that is awesomely awesome.

When my cashflow evens out, I'm buying a RHD front clip, gonna rebuild the engine, do the RHD swap, drop in a fresh engine with a few goodies, up the boost and get it painted, then just enjoy the ride for a bit.
I'm gonna get my hands on another shell to cut apart and design my cage and suspension off of. That way I have a fun car to drive in the mean time.
This stock NA Z and old corolla are KILLING me. lol.

Cool...of course we would need to decide on a cool destination...maybe a road trip to a baseball or football game or something.

I know all about the $$ issue...the flow for me is kinda even, so i build things slow.

Turbo Mat - if you get it where you want it that would be a really good example.

I myself have driven my s13, only ridden in a SR powered s13, never a s14, never a z32...i use to bust on my friend and his 85' turbo z31 cuz i could run away and hide from him in my s13 with bolt ons...lol. It was alittle pokie, but still a fun to drive car.

Yeah i bought her wrecked two weeks ago. guy angerly back into a light pole at the hard rock after losing alot of money. decent bit of damage, but i bought it for $1,000 with perfect engine tranny interior and almost perfect from the rear up. its the one in my signature. it only has 130k miles, so its honestly the car i was exactly looking for.

That would actually be really cool.
We're planning a nice little road trip next year to go to the ZNationals.
Its a whole weekend event. Track day Friday. Car show Saturday. Drag races Sunday.
If everything goes the way I want it to over the next several months, we were wanting to make a big road trip out of it. Take a few days to get there (there is just outside of atlanta, at Z1 motorsports) do the show, maybe hit the track, then take several days to get back, maybe a side trip to the dragon, hit some nice roads up there. Check out some other cool spots.
I'll have at least 2 Z's to take up there. My brother might have another one. Last year, there were several 240's there too. Not part of the show, but friends of Z owners. So that could make for a bad ass trip. Do like a wednesday to wednesday type of thing.
If I get my cash game going before Marshal sells his GTR, I'll have a GTR and my 2+2 to take. You're bad ass supercharged s13. I'm sure we can get a few other people to roll out there too. Or at least tag along for a couple of days of the trip. Ought to make for a bad ass week.

yeah, so keep in touch. even if you're not on the forums, there's facebook (240phil@gmail.com - feel free to add me, just put a message in so I know who you are. Royce, you too) and my e-mail - 240phil@gmail.com. I'd give you my number, but I break my phone often enough that it changes a lot. lol. I get both e-mail and facebook on my phone anyway so that's the best way to get a hold of me.
Keep in touch.
I'll be planning the trip at least to some kind of scale for next year no matter what, so even if it is just a over night, sleep in the car, kind of trip, its gonna happen.
