Ok guys to start it off. I owned this car for a year and a little longer around 5 yrs ago. I sold it to buy another 240 i liked better but i was wrong after i sold it, I was very upset with myself and for the past 5 Yrs I have been looking for thias car to buy her back. So about a month ago i had sum mulah in hand and a friend of mine called me up and told he had seen the car back behind a womans house and it was privately up for sale. So i cruised down to check it out and man it was a mess. The passenger window had been rolled down for a couple of months needless to say the interior was filthy. Tires were balled and brakes were really really bad. Windsheild is cracked horribly and dents are all over the place and clearcoat is pelling in various places. sooooo I bought it anyways

below are sum pics i took with my phone, later when i get time to start installing parts, i will post with a better camera.

As of right now im going to pick a full 5-lug conversion and a set of se wheels and to go along with that all new ball joints in the front and a j30 in the next week

Mods to the car: megan cat back exhSpec flywheelSubframe collars

I forgot to add why i love this car so much. When i bought it, it had 96,462 miles on the clock. i have all records of the maintence when i had it. I had 19's on it and it was just vip as hell. I was in high school so it was a show stopper lol and it got me layed alot. It was by far the cleanest one out of the 6 i have owned. So it is run down and in bad shape and im going to restore it and make it a hell of a car. Expect a build thread on this car in the future....

The night i picked it up.

After i cleaned it up and painted the wheels white

This is my JDM pit bull, Silvia

the boston is my dads, i dont really like him. he pee'd on my bed once so that done it for him lol but thanks robojew on the wheels. it was a spare of the moment thing. i wanted to change the car up a little bit. i'm really diggin the white wheels scheme so im gonna have the se wheels powder coated white when i get around to put the 5 lug on. Its so depressing when u work all the time and u cant work on ur car.
