Good afternoon!
I'm Dennis, 29 years old and from Zoetermeer, the Netherlands.
Have been a fan of the Legnum for a few years now. My first contact with the VR4 was in England, three years ago during Japfest. I then did a track session with my mazda mx3 amongst some of the clubmembers here..
Given its size, I never really followed through on buying one. Though now it's really starting to itch.
My car history is quite varied. The tuning virus started with my mazda 323F bg, but really set off with my Mazda MX3. I swapped in a 2.5l V6 myself and did quite a few track sessions with it. Was a blast to drive!
But I wanted a bit more power and was a big fan of RWD, so I moved on to a Nissan 200sx S13. Swapped in a SR20DET engine and made it fully track ready. I have driven it for about a year at various events in the Netherlands and England, but we then came to the conclusion that we wanted a car with power, but one which is also good for touring (not rigid like an H-beam, resulting in a week of back and head aches after a long ride).
So, we moved on to my current Skyline R33 Gtst. Fantastic car! Serious case of "Ain't broken, don't fix". Now I know where the term "smiles per gallon" comes from!
Only problem is the internal space in relation to its weight. Since I am having an increase of mouths to feed next year, I want to continue my hobby, but still be able to fit everything into one car.. ;)
The logical step for me, as a Nismo fan, would be a Stagea, but the thing that bothers me with the Stagea is the over all look and the weight. When I look at a Legnum, there's really not much of a choice to make!
I'm in no hurry to buy but I'm looking around for a good deal. I'm after a facelift legnum in good state and preferably one that excepts a R33 skyline in return.. ;)
In the meantime I'm having some good reads over here.. :P
And my god, Legnums are beauties!
Ow and for those who where wondering, the lineup (minus about 6 different daily's):
