Nice Buick! I've always been on the fence about getting those Motegi wheels. They are cheap and light which I like, but the cost makes me think they're not very sturdy. How are you liking them?

Great cars! I've always been a fan of the turbo Regals.

They have been good so far but I havent drilled any potholes etc. Every single aspect of the car improved taking 10 lbs off the rotating mass off each wheel. The total weight savings including the tire weight difference is 12 lbs for each wheel/tire...

Nice rides. I take it that's a T-type, right? What year?

Thanks!
It is 1987 Turbo T, what they call a vin code 7 car. I grew up in the back seat. My dad owned it since late 95 so I was about 6-7 years old when he got it. He saved it from a "collector yard". About 7 years ago he was pressed to sell due to money troubles. I bought it and turned it from the mid 14 second car it was into the low 10 second bruiser it has become. It is a forged piston roller cam 3.9 liter with full arp hardware and was blueprinted and built by Don Cruz out of florida. Runs a 6776 precision dual ball bearing turbo and all supporting mods. Runs mid 11's on stock boost pressures pump gas and in daily driveable mode. Last time at a quarter track I let off half track and went 6.73 1/8th mile at 103mph and coasted to an 11.40 lol. It is a huge pain in the ass sometimes but I love it to death.
