[QUOTE=MacHaddock;28386527]hahaha what the hell is this [img_thumb]http://i290.photobucket.com/albums/ll262/justinspiller/Vtec101.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] That appears to be a Toyota Corolla AE86 Trueno Coupé. Just like one of the rarest GT Corollas.

Too bad it's worthless now.

[QUOTE=Ca5bah;28378882]Michigan.[/QUOTE] Yeah it is really hard to find nice cars in michigan. The weather is just right that no matter what you, end up with rust.

I'm thinking about selling my car and moving up to something with a bit more worth. I love my car, but I'm getting bored and this car has attracted attention that's not all good. I originally planned to keep this car for quite a while but it seems that no matter how much you put into a s13, it's still an s13, not worth shit. I haven't really looked at 240 prices in a while so could someone who knows the pricing take a look at this and tell me how it looks?

I sold mine for 5. Put it up and see what offers you get. [editline]3rd March 2011[/editline] Oil leak from the timing cover which was assembled in the wrong order, not detrimental but makes the block look dirty, would be completely solved if you ever swap the [b]valve cover[/b] gasket

[QUOTE=Ca5bah;28398089]How many miles on it? I was trying to find a GOOD condition 240sx in Michigan about a year ago.

The chassis has maybe 240,000 miles, and the engine has about 8,000 since its build. [editline]3rd March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Blaster;28398997]I sold mine for 5.

You see the head sits over the block and on the timing cover and so the head gasket does as well. It being a Cometic headgasket, it crimped perfectly into place on everything except the timing cover (hence the leak). Like you said, it doesn't hurt anything besides the look, but easily avoided. If you ever need to replace the headgasket, you'd probably completely solve that leak.[/quote]

oh god there was a Cherokee parked like two cars away from my car at work now and now I want one even more badly :saddowns:

i found a 2.5RS [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3702776/Photo%20Dump/gc.JPG[/img_thumb] mazdaspeed 3 [img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3702776/Photo%20Dump/speed3.JPG[/img_thumb]

I like the Black Mesa sticker.

can one of you scooby guys tell me what this is? its RHD and was driven by a hot chick [img]http://i696.photobucket.com/albums/vv327/Blacker_ninja/IMG_1537.jpg?1299204826[/img]

looks like a car to me

If I could see down the hoodscoop, I could tell right away what it was. It's most likely a 2.5rs, now that I think of it more. The regular Impreza didn't have a sunroof option, and adding 22b replica parts to an imported WRX is just stupid.

Also, it has 4-pot brakes. [editline]4th March 2011[/editline] It's not a 22b because those were only wide-body coupes, but it could be an authentic WRX. Here's a wallpaper I found. Notice it has the same wheels, four-pot brakes and everything else besides the bumper. [img_thumb]http://www.mycarwallpapers.com/images/1/1998-subaru-impreza-wrx-sti-4887.jpg[/img_thumb]

I hate driving lessons. They're fucking stressful. I hope it eventually becomes more enjoyable as I become more comfortable but right now it's horrible and scary.

My parents are gonna buy another car. Budget is maximum $33000. They want a medium-sized SUV which is slightly bigger than a CR-V or something. They need automatic transmission. They are looking at the Mitsubishi Pajero right now. [sp]I suck at cars[/sp]
