my240likenoother · 10-11-2001, 07:34 PM

no shit i hate thoes things

misnomer · 10-11-2001, 07:39 PM

Just another auction, the car will end up selling for round 2 grand

BlankFlip · 10-11-2001, 07:43 PM

if it doesn't, i'll take it off of him for a like $500-$1000, it could be my sr20det car <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

tanabs · 10-11-2001, 07:53 PM

Forget it.  It's automatic.

*transient* · 10-12-2001, 12:19 AM

Price is right. I say go for it. #### that's a PERFECT car to swap an engine into. It's even got the nicer front bumper <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Archangel · 10-12-2001, 12:54 AM

Ah, yes, but like tanabs said - its automatic.

Who wants a turbo charged automatic.  It takes the fun out of having a sports car.  Just my $0.02

BlueSix · 10-12-2001, 02:15 AM

When you swap an engine, you usually swap the tranny too...

HippoSleek · 10-12-2001, 06:34 AM

Add for the price of the swap for the time and parts on installing a clutch/master cylinder and all the hassles that come with swapping into a SOHC chassis.  Not what I'd pick for the swap.

my240likenoother · 10-12-2001, 09:00 AM

i have heard that auto is fatser when you turbo you lose less boost unless you r a pro at shifting
but i also like the stick over auto

BlankFlip · 10-12-2001, 09:47 AM

i'd much rather prefer a stick, but if the price is right, i'd drive an automatic n use it for a driving car, n when i got bored of it, i'd drive my 5-speed.

S13Grl · 10-12-2001, 03:41 PM

I have to agree with you guys (lol). It takes a lot longer to shift with a stick than it does to shift an auto.

zephyr · 10-12-2001, 07:11 PM

my friend has a camaro with 600+ hp and his is auto...he got some special kit so its faster than anyone doing manual shifting...I think if he spent the time and money getting 600 hp he knew which was better for racing(Im not saying more fun =D)

my240likenoother · 10-16-2001, 02:11 PM

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymot....another one best for the sr20det the trany is already shot so i dont think that ne1 will make a big offer

vancouvers14 · 10-16-2001, 04:11 PM

that one is perfect for the swap. it'll sell for less than 1K for sure.

my240likenoother · 10-16-2001, 07:23 PM

ya thats what i was thinkg. too bad i have to do it to my car first, i already got about $7300 in it already and in the spring i want the sr $5200 man where is that money tree has any1 seen that on e-bay??

vancouvers14 · 10-17-2001, 11:36 AM

i think in the next few years, i'll pick up an old crappy s13 for cheap, and just pick it apart and start over.  engine swap, empty the interior, rollcage, etc.  that would be a fun garage project.

if anyone knows of an old s13 (preferably not running) near vancouver, let me know.  this is gonna be fun

groundzero · 10-17-2001, 11:52 AM

good price, nice paint job...but I don't like the plastic rims...

my240likenoother · 10-17-2001, 08:44 PM

new rims , supention and sr20det and you have the racing car you want for cheep

IceTekGuy · 10-17-2001, 10:39 PM

that last e-bay listing was funny...

paragraph #1
"but transmission doesn't know what gear its in. Right now it just backs up. A few days ago it had all the forward gears. "

paragraph #3
"The car has four new tires and seems to run OK. "
"seems to run OK. "
"seems to run OK. "

what the ####?
lol
