Any magna owners out there?

[mookers]

I don't like that Magna because...

1. Colour
2. I'm not a fan of fully sik JDM fitment. I prefer wheels and tyres flush with the body (*gasp* !!!) - and yes I know my own car is not up to par in this regard.
3. The spoiler kinda looks like a growth.

But as I said, it's great that people like different stuff. Makes the world more interesting, even if some of us have to shield our eyes once in a while lol

Hmmm... I don't mind the way it looks right now...

New wheels and roof/boot spoilers on the way...

Kranze?

Nah just the Work VS-SS I picked up a little while ago. 18x9 & 18x10. Big dish and stuff. Also have D-Max roof & boot spoilers. Not as "erect" as on that Diamante but a similar sort of idea.

I owned 2 Magnas before the eterna,the first was a 88 magna elite with the electronic dash and i converted that to manual and put a vr4 4g63 turbo in it.The second magna was a 2002 silver TJ magna VRX, had the thin spoke factory 17's rims.went well but only hated the interior because it had that splashed paint print on seats that was same as base model

I worked in the bodyshop at MMAL making Right Hand rear quarters for Magnas for over 8 years ,They had Evo pajeros and Lancer Evos just sitting there rusting (test cars) that they thrashed and then later crushed...Ahh those were the days..back when they were open..ha..ha!

im gonna say i love both those magna's (the red one and the yellow one) id prefer them in black tho. but they both ooze early VIP.

the crazy mega flushed demon camber stance is something that the current vip scene is turning away from, too much american influence imho, as theyre doing 20's and 22's (at least they 11inches or so wide tho)

Although i love the look of excess camber on VIP style cars I can understand why you wouldn't do it, tyres are way too expensive.

Bought a manual 98 Solara manual, new from Penrith.
Still going with 265K, but needing head work.
Plus in November, last year, had two people back into it.
Only one person left their details....

Great car, will be sad to see it go.

Hopefully get my Legnum this week

I'm seeing a fair few magnas now with 400k+ kms on the clock and still going quite well. Definitely well built.

It's probably been said before, but if you're into/own a magna.. www.aussiemagna.com is the place to be.. great fun bunch of folks.

Personally I have a 2003 VR-X TL, Manual - used to have a 1994 TS Wagon. My new ones a fantastic ride, I'm hoping to get a S2 Legnum next year once I'm off my Ps and have paid this one off!

 

[knickers]

I tried to play with 2 nice magnas this evening, a black turboed one and a white one that may have been tubro. No luck :'( haha

[bradc]

It doesn't look that low in the first pic! I like the exhausts though

 

[sik_wagon99]

[CLuTZ]

[Poita]

Yeah I am, not much tho- that site isn't one of my favourites.....!

Going to install an in-line trans cooler soon, some audio gear, glare strip and maybe get my ECU flashed for power and economy.


She's a real comfy ride- no squeaks, rattles or bumps! Fully optioned, apart from a sunroof!
