Valve angles changed, ported unpolished head, ugly arse $39 pod filter, lexus afm - neither ugly nor cheap - , good 215 tread on sweet 17" rims ... standard entry-level. Just the head gasket repair ( reason the head was worked ) makes a world of differance after you get the head set up nicely and the leaks fixed. I had it done well, not just planed off so I could slap it back on. Hope you know a good, friendly mechanic.
Even stamping on the throttle from its 600rpm idle makes my car do a nice takeoff, but yea it's an auto. In a manual you'd launch at a fast idle or more to make it look any better than an auto so there's nothing wrong with it.

So I bought this old Honda bike, an NSR250. Bit of a street racer, I guess. I'm told they're fast. Delivering it home with a friend driving the Supra for the first time. I drop gears and make a scream from the twin pipes flowing down this pony's flanks and it takes off like it's tail's on fire. I look back when the Honda gets to its tap-out and the Supra's only two lengths behind. No one I've let ride my bike has told me its slow, they've all loved the thing. That car is a good thing indeed. |
