I just can't get over the looks of the prelude..

That's why I like the celica. It's as fast, but also looks cool.

[RevoltTrain]

price range and what options (2 door 4 door coupe convertible ect.)

5500 Max, I'm open to 2 doors, 4 doors, convertibles, mini trucks and some wagons. Main things are good looking, sporty, good aftermarket support, and reliable.

I really like the looks, good experience with them personally. Roommate as you guys may have seen earlier is looking at a 4th gen (Not my style but not bad either)

I can't get over the looks of them. Not a fan at all. But that's just personal preference.

I'm buying a 1990 240sx (http://eastnc.craigslist.org/cto/5390545394.html) with a bad engine. I want to put a 2jz in it, but will use it as a daily. I really want to know if i can keep AC and Heat. 

[techswede]

Better than an Elco with only primer by the looks of it. That 350 thats new in it is worth more than the elco unfortunatly.

It's a good starting point though

S13 Hatch. I approve.

[RevoltTrain]

This makes me want to get something that can pull off white walls.  :wub:

Love white walls to death

[pagani123]

And they don't look good on MiniTrucks.  :unsure:

i am finally getting to you guys

Doesn't the 2JZ usually have AC on there already? My little brother has a 200SX S13 rocking an SR20DET at the moment.

Sadly no

[Andrew_C]

I'd imagine they have a compressor on the engine assy but it needs to be plumed into the ac system of the car that's being built, and if the blower box the condensor or whatever gets really cold, I can't remember what its called, if that box will be too big and get in the way of the new engine. With enough fiddling you can get anything to work, but usually its a huge pain with swaps. Really it just needs to be plumbed and that usually too much work to get to work for most people, but can be done.

 

I'd assume his 240 is coming with AirCon, once again I'm pretty sure most (if not all) did. Then it's simply a case of running some custom lines from the expansion tank top the pump, and from the pump to the condenser. The rest of the circuit can remain as factory (so long as it's not in the way).

 

Edit: Found a pic of the system in the service manual for the 200SX (same as 240 I think)..

A "generic" bike (KSR Moto TR 125) that costs 3050€ new

(Why can't I have one )

[RevoltTrain]

@RevoltTrain no bimmas?

I'd like to be able to find an E30 or E36, wouldn't feel right being an automatic though.

[JoaoPRSousa]

I really wanna get a grom, then put some knobbies on it.

Yes please.

No manuals there in 'Murica? (I know there are jk)

Are they "uncommon" where you live?

[JoaoPRSousa]

I couldn't get a manual as my only car. Only car I'll have available to me.

I just couldn't do it personally. Maybe if I had two or more cars. But elsewise I can't

[RevoltTrain]

IDK about him but I don't want my daily to have a clutch. Get stuck in traffic and just want to get out and walk.

I know some friends that do it, but I just can't do it personally

[RevoltTrain]

Really want to get a Audi A6 4.2 Quattro. But the gas mileage of a V8 would kill me

[RevoltTrain]

My grandads tahoe gets 18. Its a 5.3 chevy

The thing is I'll be driving all the time, being a teen means doing dumb teen stuff at night going on random trips to the beach, or out to the country side, and a V8 would kill that real quick
