Been lurking for about 4 years. made an account to download fsm's here and there. forgot what that account was so I made a new one. Currently I drive a 1990 nissan stanza. Planning on being the only one running that still looks good. Not planning on too much just rebuild the engine, new suspension(custom coilovers), new wheels,tires, and paint and thats it. Keeping it simple. Gonna try and show the world what stanza's should look like. Thanks for Looking. Maybe see some of you around.

BTW I would love to get my hands on a HNU12, but fat chance.

FU12 Stanza pretty much the same thing as Pinnys, just LHD and less options all together.

These seem to be the popular car to crash in considering they are rolling death traps.

You need to either load your car with a bunch of fatties, cut your spings if you want to die in style, get yourself some coilovers if you don't care about ride quality, or springs if you do but you want a lower stance.

Do it or I'll ban you.

Edit-Curses, I'm not blue. :(
