I've sold the MX5 as well as the Mark II and stupidly bought a new car right away because I couldn't pass up the price.
My secondary daily for when running a V8 premium unleaded gets a bit too costly. (The V8 S4 really loves to drink gas and eat away at my wallet.) Not that a V6 Nissan is much better, but I nearly went down the Subaru path again. I've already ordered some coilovers so that I can get it sitting stupid (as usual) so look forward to that Car is stock with the exception of tinted headlights and Apex'i exhaust tips previous owner installed. sounds pretty good actually. Look forward to another one of my stupid car builds. I really should just buy a porsche and be done with everything else. If someone knows about a good 930 or 993, tell me and I'll sell this and the S4 right away. |

And in the S13 goes. She'll be spending a week at the nearby garage. I got some timing problems and a random knock here and there and I don't have the time over the next 2 weeks to do anything at all so I have to leave it there.
Also @Dick, nice FRS man. I have a Rocketbunny BRZ myself. Lemme know if you need any help with it |

So, I was bored today and didnt have much work to do in the shop, so I decided to finally put the Caterham together. I elected to remove the supercharger in place for ITB's because of, 1, gas milage, and 2 I like how they look and sound more. (secret 3, theres no supercharged Duratec floating around for slrr)
In true Caterham fashion, the car came as JUST a frame... So, it was no problem fitting the suspension and wheels. Those Volks look sweet!! The engine of course slotted right in, with absolutly no modification The rest of the driveline came next. the transmission, driveshaft and differential went right in. Next was cooling, exhaust and fuel tank. Then seats, dash, and battery. Tried to put body on but realized exhaust was in the way, so had to remove it to fit Rest of body and exhaust back on. Nosecone, fenders, hood, lights The dash Engine with ITB's Annnd then painted the most obnoxious color possible. I want to put anyone and everyones sticker onto it, so pm me a sticker, or post it here and I'll stick it on somewhere. |

Sick Caterham. Less rim, more tyre would look even better.

***Restarting my roleplay because reasons.***
Hello everybody! I'm new here and would like to introduce myself. I live in Bulgaria and I'm a big car fan, although I haven't got too much knowledge about mending/tuning cars so I'd use some of you guys' help. Anyways, now to my car. It's a 2008 Vauxhall Corsa VXR. My dad works in the UK and he's there most of year, and this is his old car he's given to me. Still running it on UK plates because I can't be arsed to change them right now. It's an OK car, atleast it's better than driving a scooter. As you see it's been hit on the left side and the parts haven't been painted yet. That's because my dad isn't a good driver and he doesn't really care a lot about his car. The major thing that bugs me out this car is the fact it's RHD. I've been on a few cross-country trips with it and overtaking trucks is a nightmare because you can't see shit and you need a friend to tell you if something is coming the other way. To be honest I'm not sure if I should keep it or sell it. I think it could turn into a quite unique car. |

I finally got all the wires hooked up and functioning! Well, I had a minor fire in the old wiring from the car but I always have an extinguisher around when I work with the wiring. The engine starts but the idle is a touch too high. Might fix that a bit later. I've also found a grille and a hood. Don't worry, the hood won't stay baby blue. I had some fun with it; It's a doughnut machine

The Skyline is back from paint and I must say she is a beauty. Cherry red and curves for days. I had it De-badged but I am thinking of getting the G37 badges or just slapping my 370gt stuff back on. what do you guys think? this is my daily so she will be around for a while.
Also @dxg I got a sticker for ya, We can match Also I got an email from this guy who wants to get into the drifting scene and wants to trade is Gc Impreza for my 240. It doesn't run, but if the body is straight It could be a nice toy to play with. Im headed to check it out now |

Ey Papa, I have a friend selling a redtop SR20. It's pretty much stock with a T28 and is going for quite a small amount of cash if you're interested.

I could sell you the 18x11s off my S13, they're from the E39 M5 so they'd be kind of at home. That or 18x11 Work VSXX 2 piece's. The works need new tires, the E39s have probably 95% of tread left all around. They're both 5x120 as shaforostov mentioned |

# JDMgoatleg : How much you asking and pic maybe? $1200 for these with the fresh tires, in pretty much pristine condition $900 for the works, 2 of the tires are like 50% worn and the other 2 are about 90% worn. Two of them have mild rash on the lips. I can repaint them for you if you'd like, too. |
