Welcome Macca. Another Tony. Jeez, that name's getting a bit common :D

Nice list of rides you have there. How do you find the TB STi to drive after those?

Thanks Smythie.

The MX5 would be the most pleasurable (not the fastest by any means). Just give it some corners!
The 323 Turbo would be scariest (no turbo until 3500, then everything at once - capable of changing lanes without notice)
The 3.0 RB probably the smoothest out of the bunch in terms of power delivery (made it an enjoyable ride).
The STI is probably the best comprise of handling, power and comfort. I've got no complaints at this stage (owned it for 4 or 5 months now).

Welcome Tony # 382! LOL! Just kidding man. Welcome to the forum! Come check us all out at the next meet. Hopefully it will change your mind about not wanting to mod anything else on the car. :P

Welcome mate!

I'm sure after seeing what a few of us have done to our machines we'll have you up & modding again in no time ;)

Where abouts are you in Sydney mate? Looks like those photos were taken at Taren Point!? Do we have another Shire boy with us?

Oh, & welcome to Team Wagon :D

GO TEAM WAGON!!! :D

Is Team Wagon so insecure that it needs to employ mandatory conscription now? :twisted:

Thanks for welcomes.

Right bridge, wrong side! Won't catch me on that shire side unless I'm heading a lot further south.

Don't feel I need to apologise for being a member of team wagon! Owned enough to qualify.

Or you may catch me there if there is a good photo shot looking away from the shire.
