering.
That said, there's a lot under there which I consider 'Japan Engineering' and made by people with tiny hands that smell like Sake, but otherwise the build quality is pretty high.
Looking back in hindsight over the last 20 years of cars I've owned- it is the 2nd most reliable next to the R34GTT, everything else I've owned was far more of a hassle to keep running.
You want a genuinely hard car to keep on the road- try anything from 1970's UK, 1980's Italy or 1990's era German and get back to me. Jap cars by and large are pretty reliable things
In between the S30 and Z32 it gets no love. One of the best looking cars of all time in my opinion, and the pop up headlights they've got are impeccable. The old 280ZX tail light design looks great as well as the later changed design albeit simple looking.
>>14675330
They make pretty decent cars for people looking to do a little project, everything is so cheap.
Think when they knocked some the curves off them for the 80s it sort of killed it a bit in the looks dept, but otherwise they're not bad
>>14675360
Yeah I'm looking to get one of my own to fix up, after hearing the easy power gains the VG30ET can get I'm sold. However I heard most companies who make the parts discontinued them a long time ago
>>14671577
I wouldn't say universal, and a lot of the hate they get is pretty undeserved anyway.
>>14671793
>>14671821
Well the car is great when it works...which after many years it doesn't
>>14675400
Well I guess its been 30-odd years so stuff will get scarce. Should still be a fair bit of 2nd-hand and reconditioned bits around though, plus 'some' stuff from the 280 and Z32 will fit.
Otherwise a lot of the modern turbo's and engine management stuff slapped up to the 3L V6 should get them going along pretty well.
cant like it if you've never heard of it

The Z31 is much-beloved, at least among internet autists. It's the S130 that everyone fucking hates because it's ugly, fat, and slow.

I have a friend with one. At 122k miles he's had to replace all the suspension and the clutch and flywheel. In his the seat's falling apart, satnav screen hinge is busted, shifter boot is peeling, the right window motor is fucked up, and the new clutch drags when cold.

I wouldn't trust the gearbox to handle me manhandling it with the AWD to deal with as well. It'll probably be on its last legs mechanically in two or three years, so I want to be as far away from the car as possible when it goes boom.

There was a black RX-7 for sale near me for £8k, with 67k miles. Why didn't I buy it.
My mom somehow got a VR4 3000GT when I was in 2nd grade or something. It was fucking awesome for the three months it worked.
I can't wait to ditch this shit

Its handling was always exceptional, however, the joy of 'look honey, we nearly got 200km out of a tank of fuel' gets pretty fucking annoying after a while.

Doesn't the Dodge Stealth TT not get any of the gizmos and gadgets? Why are they also seen as unreliable of that's all the shit that breaks.

I currently have 2 300zxs and one fox body. The Mustang is awesome, sounds mean and feels raw and violent, heavy clutch, notch shifter and heavy steering. The 300zx is a very refined chassis, I love the looks of it, how wide and low it is, love the driving position, T tops, a complete opposite of the Mustang. The second 300zx that I have does not have an engine. It would be cool putting a 5.0 or LS in it

the 3kgt will outrun all of them, but will be the most expensive to mantain.
if you're not a serious lover who's willing to drop serious cash in repairs, i'd go for the 300ZX twin turbo, although it is a bitch to work on.

As an ex-owner of a 94 3000gt vr4 I can attest. Past owner molested it daily and I had to replace a bunch of parts. Once it was repaired it ran fine, some minor issues but in the end was great. Time of sale I had it at around 410whp. I needed a more practical car and got a Q50 awd, fun but the drive by wire steering kills some of the fun, still a great car.
