Gimme honest opinion please....just by looking at this pic, do you think the car is nice? IMO, the car itself is nice, but the hood and the bundo'd bumper....

[mrmephistopheles]

First impression is that it's a pile of crap.

Who knows, it could be a great car with a crappy looking Silvia face.

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

...Dont forget the sunken battleship wheels.:down:

hahaha...forgot bout the rims

[koukimonster139]

dumpster spec trash wagon


yuck

[jakal]

anyone know who owns this car??? imma go check it out this weekend

[TAMTANIUM]

My first impression was "WOW!"

That person sure don't know how to put together a car. But with better wheels, full aero, and a paint job the car will come to life.

I don't think you should buy that car. It's probably wasn't well taken care of.

[jakal]

yeah that's what i wanna do with it....the owner told me he just got a recent SOHC to DOHC swap.

[TAMTANIUM]

Make sure you step on the gas pedal! Check to make sure everything was done correctly. Bring some friends to help you check it out.

[tknbkthrsdy4anfg]

Bring someone who knows about 240's, cause its quite obvious u dont.

[jakal]

eh i've done my research...i'm just not noob enuf to go around buying stuff :) i'm just ganna check it out to see if it's running straight...updates this weekend

[silverarrow27]

The car doesn't look too bad even with the bondo on the bumper. That comes with all fiberglass body kits. Check it out and make sure you do abuse it to make sure it does run well.

[Brian]

exact phrase that came into my mind when the picture loaded.

"fuckin' ugly"

[240trainee]

Looks like it has potential

but look carefully, bring someone who knows 240's with you like already said

I am still de-ghettoing a Corolla that looked "a little rough, but a solid car" that I told my brother to buy in November

[LB.Motoring]

wow,

i didnt know we had a Rate this chassis thread.

in this case you get a 0

damn that shits halfass ugly

[C. Senor]

my first impression is its damn it looks pretty good...from the doors back...get at least a stock sil bumper and a quick paint job and she be looking okay

[jakal]

wow,

isn't my car :P ...imma go check the car out...it looks like potential...:2f2f:

[Chernobyl]

Well, at least its a coupe. And at least it's black..

[benefitx]

change the front bumper and a different hood and your gold

[markyboi]

but it and sell me the bumper..lol

[jakal]

what i was planning to do if it ran straight was give paint job, and get either a carbon fiber hood, or do something w/ the hood ^^...

[FaLKoN240]

That car looks decent, you need to post more info than just a picture.

Mileage, YEAR, mods etc.

[projectRDM]

The outside looks like raw anus.

If the rest of the car is clean and there's no damage, missing parts, or non operational shit I'd say it might can be saved. But please don't pay a dime over $2000 for it. Coupe or not, it's in need of a lot of love.

[Ronald_Mcdonald]

This is a local Tampa car, and I have seen it in person, and it really doesn't look as bad as the pictures make it look.

[swift_style]

that bumper has got to go though

[chmercer]

"man i better move over a lane, that piece of shit prob has no insurance"

[sblack13]

am i the only one getting a red x??

[jakal]

eh, someone is buying my car for 3k, so i'm not going to see this car anymore...Close thread please.

it is a car from tampa, now it's currently in Jacksonville i think....IMO, still looks nice, just needs a paint job and other minor stuff

[ixfxi]

hello shoppers, can i help you with your cheap shit?

[swift_style]

"man i better move over a lane, that piece of shit prob has no insurance"

lol... just too funny!!!

[s14dude]

its got potential to look great.


just needs some work. looks like a typical project car.

[JewGal]

There are a lot of snakes in Florida. My friend and I took a couple of road trips to investigate coupes that looked 10X better than the car you posted. They were all full of bondo and had frame damage, despite their clean titles.

That pic you posted screams fishy.

P.S.
My motto for buying a S13 is; always look for the electrical tape trim. If it's missing, that's the 1st sign that it might be a repaint and, if it's a repaint, what are they trying to hide?

Buyer beware.

[sr20det4mys13]

it has potential thats for sure just clean it up, and for the guys that dissed u im sure by the time your done there gunna be like, nice car dude.. thumbs up bro.. blah blah blah.. latah

[aznpoopy]

nobody dissed him.
its not his car. he's looking to buy it.

the car looks like ass. if it runs as good as it looks you should run the other way. don't buy someone else's headache.

[eerrrrr]

eeewwwwwwww. with 2-4k it will look better.

[Ca_laurier]

its half way there

damn

yeap nobody dissed me :P....eh i decided not to buy it...lol...i always thought it looked good, but i personally dont like the front bumper....but yeah, still has potential....

[s14sx]

that car looks like s13 coupe....


.....

[jakal]

eh, imma check it out this weekend, (tomorrow) updates on how the car runs and looks TOMORROW NIGHT! or maybe monday :P

[SimpleSexy180]

haha make up your mind.

[jakal]

naw it was soley if some dude wanted to buy my car or not...and aparently that dude didn't, so imma go check this car out

[jakal]

**UPDATE**

Eh, the car runs fine...exterior is good except the hood. He put a OEM silvia bumper on, so it looks a lot better...there is ONE SMALL dent on the passenger fender...Another noticable one on top left driver door...the hood = crap...NO silvia Grill...Tien springs....16" rims w/ NEW tires (rims are the ones in the pics...looks kinda ew to me...)...runs on ELECTRICAL FAN, and has the switch for it on dash...There's ONE crack from the dude drilling into the dash to put the switch for the fan....INTERIOR is CLEAN and NICE except for driver floor, which only has a bit of "yuck" (5 CM diameter, left to right, and up to down)...has NO back seats atm, but he's installing them right now...Spedometer says 234k, and he doesnt know if that's how much is on the motor right now or not...Engine is pretty clean...No rust...drives STRONG and smoothe for a 89 coupe. Open Diff, but HAD wielded Diff.

*oh yeah, it also has a crappy looking Stock exhaust, but very quiet*

Overall grade: B

everything is good but the front end...kinda worried about the engine tho....

[bardabe]

first impression, *sigh* another silvia face.
2nd thought LOL another drifter kid
3rd thing, eh who knows he might me cool.
4th thought, go type it.

[Edgar]

fail 123456789

[steve shadows]

yeah that's what i wanna do with it....the owner told me he just got a recent SOHC to DOHC swap.


just leave it looking exactly like that, maybe put a stock bumper on the front and then drop a vq56 with 100 shot.

and splash some poop on it or maybe some house paint, and put 14s on it

Sex. :drool:

[sr20det4mys13]

what is it with everyone expecting to get the perfect 240, the car is like 18 years old.. there called projects for a reason.. latah

[s13_gearhead]

Yeah, that car looks like a roach that someone beat the shit out of and let go to hell. It makes me sad to see 240's looking like that.

On the other hand, maybe it's a diehard love for 240's in general, with not too much time and money that car could be looking sharp again. I'd be up for it =) How much is dude asking for it?

[jakal]

he wanna trade me for my s14 i had up for sale here a while back

[ladiesman8527]

WTF? your S14 better be a big pile of shit if your trading it for a shitty looking S13. i'd never trade a straight S14 for a POS looking S13. post pics of your S14 for comparison of value purposes.

[jakal]

hahahaha, i wouldnt wanna trade my car for it either :P. i just wanted to check it out b/c i was n Jax, FL for the ZOO w/ my GF....btw, some monkeys got tazered down there for being bad...lol...funnie stuff....anywaise, here's link to my CLOSED car thread since i bump'd too much :P

http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=134484&highlight=pearl+white+1995+s14

imo, the s13 is nice, but i wouldnt wanna trade my car for it...someone is actually buying my car this FRI....so yeah......

**IF anyone knows of ppl selling s13's in GA, SC, FL, or even TN, hit me up :P***

his car runs fine and strong, just the exterior is nasty.

[jakal]

he put a sr in it now

[TheSquidd]

Holy shit it goes 243,000 KMH???!?

You could do the Kessel run in under 12 parsecs with that kind of speed.

Whats the odometer say?
