Well i rather buy a stock car and built it up exactly like I want it, but I must admit that 12 grand is low for all that stuff, you could probably part the car and sell for more then you paid lol.

Re: Should I Buy It ???
Buying a car with that many mods is generally a bad idea. You never know where he forgot to put a screw back on after replacing a part, or things like that, it's a big risk. Although that car sounds mint, it's a big gamble. I don't think I'd get it.

whenever you see a car like that with that many mods and its not being sold by some company that did it to the car themselves as a show piece ask yourself why is this guy selling this car for soo low after spending so much on it
and this other thing 30,000 on a SR20DET isnt that a little low cosidering most import compnay say that the engines have around 45k to 50k on em when they ship it to you the consumer... |

Re: Should I Buy It ???
id normally say to get i since the mods are worth a respectable sum of money, byut the chassis is at 180k, and thats kinda high...even for my standards

Re: Should I Buy It ???
Get some pics, I would like to see it,
on the other hand, just buying a car is half the fun, personally upgrading it is where the appreciation starts.

Re: Should I Buy It ???
ditto 2 SHO411... doin up ur car urself is not only heaps fun, though at times trying, u get a sense of pride and u get more respect. if u do most of the actual work urself can also be rewarding too. guys that build up stock cars from scratch to make awesome cars become local heroes. like in AUS, theres guys at JMS (japanese motor sport) in adelaide, which is hundreds of K's from where i live... but the guys there, especially Denso, are known around australia by jap and drift enthusiasts for the awesome cars they do... http://www.japanesemotorsport.com.au/ go to the promotional cars link across the top of the page... check out the red r33, hyper wanker blue 180sx, pink bits silvia, cefiro and black africa 180sx (they are all drift cars) and check out their other drifters 2

Re: Should I Buy It ???
Is that your ride SZ, you, lucky bastard, I would kill to have one. I saw street racing in the gumball rally tape, and you guys are riding clean. I saw guys doing doughnuts with M5s' and holdens, I saw skylines and S2000 being treated like civics here.
Either cars are cheaper over their or you guys got money to burn in Aussy. Lucky y'all. might make a trip their one day.
