Yeah, Dave Lum's VG30DE car was found all over the net back in the day.

Hey Brandon,

Did you see this one? I think your car has a twin...with the exception of the wheels.
Yours of course looks way cleaner.

Haha. Crazy. Too much to list. Must not be too serious about selling. He could have at least said which FI motor was in there. Douchebaggeries I say...

Phhh, it's $1 - doesn't matter if it's clean. The rims are worth that.

I'd like to see that car on my dyno. Or better yet, my car beside his at a stop light with no po po around and about 1/2 mile of congestion free road ahead of us. BTW I only make 319 to the tires with my setup. For some reason I have a feeling he would be leaving town a bit disappointed. 371hp with a stock T25?... IDK.... is it possible?
I accidentally went full retard.

Seems I am getting a lot of attention on cardomain since the photo of the day. Lots of e-mails and visits :)

Hoping to get SOTW on there now. Maybe if anyone here thinks my car is worthy, you could help give me a nomination for showoff of the week on there??? But only if you think my car deserves it. No handouts :)

No joke...I can't imagine a 510 with over 225hp and near equal torque being much fun to drive.....just alot of wheel spin, unless it had a solid rear axle and some very very tall and wide sticky tires. Ah and no, Forza is not a realistic simulation of 350hp in a 510.
