With the new Supra coming out which might be the first Toyota that excites me in a decade or two, as well as a Mustang for autocrossing and racing and possibly a 2017 Grand Sport that is the short list of cars that I might pick up in the next year or so. Unless Nissan comes up with a Z in the mid 400HP range that is...
What happened to the Datsun?

Datsun is going strong. Too strong. Last year I was breaking the driveline components. Drive Shaft Ujoint, which then took out the output shaft of the tranny. Then 3 Diff output shafts.

So now it is on to the R200 Diff which is much stronger, as well as CV axle half shafts and a whole bunch of Techno Toys Tuning parts.

The whole back of the car will be new. Except for the stub axles that the wheels bolt to. No Doubt I will break those next. And no one makes a reasonable priced substitute...

Good to hear from you SuperchargedG! Glad to hear the old girl is still running strong.

The KTM will probably be for sale soon. will probably replace it with a new BMW of some sort. looking for an upright bike with adventure capability.

Still riding?
Nope. My kid totaled the bike a couple years back and I never replaced it. He since bought a Ninja 650 and has so kindly offered to sell it to me when he replaces it. I'll probably re-take the safety course to reacclimate myself before then.

Seriously, how many people still own their damn Z's anymore? Good news is, I could go buy a brand new one and it'd be ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE ONE I BOUGHT A DECADE!!

Literally...a decade. 10 years.
Still got my Z. I'm in it to win it. That damn engine better give me 200k miles at least.

Being married to a mechanic has its perks.

I miss my 6 speed. In the process of doing a modest build on the R. About 75% done. I miss the Saturday Columbia meets!
