The 5.0 LX Notchback was the real sleeper. It was lightweight as it didn't have the body panels or the full rear hatch glass that the GT had. You can still make big cheap power with that motor.

1970s Camaro LT
Hand me down from my Grandmother
Had granny gearing as the LT stood for Luxury Touring.

Only owned it for about a year before I got into one of these.

The Yamaha designed and built engines were a blast! To this day, I still love the look of the intake manifold with primary and secondary runners.

That civic looks nice! Properly setup, they are go-carts on the street.

5 Less than the Mustang GT 5.0.

Definitely wimpy by today's standards, but about 30 less HP than a 911 of the time.

At the end of the day, it was a Taurus, haha

1MOREMOD · 11-26-2015, 05:55 PM

Yeah 225 used to seem like a bunch but now it's in crap cars

My supra came with 185hp. But, it was RWD, came with LSD and weighed in around 2800 pounds. Loads of fun. Great car to learn in. Enough power to weight so it's not boring yet not so much power that you can upset the chassis too badly mid turn with the throttle. Very forgiving and having to drive it for 10 years gave me plenty of time to really dial in the suspension.

1MOREMOD · 11-26-2015, 07:56 PM

Yeah my e46 is 2947 with 360hp. Makes for fun controlled momentum car.

Bet it's a blast to drive. I would have loved to have my E46 M's under 3k pounds.

1MOREMOD · 11-27-2015, 05:19 PM

It is but could use 360whp instead of crank now and lose another 200lbs. Would put me in good position against z06, gt3, gtr, and new slew of fast ass cars.
