Hell no you can't beat $900. Your a honorable man for pointing out facts instead of criticizing my car, I don't normally see that on forums these days.

thats what i like about 86garage as compaired to houston240sx. people on here are civilized and know how to communicate as adults. its not as big as i would like but its still great. people will give you constructive criticism in a way that is not degrading. ensted of saying you have no angle you suck. its more like hey you could try this or this to get more angle.

you may rag on my new ride, but it feels so good to drive after driving a hachi with solid ball joints in the rear and lowered with agx's set to stiff and no a/c. i've been driving it around for a few days and its great. it sucks when you think about gas prices and only using 90 octane or higher. it also sucks knowing you can't kick the cluctch or hit the gas a little harder and getting her sideways out of the turn coming under the over pass. but hey, i thank God for blessing me with a car to get me to work and back with no problems, and with a few creature comferts.

i haven't updated this in so long here is a catch up for everyone.

it came with some really messed up seats, and some crappy seat covers in the trunk. this is to give you an idea of how bad the seats where and how ugly the seat cover was.
Image

the guy i got it from was this fat dirty guy from new york who own's a pizza joint. this is an idea of how dirty the car was from spilling of drinks and so on. this is from the center switch for the windows.
Image

i looked for seats before at a junk yard and they wanted $15o per front seat due to the motors. my friend found a place that gave me everything for $5o.
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

the car used to have wood trim on the dash that started to peel due to pool chemicals the guy left/spilt in the car then tried to screw it down with a bunch of little screws insted of peeling it off. i got rid of it.
Image

my friend decided to throw his G35 rims on to see what it looked like.
Image
Image

you don't need polish to make a turd shine. :lol:

since all of that was done. the rims were taken off and my friend/roommate slapped it up against a curb back in march or so in the rain. its sat until today when we tried to replace the lower control arm only to find out we didn't have the right one. so we pounded out the old one enough to drive it home.

an idea of how the car looked when i picked it up.

Image
the armrest used to be all black. thats after cleaning the hell out of it.
Image
the blue tint down in the cracks of the seat is from the pool chem they guy had in the car.
Image
Image

thats why it was so cheap.
