Well I think it's time to move to another car. I'm trying to get rid of both this car and my S13 still.

The cars condition is immaculate. It definitely turns heads. Car has been sitting for most of the winter, driven about 100 miles from November to about June this year. All motorwork was just performed at Showdown Motorsports (showdownmotorsports.com) and has only about 2k miles on it, just finally getting broken in. S15 front end was just finished a few weeks ago.

Exterior:
S15 Front End Conversion
S14.5 Widebody front fenders +20mm
S14.5 Hippo Sleek Front Bumper
S14.5 OEM Carbon Fiber Hood
Black Housing S15 headlights
VIS Sideskirts
VIS Rear Bumper
25% Charcoal Tint
Black Chrome Silvia Badging

There's definitely a lot of stuff I've forgotten I'm sure. The car is definitely a great example of what these cars can look like. If you tossed on a expensive set of coilovers and a sick set of JDM wheels this car could be a magazine cover car. Car still needs to be fine tuned to squeeze out the power it is capable of, I haven't had the chance to have someone do that yet. Depending on how long I have the car I may do it.

I'm looking to get 17k (i'll include everything) obo for this immaculate car that has it all. I am a little negotiable.

Plan on parting it at all?

rcviper
09-22-2004, 07:09 AM
I'm so sick of having to come back to my threads because this thing doesn't email me anymore. Only thing I'd probably part on the car would be the Recaros for some S14 seats, that's all I can think about that would be easy to remove. But I'm not going to ship these things, too much of a hassle.

Dude i so wish this car was registared in california. I would be at ur store with cash inhand... dam i hate california laws...

But your totally right, suspension modification is really all it needs to make the cover or even get sponsered. I am sure with all u got done sponsers wouldnt be to hard for suspension from some company. Anyways.. Clean ride.

You aren't allowed to buy a car from out of state or something? Or are you just thinking the car would never pass smog? Throw a stock cat on and lean the shit outta the car and she'd probably pass ;)

Oh well, thanks for the compliments. :naughtyd:

Some pics I just took a few minutes ago because the sunset put a pretty cool orangish glow to the paint.

Price is now 15,600 with 370cc injectors, SR20 maf, and stock seats. W/O the computer of course.

Hmmm, if i scrapped my project i think i would have the money to buy it. But then id have to sell everything and who knows how long that would take. Im about 20 minutes from you viper, you took my friend jay for a ride he's in the process of getting rid of your evo. Said the car was nice, and the front bumper looked phat!

rcviper
09-30-2004, 10:14 AM
Thanks man, yeah, how's he doing? Still got the evo for sale huh, I just wish he wouldn't have parted it out :/ Or I would have wanted it. Anyways keep me posted, I get a lot of interest but lots of people have to sell off their cars to get it.

Forgot to mention the tranny was also rebuilt at the engine build. Tranny was filled with Royal Purple fluids and shifts like silk.

Just put a new tire on today, the fronts are pretty worn and one ended up dying on me, so the car now has 3 excellent shape tires and 1 that needs replaced.

Hey ass where's my $175 you still owe me?

rcviper
10-12-2004, 10:48 PM
Why don't you ask Chase about the $1000 non-refundable deposit he gave me to hold my other car for 2.5 MONTHS to soon beg and cry to get it back. Well I should say his father, because he was too much of a little girl to call me and talk to me about it. Never spoke to the 16 year old kid once, dad did the paying and the talking. :ghey I gave him back 850 of a non-refundable deposit, I say I did you more than a little favor kid.

Let me guess you never even saw this car but it is a "POS" too. Even when others have driven in this car and have already stated in this thread how nice of a car it is.

what car are you getting??? btw what kind of car computer are u talking about??? i dont see it on the pictures.... all i saw was the screen....

rcviper
10-15-2004, 09:51 PM
Getting an 04 GTO, trading hp for torque and especially a warranty.
The screen is touch screen and controls the computer that is in the back. Looks like this when it boots up and you touch the screen for whatever you need.

rcviper
10-17-2004, 10:31 PM
No rust at all on this car, it lived in the south for 95% of its life.

I can get any engine shots you'd like to see, what else are you looking for wooha?

CHASE86
10-18-2004, 01:46 PM
Ok ass how about the 500 times I have called you and left messages and e-mails. Also there must be some mystery reason that you can't sell either of your cars but i know its b/c they are both POS and over priced and thrown together.

rcviper
10-18-2004, 08:18 PM
Yeah there must be some mystery reason. The S14 is sold and the S13 is pending a deposit. If you want to argue your case (which you got way more than you deserved in the first place) do it somewhere else. The s13 WOULD have been sold a LONG ass time ago because I had cash buyers but waited out on your gay ass because it took you 2.5 months to actually scrounge some cash together.

You make me laugh. I am sorry that I took that long but, I like do take my time when Im buying something and that is a good thing. Your the kind of person who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing. Just admit that you did take $175 of my money and apologize. In your exact words you said on this forum that you would hold the car as long as I needed if I gave you some cash and I did. I drove 4 hours to see the car and didn't like it and drove 4 hours back and waited about 2 1/2 weeks to a month to get my 7/8 refund back. My father got involved b/c he was extremely pissed and felt he should take care of the situtation b/c he is a very caring and considerate person.

Somebody sounds a little mad. I think with some nice decently offsetted wheels, this car would be one of the hottest ever.

I wanted to make a post and bring this back from the dead. I feel I got screwed pretty bad by this guy and feel like sharing my story. I should have done more research back then but the car is great now. I see in an old thread you talk about how you spray painted the bumper but when I bought this car and called complaining that the paint peeled off you told me it had been painted by a very good shop. Not to mention that the engine was completely blown up. The bearings were installed backwards and the tuning I paid for was a bunch of crap and the radio I paid for never showed up. Anyways I'll let that go and just say if anyone buys something from this guy again make sure you know what you are buying. The car has come a long way since I rebuilt the engine to find most of the stuff you claimed were done to it were not really there. Anyways now its runs great and was dyno'd at 407hp last year and at 411 a few days ago. Here is a few pictures of it now. You can probably see the front bumper is still not painted from your crappy rattle can paint job peeling off. I could go on all day about how much stuff was not on the car that was listed and how many things were wrong with it. But after a lot of work it runs awesome now and ran a new best of [email protected] this weekend.

If you buy from this guy just make sure you double check everything before you buy it. The crank was not knife edged, the turbo was blown up, there was so much wrong with it I can't beleive it made it home. I love the car now but its cost me a lot to get it to where it is and it was far from what it was advertised as when I bought it. Now i feel its worth what I paid for it but it wasn't at the time I paid for it. Sorry for bringing up an old thread but I see he's on here again and thought everyone should know what my dealing with him was like.

No problem, seemed like a nice enough guy but just sold me a car missing a lot of stuff and didn't follow through on getting a radio installed for me and charged me a couple hundered dollars for tuning.

Sorry I don't frequent this site and so I thought when I saw him on here again I would pull up the thread from when I bought it.

Its all in the past and the car is much better now than it was so I'm happy but just wanted to warn others if you buy know what your buying.
