well an intresting offer was made to me the other day that Im pondering.... a friend of a friend is intrested in buying my car. he threw out an offer that while decent wasnt enough to make me jump. then he threw a twist in the offer. I could pull what I wanted from the car (except like the SR duh) to make the car meet his offer. now. this means I would have a head start on the next project PLUS the cash to do what I want to it. and bring it back or actually FARTHER than the current project.. I'd also be armed with two years of knowledge i DIDNT have when starting this thing and could fix the mistakes I made on a clean slate... the idea is tempting. too tempting.. I cant decide... i see a ton of 95s for sale at a price I could work with but all are auto... I have/would have everything for a 5 speed swap (since I'd be putting another SR in) thats more of an aggrivation though... bought i would if the price was right on it i guess.. grr cnt decide.
discuss amongst yourselves

that would leave me with payments an crap I really dont want. besides if i was gonna get something that required payments it'd be a G35 coupe with the 6 speed :)

do it. I would die for the chance to start over, ahead of the game, with the additional knowledge I have now.

I know right. thats the thing.. but I also thought about doing an S13 too... saw changster had a couple for sale with swaps already... still would leave some money for some decent upgrades :) bahh I'm pretty sure I'll do it. the only ones telling me know are people that think that im obsessed with my car and I'd miss it.. im like... its a car... I'd be so much happier doing it over anyway. silly females..
Oni... I was thinking of the new infiniti...that m45 or whatever.. my bad :)

I say go for it. New projects are SOOOOO fun, especially when you have the knowledge, like from one car to anohter, which is your exact case steeles. I say try and find an S13 coupe, and do EXACTLY what you want with it. Thats what I'm doing now, hhehehehehe...:D

my BIGGEST problem with switching to an S13 for the next one is that some of the parts I'd want to pull would do me no good then. otherwise I'd be on it like a hobo on a ham sandwhich. although I could probably work something out with jason or another S14 owner to get the money to get the appropriate S13 parts... hmmm

You SURE could. I have two S13s though. Currently looking for another hatch for the daily grind too. Projects are fun. :D
