Had a good day out in the cars yesterday. Me and couple of other friends took the roads in Angus and Perthshire for a blast.
The cars:
My 3.0i Z4
Subaru Impreza WRX
Nissan 200SX - modified beyond belief, and pushing 300bhp from a 1.8 16v lump
We covered some great roads, including the Dundee to Coupar Angus Road, Blairgowrie to Kirriemuir road, and various others. Here's a few pictures - apologies for the quality, they are all iPhone pics.
I'm glad it was a sunny day, as I managed to have the roof down nearly the whole time.
I'm not normally a fan of Japanese cars, but my mates love them. I'm trying to convince the Subaru owner to get a BMW, but he wants a Toyota Supra for his next motor.... Booooo :thumbsdown:
The 200SX, for an old Datsun, it really did shift. It's fully stripped out, roll cage, stage 2 turbo, uprated fuel pumps and injectors etc and loads of other things which I didnt understand and don't have the vocabulary to repeat :lol: Needless to say, it's had a healthy few thousand spent on it, and it shows. Shame the turbo doesnt come on song until 3,500rpm... (it redlines at 8,500 :evil: ) It's been made to be a drifting machine, and he regularly takes it to "drifting" days at the local race circuits.
All in all a good road trip
