This is my baby I got this car for FREE! It was sitting at one of my friends house for like 2 years and it was covered in pine sap and mold or somethin. It had 3 different wheels and a dounut on it and no rear calipers. The engine had 212,000 miles on it and the plug wires were all broke off like half way down the little shaft thing. the hatch window was busted

So I took a gamble and me and my homie pulled this deathtrap like 15 miles to my house. I got an engine transmission and calipers with 140,000 miles on them for 150 and dropped that in on all megan mounts.

It already had the intake and exhaust and some eibach springs I put the wheels on that I had layin around. I also added a walbro pump, new clutch master, 1 piece stainless clutch line, exedy clutch,and some other stuff i cant think of right now

So now that I'm broke when i find a job i'm gonna put a rb20 in it..... I think.Along with some coils and all that good stuff Oh and get a new fender and some paintlet me know what u thank

No rust but it still needs some work, like the interior Whats wrong with the wheels? I think they're straight for now.

yeah for free thats not bad at all. rb20 would be cool, but seems like it would be a lot of work. it makes your speedo and tach not work, plus there are less parts out for it. just what i have noticed, at least make sure you search all your options before deciding. but nice

The car doesnt look like a bad start for you being into it for so cheap! Good luck building it, cant wait to see how it ends up..
