what to do

[fingers21]

I plan to keep it pretty muddy, but maybe you're right. I am leaning more towards the matt black, but not totally decided.

[Fricfrac]

Camo. looks stupid.

It sure does.

[Paul1566]

Ah but not all camo looks stupid .........

Very Stupid Camo ........

[Shalershasker]

Its one of these...

That pic surprised me a lot, considering both setups I actually prefer the truck on the left rather than the matt black one, normally I like the offroad look.

[Shalershasker]

Do the swap, try the evo then flog it and get a 3rd gen .

[sbd16v]

There you go, fixed it for your new vehicle...

mine is going 1uzfe lol so i hope it dont take 81 seconds to get to 60mph lol

[stormforce]

Tell the guy to buy my 3rd gen or Lucifer if he wants a promo truck

Fast cars are rubbish on the road these days. The GT-Four was just too stressful to own. Everywhere you go you find yourself stuck behind someone, so overtake just to be stuck behind someone and repeat. It was also not very nice to drive at low speeds - too stiff and 'pointy', back breaking over speed humps / potholes etc. The Surf is much more in tune with modern roads.

Having said that, if I could afford to keep something like that as a weekend hillclimb or SS plaything, I would do.

True about the state of the roads for fast cars , we have speed bumps all over the estate where we live in tewkesbury
and they are just a tad wider than the surf track width so no need to slow down....
yet they are high enough to make even normal cars slow down because the tarmac either side has subsided due to the
busses going over them in the summer when the tarmac is soft and made them higher than the council planned....
As for pot holes, i saw a council tipper the other day and no joke he had tubs like this in the back



###### tarmac in a tub....what ever next.....

Now you know that ain't going to last long and your evo wheels will hate potholes...

Buy lucifer for £5k and sell it to him for £6k then get some bigger wheels for yours....

mine was a pure track day car so never really used it on the roads





SORRY about the thread hijack

sorry I'm not sure what you mean

[Wolfracer]

What would you do in my situation.

That's plenty of advice for you Steve, now we need to know - is it power and handling or little boys wetting themselves and pointing when you driver past...?

I think I have reached a decision

I shall be keeping the surf, I actually gave myself a headache trying to decide but in the end I decided that is miss the surf too much.

So the surf will be treated to a good service, some paintwork , new tyres and a new screen.
