lol coming back to the car fringe? You said that same thing about the sc400. You know you want to come back to car racing Smile

.RJ · 09-14-2010, 02:04 PM

lol, no fucking way do I want to race those things again. I want something cheap and fun to drive around in, but the problem is I dont want to deal with maintaining something cheap.

Stay....away....

Although it is very tempting and practical and fun it will get broken into and/or stolen. Go ahead....ask me how I know.

Hmm you had a GSR im guessing? Yeah I heard they have problems with getting stolen, once they see the GS-R badge on the back people go crazy. Yeah I want a 300zx more anyway. If anyone see's one worth looking at give me a heads up(even if it isnt a 300zx)

@ RJ And you know you want to get a NA 300zx :mrgreen:

.RJ · 09-14-2010, 03:02 PM

No, what I really want is an S2000. Scratch that, a Ducati. But I want to buy a house next year.

Not even. If Jay Ray has the title to a Honda, somebody else will be driving it 50% of the time...

Around the university of richmond is what the thing said, i can get directions and if you didn't mind doing that it would be awesome cause idk if my dad will be able to see it Saturday and I wouldn't be able to see it/get it till next Saturday when I go home. But if you could and then take pics I would be so grateful! :bow: The only pic I saw showed a messed up lip but that was it the rest looked really good but i want to see the interior and engine. If you could test drive it and stuff that would be awesome! When I find the address ill pm you. Thanks!! 8)

That one sounds a little scary to me. The car hasn't ever been full throttle and isn't driven regularly. I would have to go on an extensive test drive before buying that thing. It could be worth looking into though. However, I know next to nothing about those cars.

caa337 · 09-15-2010, 01:25 PM

Yeah im not gonna get it but kinda wish i would take a risk but i need something reliable, sounds fun as hell though lol.

Still gonna try to look at the blue 300z and will prolly have to go with that.

EDIT: read this:

Sorry, the least I will take is $3800.00 cash I just spent $2200. on the new injectors with paper work to prove it. I just cant accept $3000.00 Yes it is a 5 speed manual Ill have to send you the info on the subwoofer Im not sure if they are 12 or 15's

and i said

Oh im sorry I can't afford that. I wish you luck in selling it though. I don't see how you paid that much for injectors when you can get expensive aftermarket ones that are made for like 500+ horsepower cars for 500 for a set of 6. Seems like you got charged way to much. Not to be a downer but it might be hard to sell for 3800 because it isnt a turbo or doesn't have any mods to increase the price. Most of these sell for 3k and you can even look up the kelly blue book value which is 3000.

Not paying 3800 for that.

hahah CA18DET? Wow, dont see much of those around, they are alright, and if stock I would have said booyah. But its got ebay parts alllllllll over it, and hasnt even ran full throttle nor been registered? Avoid...there are plenty more fish in the sea.

Yeah im not gonna touch that.

caa337 · 09-15-2010, 09:14 PM

Okay so this is HOPEFULLY the one im getting, its owned by a cyroptactor and owned by a dentist before that so its been taken care of. he just needs to mount the speaker. The lip is messed up but it isnt serious. he pulled a little too close to a parking bumper.

Do I get some approval from the old-squad gang? lol

CaptainHenreh · 09-15-2010, 09:33 PM

Looks good, but maintenance is more important. How many miles, when was the TB changed, etc...

Gonna find that out for sure :thumbup:
Its a 93 and it has 147k miles.

Dave · 09-15-2010, 09:57 PM

Yeah, the blue appears to be in good shape. However, don't assume that just b/c presumably rich people owned it that its in good shape. They're just as oblivious as the rest of the population when it comes to auto care and they stay rich by cutting their losses and letting somebody else grow poor fixing their old/broken car. Whats the maintenance history like?

Person spent $2200 on injectors b/c of labor. This should be a clue as to what you're getting yourself into...

Also you seem hell bent on getting one of these in the next week. I don't know if I'm hating or not, but I love every new post in this thread b/c it always starts with "looks like this is the one I'm gonna be getting". Part of me wants it to end, and part of me loves it; le sigh...
