I had a hatch a couple years back but I was driving it down a hwy and my gas line ruptured..yeah it sucked. So now im starting over lol. I will prob just end up throwing a sr like everyone else. But nowadays you can get a rb25 for the SAME PRICE.

Is anyone rocking crap brown int.?? Im in the process of getting all black interior. I hate the brown. Even though its in mint cond.

No it had 257,153 on it...and I had the option of getting the motor with the car or no motor and he drop the price. So I let him drop the price cause thats alot of miles even on a ka. But the car is a 1 owner so its pretty clean. Kyb struts and lowering springs and its got the transmission in and the wiring harness and all that goodness still hooked up. All I really need is just the motor. Im goin to all the local scrap yards to possibly find a decent 1.

Howdy, fellow alabamanian....

The junkyards around here are so limited, specially when it comes to 240's....Good luck with your search. If you need a hood, let me know, have one for sale....

No he has a salvage title that he found out about here recently. And I ran the vin today and it says the car was scrapped and non existent. He is trying to get his money back. Its a messed up situation.
