Last weekend I took the Sprint down to the Shokuji J-Tin Historic Japanese Car Gathering in San Leandro. (http://www.HistoricJapaneseCarGathering.com) It’s a smaller much more relaxed and laid back version of the the Japanese Classic Car Show in Long Beach. The weather was great and the sprint got all kinds of reactions and what is it’s. If you’re in the Bay Area next year, this is a free event with incredible cars, views, and lots of inventive food trucks, like Korean/Mexican/bbq (thats just one truck) http://gachimogo.com/

Hey, didn't meet the Ratsun stud. I met a lot of cool Z guys and roadster guys, saw Mary from the Skyline adds of the 70's.

Once you get the cars dialed-in (compression, leaks, bearings, alignment, brakes) swap in new rubber and glass, you've got something which should last for years!

Err, WAIT:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=50941

HC doubled, CO stayed about the same, NO is anyone's guess.
Most non-turbos can't compete with those results.
:P

All in all, I'd say one of the best kept T3's at Teamswift!
