£V JF1's RP and Stuff. [TO BE MOVED TO THE ABANDONED, UNTIL I USE IT AGAIN AS T…

JF1 · 2017-09-12T18:36:42+00:00

I'm starting this on a short note. This is an RP. I'm starting with 150£V. My salary is 200£V to be collected by week. Also I bought an Altezza off Zero for 100£V, sight unseen (for current condition, as he did a nice engine swap with its engine). Pictures soon. Finaces; Week 1; 150£V Altezza Chassis; 100£V Total; 50£V

If that nardi and those wantanabe's are real, you can make good profit on them.
And the engine in the civic is probably a d16 rather than a b16

# KondzixsPL :
Or a FSO Polonez truck, can do maad skids cuz fr layout and is cheap,

I have that mod (and the hearse) and it's actually not that cheap in the game, there are much cheaper cars that can be built... both chassis and parts prices. It's not a bad mod though.

JF1

Looks good then, can you PM a re-upload?

Added 2 minutes later:

Also, yeah, probably a D16, I made a small error.

Added 25 minutes later:

They are real ones, but are slightly beat up, as they've sat, as is the Nardi to a lesser extent.

Added 50 minutes later:

11.46£V left, now to do some work on the three pieces of junk. The Civic is the only one safely running though.

JF1

I may be out on a mission to save as many junk cars as possible (in RP).

Added 57 seconds later:

Also update tomorrow, because Fraps doesn't want to work.

So, here's how it looks. Admittedly with leaves and stuff removed. It's paint, while in pretty nice condition, is underneath the dust and dirt from it sitting.

This is the interior, in contains a nice Nardi wheel, and had a bit of dirt and rot sitting, but is mostly good.

The soft top is, though I'm sure it's leaky, relatively okay, as it's been sitting in storage, so it hasn't faded/fogged up.

The Watanabes are quite nice, but are pretty beaten up, and have a bit of a confusing colour, rusty beige.

This is the engine (someone find me a B-series engine mod, if you want this to be fixed), it's (for now, I'll fix it, if I find the right engine) a NA8C, in a nice black paint, faded from time, and a dusty red cylinder head cover. With added rust.

Finances;
131.46; Whatever was left from last week.
-100.00; Nissan Skyline R33 GTR Rims.
+130.00; Some vintage Computer enthusiast parts sold.
-150.00; A time capsule of a Miata.
11.46; Total.

Soju

That's a nice miata

ErwinFenyvesi23

what are your plans for this Mia ? Drift or daily ? Are you gonna do an engine swap ?

JF1

Thanks, Soju.

I don't think I'll be drifting it. I think a bit of restoration is in order. On another note I haven't mentioned the fact that, it in fact, runs pretty much perfectly, though I had to change the fluids and test for it being seized. Though I don't think the seals and other rubber parts will last long at all.

Added 1 minute later:

That's why it hasn't really left the garage yet.

Added 1 hour 28 minutes later:

I've now moved moved the other two cars back into the garage.

ErwinFenyvesi23

Nice rides my dude ! :pimping:

JF1

Thanks.

Added 3 minutes later:

At the rate I buy junk cars for 100-200, by the end of the year there'll be 13 more cars.

Added 10 minutes later:

I've just realized I have, after selling computer parts, enough room to do more work on computers to earn more money. So I took on a job, and came out with 40£V.

JF1

So, I saw a car on Gumtree for sale. And well you can guess what happened next. And at the amount of £V, how bad it is.

(This is based on something I saw in real life, £60 Fiat Punto, with missing everything, other than it's two doors and a hood. It was with an engine, painted in turquoise, and ran apparently. On steel wheels, and with rotted tyres. But in SLRR there aren't any Puntos of that generation, so I'm using a VW Golf Mk2 with rust and more parts missing, on spares, with a ruined engine).

So here it is. 50£V gets you this, a dented, rusted broken, non-running-ish, empty car.

It's rubbish, and was going to be scrap, but I got it.

A good question is what to do with it?

Maybe a full show car style rebuild, maybe a Roadkill style sketchy swap, or maybe just restore it, with modern components.

Added 3 minutes later:

Finances;
51.46; From the prior.
-50.00; A scrap Golf.
1.46; Total, well this is a low point.

Snowyy

Stance on a budget
(Cut springs, wiiiide steel and camber like haggard garage did here )

JF1

Of how much, considering the questionable purchase (also I forgot to note the IRL car for sale sold for £40).

Snowyy

what exactly does the car need to get running? Interior and exterior wise and also mechanically

JF1

It needs a;
Gauge cluster.
Rims that are safe.
Suspension that isn't rusted to pieces.
An engine rebuild.
Disposal of rust.
A trunk.
A front fascia.

It can run with;
A small rebuild of the engine, and some rims.

Not safely. But have you seen the rest of the cars I use.

Snowyy

Gimme a sec...
...or a minute..
...or maybe an hour...
... who know's?

JF1

To do what?

Added 7 minutes later:

Finances
1.46; The aftermath.
-1.45; Can of cleaning fluid.
0.01; Total...

Wait, found an extra 10£V in my wallet. For a second there, we were at a real low point.

+10.00; Wallet Spares.
10.01; Total. Few...

Snowyy

The research

JF1

If you're wondering what the purpose of the cleaning fluid is, have you seen the cars?

Anyway, the civic, is as it was, but with a cleaned interior, as is the Altezza. The Golf lacks one, but the seat was thrown out onto the floor, then cleaned thoroughly, and kept out, as the floor pan was cleaned to reveal...

Not that much rust, sort of. Patches of metal, welded in badly, are there, and are rotting. But if they weren't, then it would just be an empty gap.

Added 16 minutes later:

Also, much research says, this isn't the stock colour. So what did this car previously do?

I'll let others fill that in.

MrTomush

No one want Punto because it shit car.
