Datsun Dreaming
I bet that little opel was a blast to drive. One day I'll drive the ring.
lol, thanks bro...
what i meant by that, is that a military guy is going to take his savings, and dump it all in a S13, a 14 would be a better choice IMHO, look at the last poor sap that dumped his military money in a car, it came out with black RFP1's, rainbow paint with shitty clear...
not saying anything about my car (why do people keep bringing it up?), but say he took his $$, bought a newer 350Z, spent a couple grand on some suspension and some decent tires, and he'd have a car that outpreforms most any S13, in handling, comfort, appearances, reliability, possible warranty, etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

thanks for seeing the light of my post, and not making some offhanded skyline comment, you actually saw the point i was trying to get across...
i can get you a decent R33, but I'm sure you know the rum rumors...
just make sure you shop around for S13's... there's a few gems out there to be had, i wouldn't recommend buying one off TR, hit craigslist, in some country town 4-5 hours away, you'll find something nice... hell, there's this old black guy in town who's got a MINT S13 coupe LE, OEM gold paint, brown leather (eww), but the car is retarded mint, like, WHAT THE FUCK mint... i bet i could go to that guy with $1500 and drive away, as it wont be some taxed out pile of shit on TR.
just take your time, shop around, you'll find a nice one that's a worthy foundation.

rumors, na im pretty out of touch with the goings on of tr, ive been stationed in hawaii for the last two years shit i think this is the first time ive been on tr in that long.thats the only issue hawaii is stupid on safety laws for cars, all the og guys in the scene have all put their shit away and called it quits.i was building an rb coupe before but between safety inspections and the deployment i had to sell it.mainly i just wanna do a super clean coupe sil front with the supermade aero,nice wheels/suspension and build a nasty sr. original no but i like things nice and simple.
by the way sorry for the novel its just nice to think about somethin other than afghanistan every once and a while,lol

This weekend I stripped all of the sound deadner out. It took me all day Saturday to strip all of it, but I left the firewall insulation on so that it doesn't get too hot. When I got the car I bought $60 worth of Rustoleum and painted the inside black, I mean EVERYTHING. Now that money went to waste because I painted over the sound deadner. I should have weighed the everything I took out but I was too tired by 12'oclock in the morning to do it. Also tinted the tail lights and turn signals. Anyway, here's some pics.

I hate that mobil1 high mileage bullshit. It's like syrup.
first time trying it, i know the motor has less than 75K, but i figured I'd run it for 2500 or so miles, see if it'll help flush out any minor build up. inside the VC's looked clean, with almost no caramelized oil anywhere, i'd like to keep it that way, if not clean it up a bit more.
