You probably measured the widths of the wheels with a tape measure across the distance from one outer lip to the other, correct? Wheels are actually not measured that way, but instead from the inner bead lip. Thus, an 8" wide wheel as specified by a manufacturer, would measure out to around 9", give or take, across the whole width, including the rims/lips. How much did you end up having to space the wheels? And can you easily drive it and do full lock turns?
Re: (one ton garage)
no spacers...it actually fit better then i expected since you were saying that it wouldn't fit. as for the turning i can't make full turns because it hits that lip thing in the fender well... i just need to hit that down then i should be able to make full turns...
as for the pics and mods sorry i didnt post more of the build i was just in a hurry to finish it and get it to the show....
anyways i did the full sr swap with basic upgrades- blitz intercooler, blitz blow off, megan ss manifold, hks actuator, apexi air filter, apexi avc-r, blitz turbo timer... i also installed a brand new top with new window and headliner. also 300zx front calipers with cross drilled slotted rotors all around with ss lines... blahblahblah the works... to lazy to type everything... thanks for the comments!!!

i CAN NOT understand why people do this? why would you put a bunch of time and effort into a project car just to turn around and sell it. you just got it finished and now you want to get rid of it? it's like when i see a car in a magazine and then a few weeks later i see the same car on ebay!
sorry, i don't mean to go on an off-topic rant. i think you should just keep the car and enjoy it for a while.
if you're bent on selling it, it's hard to determine a "reasonable" price. you just put a ton of parts into it and a lot of hours. what's that worth? i'd say a good clean shell with 100-150k miles is worth $3500 as a base. then add money for aftermarket/jdm stuff and come up with a price.
good luck either way.

I don't quite understand this concept either...unless one is in a ****ty financial situation. ZFever did the same exact thing with their vert. As soon as they got it in Modified Mag, I saw that thing on Ebay.DeXteR wrote:

Re: (BOOMSHAKALAKA)
I have never even read this thread which is pretty rare because i'm on here every day lol.
you car came out amzaing and it also came out fast! you must have put alot of money into the car at least 20k how much do you plan on saleing it for? you might take a big lost i'm not sure what car's go for in hawai.
as for why people sell there cars on ebay right after it was featuerd in a magazine is because it's the best time to get top dollar for there car.
you need to talke what you put into the car and that should give you a good idea on what price you should let it go for.

We all know that all the time and money invested in a car will never be retreived but realisticly I could see you selling it for $12,000So how much are you actually selling it for?nis-s13 wrote:help!i'm thinking of selling my car.how much do you guys think i should ask for it???whats a reasonable price...

Re: (nis-s13)
I would keep it, it's . You spent so much money on it, it would be a waste, atleast use it for a season.

Re: (nis-s13)
Glad to see that your keeping the car. you wont regret it if you would have tried to sale it you would have lost big time. 1. you wont have a sick vert and 2. you would have lost a lot of money.nis-s13 wrote:well i decided to keep the car since yeah i did put a lot of money into it and i know i won't get all my money back probably not even half...
