Lovely Mustang. I think it's that rear quarter window and that whole thing. Just makes me want to hnnng.
Unfortunately the camera won't switch between external and internal mics during filming, so all you get is static goodness.
My Sunday is complete, essentially.
As well, as can happen, I found myself in Northern Mexico on a completely deserted road today. Really.
Unfortunately it was still impossible to get any WOT :/
You have to plan for those sort of thing and not have a camera jammed on the column, and shitty all seasons that like to break loose at 80 (evidenced around :50)
At any rate, even at WOT, the bone stock r33 is not the quickest, especially not with engine management issues like mine.
I'm struggling a little bit with whether to stay stock as can be or make it a monster. What would Oppo do?

Keep it mostly stock, replace anything that has been fatigued and start with suspension, brakes and tires. I would keep the power in check because things will last longer generally and it will be a better all around driver for it too. Maybe look into an engine tune if you want to squeeze a bit more out of it, I can't imagine someone hasn't found a way for you to get more power and even better fuel economy. The best way is to go step by step, don't make large bounds because it is always possible to move forward but that isn't the case should you want to move back. Better tires so you can put the power down, suspension to let you place the car exactly where you want to go and a beefy set of brakes so you have the peace of mind that you can stop at the drop of a hat. My advice should you decide to go the route of "all hail the right foot planted firmly down!" is that all the initial engine work should first be focused on what should have been corrected before it left the factory. It is important to fix any weaknesses before going all Jeremy Clarkson screaming power until the inevitable bang. Maybe upgrade cooling components and look around for a nice turbo upgrade.
