Any old mods still around that knew Paul (movingviolation240)? I'm one of his little brothers trying to track down his old cars ('93 s14/ '95 sc300) and this is my last hope to try and locate one. I know this is such a needle in a haystack but I just want to try. Any help/stories would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Welcome!

It looks like Movingviolation240 was last on the forums 17 years ago, on Feb 4, 2005.

Here's his last post: post976974.html#p976974

Welcome aboard!

I knew Paul... let's see if any of the other OGs have any leads on his rides.

Noel, Paul passed away in 2005... he was one of our early Moderators.

I also remember Paul quit well. :sad:
Visited him once in Florida too.

I did once buy a SR swapped Silver 1989 240SX notchback, off him but I believe he was selling that S13 for a friend and that it wasnt "his" per se.
It had a redtop, a 5 speed manual, it was a painted in 350Z silver (over the original candy apple red)
The interior was partially stripped to save weight.
No rear seats, no heater , no air conditioner, no radio, no headliner, no floorliner, lawnmower battery and very light magnesium 16 inch Enkei wheels.
Vehicle was quite quick, despite having "only" a redtop with a T25Turbo and not the blacktop.
Being a manual it was very easy to "whoosh" at people with the BOV.

I later sold that car in Louisville, KY after I put a Nismo 1.5way LSD into it to a member of https://www.502streetscene.net/.
This was in the last week of Dec 2004 or the first half of January 2005
The person who bought it from me had the tranny break on him within a week and I ordered a replacement transmission for him from Enjuku.com sometime in January or early February 2005, so if they still have a record of the sale they will have his name + address.

But I do not believe this is one of the vehicles you are looking for.
But for completeness sake I gave you the info on it here.
Best of luck to you in your search!

Man - thank you guys for taking the time to respond. We were sharing some photos of his maroon s14 and the sc300 and it reminded me of the NICO forums. I practically went thru his entire post history. I know the chances of finding two super specific cars is like a needle in a haystack - but it's worth a shot!

Thanks again - much appreciated.

I never met him, but he was my inspiration for putting a CA18DET into an S14. IIRC, his passing was one of the reason's I was moved up to Moderator. I'm sure I annoyed the hell out of him with all my questions at the time, but he was always kind and patient with me. I won't be any help in finding his cars, but I want you know how well loved he was here.

Yup, I remember him. Never got to meet him though. Didn't he have a GIANT turbo for that SC300?
