I picked up my car on Tuesday for $1100. SE model coupe, power stuff works, but I got stuck with crappy steelies and 3 non-matching hubs caps. Dent on hood, dents on front fenders, bad bondo job on right rear fender, cracked dash, no stereo or speakers, working HUD!, oh and the engine doesn't run.

Also, all the valves are clean now thanks to my brother.

Ok, pictures won't work. Yesterday I borrowed a shop crane from a friend, ordered more stuff from my local Nissan dealership, and broke a bunch of bolts that secure the cam bearings due to a faulty torque wrench. Setbacks.... The rest of my parts come in by Wednesday, and I'll drop in the motor next weekend. Oh, I'm picking up my GTiR turbo today. I still need a z32 MAF, SAFC2, down pipe, test pipe, o2 pipe, bov and hotpipe, a couple u-bends, some vacuum hose and a MBC. I'll try pictures later.
