Keep It or Leave It : The Thought Of Change
Well recently i checked out a thread of praise for our cars and i must say i agree, i feel our cars have to be some of the nicest looking cars on the road to date HOWEVER
mine was bought old and isn't getting any younger, my original intent was to start off with a base and keep it for a year or so and eventually graduate to vr-4 status but seeing as i was having trouble finding a low priced vr-4 with lower miles (yah i must be dreaming) i've stumbled off to other cars.
As of now i have several bookmarked cars on autotrader.com which would include
-3 eclipse gsx's
-6 eclipse gst's
-5 nissan 300zxtt's
and a sr20det 365 hp nissan 240sx
All within my price range ($5,000-$12,000)
All of these cars have miles in the 40,000 to 70,000 range which, considering i have 130,000 on mine, is low to me.
For a while i was collecting parts for a tt conversion and currently have a pair of 9b's and the rest of the major parts involved to do the swap but i can't help being concerned of the mileage and sometimes conclude that i should sell4$4,000 to $5,000, sell the parts for a twin turbo conversion for about $700 and add up my cash for a new (used) car when the sales are completed.... while other times i tell myself i should keep going for the tt conversion and try to upgrade the car as much as possible but i've come to a crossroads with this.
I'm searching mainly for opinions on the situation, what you think i should do, or what i shouldn't.
Also are there any other cars that i may have left out in the same class as the cars i listed above that i looked up on autotrader? I would hate to rule anything out (besides old 5.0 mustangs, they are quick but not my style). As you can tell, im mainly looking for a car with a turbo or twin turbo set up.
