Jesus H Christ that man. Texas Pete looks like some form of neo JDM/West Coast gangbanger lowrider hybrid wagon

Its not the car you've got, its what you've done to it.

Just look at Tommo's Micra and Almera, equally as bonkers comparitively to Jamie P's wagons IMO!!!

What do you want to know specifically dude?

I can tell you about the general pros and cons of torque convertors if you want or chat to you about the benefits of high stall TCs too if you want

Toyota made one of the most feared street cars in the world only to cancel it in favor of a fleet of completely boring cars. Yea they may sell but not one has a soul.
