Well guys.. the time has come for me to replace the 300.. time are a changing and gas and insurance costs are rising, so it's time to get something that either doesn't guzzle as much gas... or has more power than this one and takes about the same amount of gas.
i've been talking to a local import company lately, seeing if they're able to find a good quality 200ZR to import from japan... the guy i've been talking to (christian from importconcern.com) said that for the condition of car i'm looking for would end up costing around 5 grand after importation fees and all that... so 5 grand for a minty 200zr is pretty freakin sweet, the only problem is that it'll probably take quite a bit of time to get into canada.. depending on some things it could take 2 months, it could take as much as 8... now as sweet as 215 turbocharged hp stock sounds, and the fact that it will probably be the only one in western canada is pretty tempting, i'm not sure if i can wait for that long...
which brings me to my next option. i've been doing quite a bit of research on those rear mounted turbo's (as much as i can anyway) and i think i'd like to try making that setup work on a nice light fuel efficient 4 banger, which i've been trying to decide what kind of car i'm going to go with. there's a few options... try and find a decent 240sx with a good engine in it, or go with something i'm a little more familiar with, such as an integra... now for the integra i know Exactly what i need in order to make it work, whereas the 240 i'd have no freaking clue.. i've even got an uber leet mspaint blueprint drawn up for the turbo system on the integra... it's pretty similar to the design that STS uses, so hopefully i'm not infringing on any patents or anything...
depending on what the guy from import concern says, hopefully i'll have this all decided by the end of next week at the latest.. holy crap this turned into a long post... my bad
