Here's my daily driver hot rod. Its a 06 Toyota Tacoma with the X-Runner package (18"wheels, body kit, suspension etc) 4.0 6cyl with 6sp. Lighting is making it look orange on my camera phone for some reason though. Its stock excpet for the black headlight mod, B&M shifter, and sound system.

He's actually got the 5.2 gasser, what we really need to know is if its a Magnum or not and what fuel injection system he has. If its multiport instead of throttle body, 300 crank hp might be possible with headers, a hotter cam, rockers, and a little ecu tuning. Some aftermarket heads on top of that should take you over 300 crank hp no problem. Check out some dakota sites, there's a bunch and have alot of info.

'04 nissan 350z roadster... touring package (fully adjustable heated leather seats and heated mirrors, 240 watt 7 speaker Bose sound system, etc.). not much done to it yet, but i've got big plans for her. so far i added tints, a plenum/throttle spacer, popcharger (CAI kit), and race pipes. soon will be a dual catback exhaust, a new ECU reflash from technosquare, wheels and tires, and possibly some custom paint. down the road i'd like to add a bolt-on supercharger.

Here is 2 out of 4 of our current stable, though these two happen to be my two favorites.



The closer is our 06 BMW M5 SMG. We got it at the end of January this year. It was a CPO. No mods - it's already unbelievably fast...every time I drive it I can't believe a 4000lb sedan can move like it does (not just acceleration though, handling and braking are impeccable as well).

The further one is my personal daily driver, an 04 G35 Coupe 6MT. I actually just got it back from the dealership for its 60K service, and she runs much better now. They basically replaced every fluid in the car and cleaned all the fuel injectors and what not. She has a few mods. Slotted front rotors with semi-race pads, cool air intake, lightweight pulleys, engine damper mount, rear strut bar, sway bars front and rear, dark tint. The car came stock with Brembo brakes front and rear.

Our other two (not pictured) vehicles are a 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 w/ 5.7L Hemi and a 2002 Honda Accord V6. The Honda is stock while the Ram has a K&N drop in inside the stock air box.

The truck has to be one of the most deceiving vehicles I have ever driven. You would never think a large, 5000lb truck would be fast at all, but even with just 2 gears to its 105mph limiter, it'll easily keep up to my G35 which has almost 4 gears to the same speed and 1500lbs less weight...

That M5 is an absolute monster, I'd be very impressed if anyone posts a stock car that will touch that!

I'm getting an M35 as a 'sleeper' project for my wife (who will drive it without any clue) that will get many well hidden but easily activated enhancements

I remember a article I read years back about guys getting 600+hp out of those Talons and Eclipes,scary horsepower for such a little car. 10sec 1/4's are a reality. Impressive stuff.
