I about shit myself, but idk why- I expected it to surface one more time before finally disappearing for good in the hands of an over excited under experienced 16yr old with daddy's money and ending up wrapped around a tree or telephone pole.....
IDK what I'm gonna do yet...
the funny thing is the guy says the title is clear and is only a theft recovery.......i thought since you got a payout on it, it was totaled and it would have a rebuilt title....................If it is clear, it might be a good deal....
Joe if I bought the car I wouldn't give half a shit what kinda title it had. lol
Its a salvaged title but I'm assuming its been inspected by the state and has been deemed road legal (idk how I mean it can't pass emissions to save its life with a chipped ecu dumping fuel and no egr or cat). As far as a good deal goes- I have 85% of my receipts for aftermarket and mods totaling $5700. Plus the price of the car itself (I paid $3300 for it in 07 but its still worth about that today) and minor bodywork performed (another $500). In other words to replicate this car would cost roughly $9-10k.
Is it Honda Tuning worthy? no. But its a super clean, decently quick, extremely well built car that a person could daily and track.
I'm just worried its gonna get riced out, fucked up, totaled, or all of the above.
Someone just watched Pulp Fiction, I'm guessing?Quote:

O.. If i had my L's back.. I would drive over and give you a hand....
I think it's dead. Not sure if I want to replace what's screwed or just replace the motor. It jumped timing real bad.
^ best bet is to probly just swap the motor..... Or you can take it out.. Bring the motor to me for a rebuild... = )
I'm hoping that I can piece together an LS swap for cheap or just swap out the motor for another d16 and sell the car.
ok cool.. I would just swap out that for another if your going to just sell it
Have you checked the compression?
Compression is decent across the board. Only a couple of cylinders had a little leak down during the comp test so I am thinking bent valves are present. May just try to replace the valves and the belt and pulleys and see how that does before I replace the entire motor. Just gotta get ahold of another Z6 head to rape the valves from.
Got bored and took some pics using my stiky pod:

Hatch is looking good bro.
Cool stuff Joe
You said the leak down was slightly off. How slightly? If you have good compression I doubt you have bent valves. Maybe slightly bent but still a long shot.Quote:

And I wouldn't drive a BMW if it was given to me....no offense to yours or anything.

Anyone want Red Dead Redemption? I bought it today for my 360 and I didn't like it. Everyone says its great but i dont want to play it anymore. I played for an hour tops and the only fun part was when i raped some kid online. Online seems good but i dont want it anymore. $60 gets it for 360 come pick up in PTC or I can bring it Friday. Call/text 770-871-0889.
Kinda fucked up that you raped some kid online......did you at least have the common courtesy to yell "SURPRISE!" right before insertion?
Lol
if its a used game, as in its open, you atleast need some kind of discount.
True...even $50 would be alright.Quote:
