Is it just me or has it been slow in this thread lately? Also that is a good thing to only sell it to someone who will treat it right you don't want an *** to destroy it.

look at the brightside, now you can look for a 5 speed. You have to be ready to pounce when you find a deal, waiting around never works to your advantage.

on a side note, I do wish you'd learn to use some punctuation. It hurts to read your posts.

Good luck on your car search.

There is nothing dramatically wrong with my punctuation. So maybe I forget a few commas here or there. So?

Anyway I am just going to keep looking and maybe I will get lucky.

Anyway what are you looking to spend? If you have 8 grand you should have no problem finding an S14 with an SR already in it.

Does not matter, but I am thinking seriously about getting a 300zx I really like the body style, but I could go for a 240. Not sure on how much I am going to spend just yet though.

well, my car is still under construction. I'm not going to put it up for sale til it's finished. I'm putting the new dash and airbags in it right now, I've already got the front end fixed, it's going to the paint shop next week, then I need to get the passenger side window working, and a few other little things. I may do a 5 lug swap on it, but I'm not sure if those parts are going to be available yet.

Probably going to paint it that new 350z color, san marino blue. For those that don't know, it's a really dark blue, and really pretty.

Did the steering rack fix the problem? Also, good choice on the color, san marino blue would look fan-freaking-tastic on an s14.

yeah that fixed it. the freaking thing is siezed up. But it steers fine now, I just need to finish putting the dash back in and stuff and of course it needs aligned again.

There are 5. The 2 S14s run (the gray one has an SR), and one S13 parts car will crank up and run, but is not driveable. The 2 93 hatches are going to be melded together as one, and then it was to become my drift car, but then Brandon gave me the 89 coupe, which is much rougher than the 93, but much more suitable to be a dedicated track car. We had already found a motor for it, it is in the car, I just need to figure out wiring since I'm doing away with all the accessories and finish buttoning down the motor before it will move under its own power. It is also going to benefit from the 93 parts car.

So once the 93 is done, I may sell it off too. Haven't decided that yet.

Thanks.

Not sure yet. Havent heard anything from my aunt which is pissing me off.

If its not going to happen i may take a year off, work full time then go to local tech school here. Take some time and work on the car and find a job car related or what not.

Its either those two or i still go to NADC. Dan King called but didnt leave a message. Its probably about my dad not doing any of the financial stuff which my dad said he did do.
