should I continue to invest money in the SpecV or should I upgrade to a more expensive but faster stock car? The SpecV has alot of miles on it but it will be paid off soon. My wife wants an Evo or a Supra. I only have bolt ons n the spec.
keep the specv
ditch the specv for a 93-98 supra
ditch the specv for an evo

No payment = TONS O MONEY to mod with. There are LOTS of options for the Spec bro. Sr20 swap, build/boost the QR, you name it. I make enuff to drive a lot more expensive shit than I have... but I also have the title to everything in my yard and can mod freely... no payment is a Godsend bro... seriously. Something to consider.

car payment= u have to pay it,
nothing beats the freedom of haveing money to mod, but not having to spend that money if u dont want to.
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
it has 120,000+ miles on it, will it be able to handle a supercharger?
Spec V is not the ride to SC bro. Well I said that wrong, the QR25 is not the ENGINE to SC. You want to boost (turbo) it or go N/A. A good place to start = www.specplace.com and www.b15sentra.netOriginally Posted by bdydrpddualy

Im already a member of b15 but i got bored with it, all they do is talk serious buisness about cars and if there is an off topic discussion a noob better stay away. It was my primary forum though until i found IA
You will find most Nissan specific forums to be SERIOUS. You have to be when most of your platforms do not have the aftermarket support that Hondas have. I had NO choice but to go big on my Spec it seemed. I say keep it and then you are payment free.

Im down for the serious talk but I like the off topic shit too, I wanted to boost the car but Im just worried about the milage being too high and blowin my motor as soon as I dyno the freshly boosted beast.
Ditch the spec V and get a surpa!!! I know I would have bought one instead of my Spec V!!!

shes a big fan of both she seemed to like the looks a little more once she felt the power. I like the all around package of the evo, performance and styling.
dude, get an evo 8, fuck the 9, save money and get a better looking car IMO
yeah i like the 8s over the 9s too, if i do the evo route it will definately be an 8
Heres some math I learned in high school there killer:Originally Posted by bdydrpddualy
civic hatch weighing 2300 + I/H/E/Kpro K20 = :idb:Stomp that evo's ass and save money.
See you at the gas station, ill pay for your gas since you are now broke trying to pay off that evo.
but i would still look all gay cause id be driving around in a civic
keep this shit on topic, a civic wasnt an option
The man makes the car not vise versa, so im thinking if you wanna look straight in a car you need to mod yourself first.Originally Posted by bdydrpddualy

Keep the Spec V, once Paid Off, if you want get a new ride if its within your budget.. if its not in your budget then don't.
I say, If you have a year left on the Spec V, keep it , pay it off.. then buy a new one... The Spec V can be a daily beater..
If you have/make the money to do it .. do it..
The way I see it :
If you make good money.. Don't be skureeed to spend.. aslong as these are straight :
rent/morg
Bills
Health insurance
Retirement/401k
Nice Cushing in your savings
Credit card Bills - Low
Then you good to enjoy your money...
and thats my outlook.
Hey you stay on topic dammit, we are talking about the your future here.
So far it looks like most are saying to stick with the specv and Im pretty sure thats the direction Im gonna go, I dont have much done to it so I can still get alot out of it but the question is stil out there on whether or not the motor with 120,000+ miles on it can handle boost.
On a serious note I know how much he makes cuz I work with him, I just got this account to check out the forum and to bust his balls. I think he should ditch the Spec V and get something else, high ass mileage. BTW that "its still a honda" statement was pretty harsh, im not a big fan of the ricer side of hondas reputation.

Like I said, If he only has like a year left or so to pay it of, keep the Spec V and then once paid of, buy something else.
the car has been well maintained, my dad put 110,000 of those miles on it cause he drove it when I first left for the army and hes like, old and shit, so the car is still in great shape.
