how's the condition of the corolla?

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

Hopefully thats a hott car

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

completely stock, never been modified. i think thats the best part. has a dent in the drivers fender, that will be easy to fix. has tires with less than 500 miles on them. interior is still complete, kinda dirty but still in good shape. all of the electronics still work. headlights pop up quick with no problems. no oil stains underneath that are excessive. overall, not bad at all. for 500 bucks, im pretty damn happy.

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

sweet. There's a 85 sr-5 here locally for sale for 900. Perfect condition. 5 spd, only 50k on it! A buddy of mine is looking at buying it.

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

i got the money earlier today and im going to go pick it up around 9 or so tomorrow morning.

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

oh most definitely.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

btw, what color is it, the white and black tw tone?

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

Rob,I know this shoulds like a cliche, but I would concentrate on your intake and exhaust. They are pretty easy to modify on the '02 Altima. The '02 Altima has a big restriction from where the header meets the exhaust piping. It appears in the small section that its crimped. I am sure they did it for emissions. Does your state have emissions testing?

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

we have no emmision testing whatsoever, however i keep going back about modding the altima, or just keeping it stock (so its easier to sell) and getting rid of it in a few years and picking up something else, like a 24o, or something i could afford.

Post by **Cold_Zero** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

Intake and test pipe would be cheap and help out the QR motor in your Altima. I would make it more fun to drive. Those mods by themselves would not break the bank.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

if i can't get a 24o by this time next year or shortly there after,im going to mod the altima

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

bro you can find 240's all over the place, if you cant find one your not looking hard enough

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

^very true. I've seen 3 or 4 for sale here in town and this is a town of 40k people counting UNI.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

yes but i need one for fairly cheap, and i only want a 91-93, has to be 5spd, and i really dont want one with 14ok on it, i think im just going to buy one with high mileage, thats it good condition, and buy another KA block and biuld it, get the car painted, and sit for a while and wait for money to re-couporate

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

yeah well 89-93 are all the same (chassis wise) except for the front bumper which you can get for like $50 or so and you can find one with high miles for like $1000 or maybe even cheaper and just swap the DOHC motor in

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

nothing wrong with the sohc. I've grown quite fond of mine. And I've had the DE, in my altima.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

well id prefer the DE, but its not going to stop me from buying an 89-9o if i find one for a good price.

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

that's how it was when I bought mine. Settled for my 89 cuz it was cheap and didnt have any rust and the body was very striaght.

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

oh ok cool yeah what kinda intake do you have on your car?

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

on the altima, thats a hotshot cai. i love that stupid thing.

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

really did you have to do allota cuting to put in the cold air extension

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

just had to cut the hole under the battery to accomodate the 3 inch tube for the cai. wasnt too bad.

Post by **Sil240** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

oh ok cause i talked to injen and they said there was too much cutting to make a cold air, thats y they make a short ram with the heat sheildcustom altima was pretty expensive, cause its 189 for it and then 65 for the heat sheild, i was about to make my own at that point

Post by **Asleep Altima** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

yeah that is quite a bit of dough... i paid 179 for mine total. took me about 2 hours to cut it cuz i was taking my time really badly. a die grinder with a nice cutting tip will zip right thru it no problem.

Post by **Altiman94** » Mon Sep 01, 2003 7:31 am

I used a dremel tool to enlarge the hole when i had cai on my altima. Didn't take but 10 minutes.
