hey is that white 350z our member hatebobbarker??

[sensibleS13driver]

I think it is with a DDay instructor driving.

[sleepyRPS13]

if my car was more capable would bring it. i can already predict the comments: suspension to soft; this motor has no power; damn this tire sucks balls; what the hell is that gas smell, is it leaking. me: i think it needs new oring & hoses, sir.harharhar

that toyota echo serious its rolling with work equips o3.

[JDMEnthused]

mmm id love too .. BUT! i need new rear toe links, unfortunately.

[HashiriyaS14]

lol, did you see the Toyota Echo with the Work Equips on it?

That's be awesome if someone built a fast Echo.

[sleepyRPS13]

i wonder if it has a 2zzge swap and if i remember correctly it has a curb weight around of 2500lbs.

lightweight+170hp?+6speed?+sticky tires=one fast touge echo.

Yeah, that'd be the coolest thing ever.

I want a 2ZZ-powered Vitz, although I want a 2ZZ-powered MR Spyder even more

[dickie]

i have a question/observation:

an echo looks like an egg. its short, narrow, and tall, which makes for a high center of gravity... even on a great suspension wouldnt you encounter more roll than another car?

Just cut the top off!

[DjPantsSpecR]

i'd just like to point out that looks are and always have been decieving...

you cant simply say a car has a high center of gravity from its shape. its not like it has 30 inch tires, a grip of clearance and is actually a 4runner....

the most important part of the handling equation was 2500 lbs.

[dickie]

thats true, i guess you could gut the headliner and throw a few bags of rock salt on the floorboard or something... :P

edit: what i was trying to get across is that for the price of that car he could have easily gotten something better suited for that type of driving and afforded to dress it out nicely. but i mean, then he wouldnt be driving an echo, and he wouldnt be such an individual in a world of conformists.

[sleepyRPS13]

i think that 350z does belongs to hatebobbarker
