i like that offset stripe, i had a taco bell toy car that looked exactly like that paint scheme once

oooohhh and kosei's, that isn't the selling point is it?

brgracer 01-06-2008 08:48 PM

I work near there and could probably drop by. Just let me know.

Braineack 01-06-2008 08:50 PM

Corbeau racing seats and four point harnesses.

plus a/c


and no replacement for displacement!

Pros:
  • R Package appearance items(at least)
  • vinyl stripes can be removed, seem to be vinyl as they are very difficult to get straight over spoiler and bumper)
  • bigger brakes
  • bigger stronger diff, Torsen if it is an R, open if it isn't.

Cons:
  • you turbo won't transfer over without mods
  • same for COPs
  • same for MS wiring harness
  • gotta transfer your real oil pressure gauge over
  • red hardtop, black car

if it is indeed an R package, nothing to point to it not being(manual mirrors, no mention of power steering, or power windows), how do you feel about manual steering?

Braineack 01-06-2008 09:20 PM

i want manual steering, no abs and with a/c.

basically I'll have a car ill only have to slap a turbo on, the rest I can keep as is, and part the one i wrecked.

i should be able to swap manifolds and still use my downpipe and exhaust....the rest is nearly the same, just a tweak at the TB.


if i get another 1.6L, i have to swap my bigger brakes, engine, diff, over.

Why can't I have some good deals like that here? No, instead I just have a bunch of fucktard who wants 12 000 for their ride..... And for trash too (look the 2nd) :vash::vash::vash::crx::crx::crx:

im almost as lazy as you. anything to prevent having to swap all my parts over.

hustler 01-06-2008 10:04 PM

It would be a hell of a drive, but I'll swing by and check it out for you if you're interested. You can crash on the couch too. I owe you for all the MS help.

what all could you reuse from the red one? just your exhaust? turbo/lines?

Braineack 01-07-2008 01:25 AM

id get a new manifold and reuse everything else. the downpipe may need tweaking, but should be ok. guess id need a new feed line, and maybe a new clutch depending on what he put in.

otherwise, id really only have to throw the roll bar in and eventually change the shock/springs.


but again, beats swapping my brakes & lines, my engine, my suspension, my rollbar, etc etc etc.


it would be basically starting fresh and figuring out a new turbo setup.



chances are it will be sold before i finally make the move :bang:

mazda/nissan 01-07-2008 01:46 AM

if you have to put your roll bar in then what are his harnesses attached to?

paul 01-14-2008 10:39 AM

so?

what happened with the car?

Braineack 01-14-2008 10:47 AM

chriscar on here bought it.

im looking at a local 93LE and a 90 with 83k that looks mint with hardtop.
