I've ran Aristo Mk.II turbo since 2000. I would still have one if I hadn't binned it in July 07 on the M6.:(

 

Ran 450hp theoretically, won 1/4 mile drag comp between car clubs up here, got it running same lap times as a standard Subaru P1 round Knockhill circuit. Even managed to keep pace with a GT3 thru the twisties at Le Mans circuit. Had every mod possible with stock turbos/engine.

 

Aristos rock period. I'm picking up a new one on Saturday hopefully. :cool:

 

 

I am with the 'sleeper' camp and even run stock tail pipes but with uprated downpipe/SARD cat. No bodykits allowed hahahha but foglight removal for better airflow is OK.

 

The listed Aristo is nice...but I have to criticise - no touchscreen! And it's a manual, to be pimping it has to be tiptronic/auto :cool: I can see it's had the expensive manual conversion and there is no rear spoiler so this seems to be a drift-specific Aristo.

Man this looks the dogs doodahs. I'd swap mine for this in a shot but funds just won't stretch that far. The fact that I am in the queue for a manual conversion on top of the money I spent on mine already I'd be in the same price bracket now with this one which is a bigger turbo. One thing I would say is you really really would not want a T78 with the stock aristo auto box be that tiptronic or not as its just too sluggish a box for that size tubby.

I love the rims and as for a touch screen? Who needs that with all the power commanding your full attention :D The rest of the engine spec would be nice as it looks like a bit of cash has been splashed in its direction.

The touchscreen is just bling, no other purpose :)

 

I sat in one that still had the Jap GPS connected...it greeted you in Japanese when you started the motor :cool:

 

Do agree a T78 would suit a manual better. There's an 800hp one with auto-box though and 3.4L bottom end at http://www.king-buyer.co.jp
