[mikegto]

hi just wanted to introduce myself. ive been into pistonheads for years but for some reason never got into the forum. so decided it was time.

im from north wales near conwy.
im 33 and love cars. cant leave them standard though, must be an illness lol

im running two vehicles at the moment both totally different beasts so i kinda get the best of both worlds ish

hope you like

A couple of nice cars, how powerful is the Mitsubishi? The Rangie looks awesome!

Welcome to PH

[mikegto]

mitsi is somewhere just over 400bhp at the minute but hoping to get her up to around the 500bhp at the wheels before the year is out. and cheers love the rangy best fun ive had with clothes on in ages

Welcome Mike to the Readers car area of the PH forum!!

Two great cars you have there,are you influenced by maxpower cars by any chance?(Mitsubishi Gto)

[h4muf]

Get your wheels on the gto painted properly mate,there a bit odd imo.

Great to have you with us. Love the Mitsi.

[mikegto]

sorry but i cant stand max power and what it stands for

the wheels are being refurbed soon, just deciding on colour, will be powder coated either black, bronze or gunmetal grey.

cheers for the welcome

I think matching the wheels to the red rising sun on the roof could look quite eye catching. IMHO.

[mikegto]

the rising sun was taken off a while ago. only put it on to go to a jap meet. car is all black now with just the wheels for colour change.

I like the Mitsu. I think the wheels look great! Very Need For Speed Underground.

I don't like the wing mirrors as much though. But that's my only complaint. The rest is cool.


So that's a from me!

[mikegto]

yeah the wing mirrors are just there for mot purposes i think. u cant use them at all theyre not even set for me as i cant get them near to anything reasonable, but they are aero mirrors and look sexy compared to the standard things

Cracking cars mate.

The Rangie is a beast, what mods have you made to that? Looks very un-standard!

its had a full st/st exhaust hand made (sounds sexual must admit)

then really just jacked it up 2" with a lift kit, pro comp shockers all round with springs. fitted the spots on the front and put the wheels on with the mud tyres. she stands about 6" taller than a standard rangy. wheels are 32.5" tall

great fun when i get the time but cos i dont im thinking of selling her.

will miss the looks and sound of her though

[kenmorton]

Well I realy like the colour of the GTO wheels.

[m4rky77]

Nice Wheels

[TaylotS2K]

GTO looks mean enough. Not sure about the roof though....
