Quite reliable? Are you talking about the 3000? You must have some good crack down there as they have more issues with their trannies than the SVX every could! I still don't understand why you'd sell one perfectly nice car to buy another. BTW I may have an ebony wing in the next couple of days so if you do find one w/o one it can be yours.

Either way, enough of this mitsu talk, it doesn't look like it'll happen as Collin accepted my offer. It looks like I'll be picking up his 125K Polo Green '95! -Chike P.S. With some of the mods I plan on doing, an OBDI car was the only option as there's no secondary O2 sensor to worry about. It will also allow me to get the stage 2v5 immediately!

300tt
I just got a line on a 300ZX-TT. Like new(i.e. less then 10K miles), I'd estimate over 8G's in aftermarket. (turbo's, intake, exhaust up-pipe, down pipe, ect). Owned by a doctor and newer seen rain.
I'll cost you though, he's asking $25,000 from what I understand. It's somewhere in Cape May county. |

Either way, I'm very happy with Collin's car. I ideally wanted a '95 L in Laguna Blue or Polo Green. Because of the offer I gave him, I won't have 8K to drop into the car immediately (closer to 5K) but his car already comes with a stebro, konis, and a major service at 100K miles (timming belt, knock sensors, seals, etc). All I'd need to focus on would be the 5spd swap, cams, and stage 2v5. -Chike

you just like fixing them up, or what? issues with your '96?

-Chike P.S. Why did you end up selling your '97? You just wanted something different perhaps...even though you've since admitted to wanting to own another someday.

Collin has owned the car since 58K miles and has done all the maintenance on the car. I'm not worried about picking up his 125-130K car as I know it'll easily go another 100K-150K no problem. The same is true for my car as I'm anal about maintenance and keeping it in top running condition. -Chike

Mrs. Shark's WRX looks as good (or better) as the day it rolled out of the showroom. i can't understand how she hasn't got the front end all pock-marked up with paint chips. i think i have more on the LGT. is the '06 WRX still in your future after you wear out your next SVX with trips to Home Depot after the new house?

Btw, my wife and I aren't buying a new house, just re-financing our current one we bought this past May. In just 6 months, the market value on our home has gone up 15K. -Chike
