Since I been an Admin on this board for a long time when looking for a light weekend street terror this long year Infiniti driver, bought an S13!

I bet you guys thought I was too old for one :icesangel:I put the NICO network to work and had Paul aka MOVINGVIOLATION, IMO one of the most competent 240SX folks in the country, look at this car for me.

Its an S13 with a silvia front end and an SR20DET in it.

On his inspection (quotes:"car runs stong", "transmission shifts real well"), I agreed to purchase and am wiring him the money tommorrow.Plus some extra cash to do a couple minor things, it needs policed up (supension, boost controller)

He will drive my new street terror to the March 20th meet for me.

Fred..:fruit

Thanks!!

Yes, I still like the Q and will likely keep it.:)

That is unless I get a very fair offer for it, I will use it as daily driver and the S13 as a weekend street terror.

Fred....:cool:

Mike:Its a Coupe.

Dave:All the hard stuff is done to it, but it still needs wheels/tires,headliner,wetsanding, LSD.

The car is silverstone, I will probably have a grey on gre,y undertstated, so you have to look twice, flamepaint job put on it.

Fred - time to post the "WTB leather interior" :D. There was a guy a month or so ago that wanted to trade his for cloth. Timing's everything.

Congrats Fred. I guess that means you won't be getting into a G coupe anytime soon. I can't wait to check it out at the meet.

thats a very nice looking ride fred. I wish I could make it down to the Spring meet, but my ka decided to blow a headgasket. The shop where its under warranty from is getting me a new motor, but there's no way itll be done in time for the trek down for the meet.

Alti :Maybe you can find a cheap hotel rate or stay free at my place.and ride down to lex from Louisville in my Q?

All:

Paul is hooking me up with good local deals for which i sent extra money:It should be an LSD, a Boost Controoler, Tein springs, new shocks and probably slighlty used Enkei's with Nitto "streetdrags" on the rear and used tires on front.

It 'll also get a oil change to Mobil1 15w-50 before the drive up.
