karmagedon Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 well I've Had the car for over a year now, probably time to do a thread on it. Havn't done anything to it except for change the timing belt It's in real mint original trim, only known mod to it is the aftermarket tape player with matching 6" speakers in tray. Photo time: Trademe photo's of when I got it: and photo's I took today after I did a super clean on it: future plans are to transplant either a 4g37 or 4g63 DOHC in there. I saw a lancer a while back with a silvia subframe init, so that got me thinking of the idea of also changing the suspension for that of an evo or something?? but who knows, that will most likely be a few years down the track.

karmagedon Posted April 25, 2009 Author Share Posted April 25, 2009 so future plans will be : save for the next ten weeks ( this is roughly until the next tech holidays ), during that time it is on trademe for a ridiculous amount of money. If it sells I will be stoked with profit, if it doesn't sell I will be stoked to keep the car. After that time, It will be 2L awsomeness time.

karmagedon Posted May 15, 2009 Author Share Posted May 15, 2009 here are some shots There is some structural damage to the car. I had a look at the parts car, and it is in worse condition that this. So... I will go around the panel beaters on monday and get a quote to fix. Unfortuanatly I don't think it will cost anywhere less than 2 or 3k. So will see what the future of the car will be.

karmagedon Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 Had a professional Panel repair guy look at the car today. There is NO structural damage. It's all cosmetic. However. I will not be fixing the car. If any of you guys want to buy both cars for 800 o.n.o then you have first dibs. Otherwise will be going on Tardme. In other news, I will be picking this up tomorrow : Regards Dave. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karmagedon Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 So long story short, After I sold the MX, I bought a vr4 Legnum. That car was a blast to drive around, so comfortable and generally awesome. Then someone decided they needed it more than me and kindly removed the car from my possession one evening. Time for a new car it was. After trawling trademe like one does when searching for a new car, I finally found my dream car. Drove to Auckland one fine Sunday to pick up me new vehicle. it looked something a little like this : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
