Thanks guys. I can't wait to get my hands on this bad boy. I've already looked over the vendor's thread and clicked around. Parts are CHEAP! I'm honestly amazed at how inexpensive some of this stuff is.
All things considered I might just go ahead and do a complete tear down and rebuild. @Cavey: Def going to check those threads and build up as much knowledge as I can. I try to read first, ask questions after I get the facts. No one like double posted threads on the same questions lol. But your right, the car is unlikely to have much rust, if any because it sat garaged the whole time and was parked in the summer of 89 probably lol. I am actually unsure of the exact year and model because it's buried alive under a pile of junk. However the owner said that she wants to see it completed and running. @Zenki: Sure will. It'll probably be entitled "Destroy, Build, Destroy" A wise person said to me: "This car will descimate all in it's path...after you dump $15,000...or more in overnighted parts....from Japan." After a complete clean out of the car's motor, it'll be time to get the stereo up to date. That'll mean new speakers, radio, and the like. I work in a Customs shop, so I have no problem with fiberglass and bondo. A few weeks of that stuff and I'll have a sound stage like no other. Granted the car will be a bit underpowered in it's early stages. The first year will be the toughest, afterwards it'll be up to me to swap something wild into it. Mmmmm say an F20C or 1JZ depending on money and ease. The real thing I want out of this car is for it to be a daily driver but also a drift machine. So that'll mean upgraded everything while maintaining it's fun loving nature. Let's see what happens. |
