So, the busa is totalled... But I got my other toy on the road FINALLY!!!
What is it you ask? Well, it's Yamaha powered, 220 HP having, 200ft/lb tq tire squeelin, piece of fun...
Is it bad? probably... I've noticed me picking on Honda's lately... Oh yeah, I've beat them. It supposedly will hold it's own with a mustang GT 5.0
Now, most are wondering what it is now, and most will laugh at these pictures, cause it's funny this thing is this powerful....
Who wants to be a Ricer beaten by this?
my intake manifold...
Oh yeah, the front bumper is on, but it's from a parts car. It's black like the hood and grill. The hood and grill look okay on there in black, but the bumper is too much...
Now, most are thinking, why is he excited about some old Taurus POS... Well, It's not a Taurus POS, it's a Taurus SHO... It's got a Yamaha designed V-6, Mazda 5 speed transaxle, and 140 MPH top speed. Funny thing is, there's a guy with one with a stock internals and turbocharged engine making 450HP at the wheels. 185 MPH on the GPS and it was STILL PULLING! I've had mine for 3 years, it just hardly ran in that time... Why? it was originally bought as a toy, but it stopped working... An intake bolt that grounds the DIS control unit was missing and I overlooked it. I felt REAL dumb when we got it fixed.
Anywho, I'm trying to sell my S-10 for money reasons, and this car has been paid off. I wasn't too worried about a car if I sold the truck, because I had the busa. Well, that has obviously changed now, and I need transportation. My S-10 is parked now getting cleaned up, and waiting to be sold. I hope soon, as payments are a PAIN! Anyway, this is my new toy/car. First car I've owned with power EVERYTHING and a moonroof/sunroof. I love this thing. It's great fun. Not as fun as the busa, but it's still sanity saving... ish.
