Long story short, we never finished the project. But I did start driving and from there it was over. I am currently 23 and I am on my 9th car. I was introduced into the tuner world and got my 94 civic hatch. Then, because of the wonderful smog regulations in California, I had to be rid of it but that is when the magic started.
I was on the market for a nother car when my buddy showed me this drifting video. The driver was behind the wheel of a gorgeous S13 hatch! It was love at first sight. I checked all the news papers I could find. Checked the internet and finally found her. She was a beautiful 91 240sx coupe. I was wanting a hatch but when I test drove the coupe I wanted nothing else.
I was super stoaked. I went to a shop in LA and picked up a silvia front clip and had it on in one day. Well one night I was driving home and it was about 10pm. The town I'm from is pretty well lit at night on the main roads. When I saw this little car pulling out in front of me I thought no way is my luck this bad. Sure enough smashed to pieces!
So I salvaged what parts I could and was on the hunt for another 240. This time I found a hatch and I didn't let it get away. I had that great s-chasis for about a year and a half when I let my friends talk me into getting a civic and selling my s13. I still have the civic today but I recently made the best decision of my life. I bought an even more amazing car than either s13's.
About 3 months ago I decided it was time to get another car that would be a bit more reliable. I went to a local Nissan dealership just to poke my nose around and see what they had. I was a little disappointed when they said they had nothing on the lot that was a sports car besides the Hyundai Genesis coupe. Now don't get me wrong, I had to test drive it. Still it was missing something. I asked the salesman if they had a Z in the back or somewhere. No dice. So I was like ok, I'm out of here. Then he said that he could check their other dealerships.
So they shipped down a car and called me one day. I pull up and asked, "Well, where is my car?" And just then they pulled it out of the back. Wow, I fell in love again! So they gave me a pretty good deal and now I'm a proud owner of a 08 Z33 and I couldn't be happier. It is all stock for now but most likely in the coming months I'll get some rims and an exhaust and lower it.
Now I know you guys like pics so I will oblige you.
