Title: 13B in a Yaris???
Post by: chrisJDM on March 25, 2008, 10:57:22 AM
My mate has just phoned me and said he wants to sell his GTO and buy a sensible car so had the idea of buying a Yaris.  Then he said he wants to try and put a 13B in a Yaris, i just went along with what he was saying and told him to ring up one of the specialists and ask them what they think.  Just so they could laugh at him.  To be honest when i next see him a reckon i might just punch him in the face and tell him to stop being so stupid.

but it is stupid if its your only car that you want to use all the time including commuting, he has no interest in drag racing or track racing or anything, just wants something to show off in and boast about.

So he\'s selling his GTO to get a "sensible car" and then stick a 13B in which is really juicy at the best of times? Kinda makes it pointless getting a sensible car surely?

Definately punch him in the face followed by a fart in his general direction ;)

but i reckon you should give your mate a slap its always funny slapping your mates.
