Why would you invest so much money into a shitty car and make it shittier?
My friend had one, it couldn't go over 100mph cuz the car would start to shake so bad... and it was in good condition too... Do you have like 2lbs of boost to the engine?

when i read "paseo" i thought... oh my god, this is gonna be terrible, as the paseo is in the same league with a ford aspire as far as i'm concerned.
then i saw the wing.... and the rims.... and oh my God! the neons! the rest actually looks good, congratulations on that. you must be running a very small turbo to boost without a load, or an insanely good trim setup. i'd have to say: overall, not too bad. while i do think you put too much money into a car like that, as long as your enjoying it, thats all that matters. and turbo is always a nice sound to hear. |

Forced induction justifies a whole lot.
The bodykit, it'll get you. The ungodly huge shifter arm, it'll get you. The ricery wing, it will get you, for the sake of high spped aerodynamics. But nothing can justify that kinda underglow. So some ricer had a paseo and some money for a turbo. Whoopdey freakin do.

Given I wouldn't piss on a toyota paseo to put out a fire, the car still has a lot of hard work and effort into it im sure. The owner I would imagine is very proud of it and that's why he posted it on here, hoping others would say good job, nice car, rather than make fun of it and make the dude probably feel like complete ass. I say good job on the car man. just my $.02~

man i give this guy mad props for his work in this car!!! I dont like the wing or the neons but other than that it is a clean ass ride!!! Just because it isnt the most popular thing to modify why bag on it. He is just taking a car with about no aftermarket suport and modifing it himself with about no help from anyone that has done it in the past im guessing since i dont see too many of those turboed rolling around. And come on look at the car you want to slap a turbo on! ![]() And you want to turbo this? Come on! ![]() And you call his car a piece of shit!!!!! You have no room to talk shit about his car! |

hey now, we know those volvos can get pretty damn crazy. just look at the 500+ hp ones in that section. this is a slow DL for such a big vid. i think im gonna go get some food...
*addition* ok, not as bad as some of you were *****ing about. I like the overall look. Nice and clean. the wing and body kit certainly could be alot worse. decent interior and seems to be pretty quick. it gets a thumbs up

Mhmm that celica prolly already runs faster than that paseo for one thing, for two, I'm gonna be putting a real turbo on the celica. Which one you ask? Oh well from a Mitsubishi Conquest. Yeah, I do have room to talk, as much as I want, thanks.
Ohhh and the Volvo, hell most Volvo's came/come with turbo's if you weren't stupid and realized that. The stopped on the 240 series in 83, mines an 86. And I wonder how much he spent on his little rice burner for all that, thousands I'm sure. So here's my price rundown: Car: $150 -- Turbo: Free -- Intercooler: Free -- Transmisson Cooler: Free -- Oil Cooler: Free -- Installation: Free(and easy because it has the same engine that the turbo came from). Also, last time I checked there isn't lots of aftermarket parts for 83 Celica's and 86 Volvo's. Basically, you dunno wtf your talking about. Cuz everyone here is talking about how that's A HUGE WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME ON A SHITBOX, my two projects... more-less free. You have my permission to never talk to me again, thx.
