Ace, welcome to the mad house, I'm liking these, they are looking older and cooler by the day. I'm guessing you're not low-ridering it!  |

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

Hello, Nice wheels  What you really need is an oil cooler fitted in the front grill area  By the way the Laural sounded sweet when you pulled away the other day. |

i love the sound of the straight 6 ;D
oil cooler is getting moved a bit lower, its a very obvious target where it is lol.
wheels really suit it, much more modern looking but still in keeping with the car. I'm just on the lookout for some low offset ssr mk1's for under £200.........in my dreams

Lovely! Ran and identical D-plate one for the last year, it's still here and will be broken soon if you need bits? I agree about the sound - mine had a healthily bodged exhaust and I loved it! These late L24 engines seem to rev better than older ones like in my C210 - reputedly they do have lightened internals and lots of detail changes. Still be better with an RB25 in there though.....

Ah, the drift racing Laurel makes an appearance on Retro Rides! It was a bit lower the last time I saw it on Driftworks?
I just missed out on one in Southampton, sold for £400 with new MOT

Ah, the drift racing Laurel makes an appearance on Retro Rides! It was a bit lower the last time I saw it on Driftworks? I just missed out on one in Southampton, sold for £400 with new MOT auto or manual? reckon £400 is a bit steep unless its a minter, mine set me back a lot less than that with 12mths MOT and i would consider mine to be very tidy indeed. those are old pictures, its faily low atm, and has different wheels and an oil cooler etc. oh and a "custom" jetex exhaust (non chav, a race silencer releasing the lovely 6 cylinder symphony) |

This looked pretty mint, although my old Laurel cost me 300 with a new MOT, was also mint, and ended up around 3" lower all round by the time I chopped the springs... |
