I'm surprised that you haven't owned a S2000 in the past.

The S13 was featured on a swap article in 2000 or 2001 maybe? In a black and white Super Street article. It was like a genral step by step. It was pretty much stock on the outside except the exhaust. It was a real sleeper. If I can find the article at home I'll get it scanned. I actually had a stock S14 as well and was amassing parts for the RB25DET I had but that project didn't make it either. I couldn't afford to have that project and another car at the same time so had to give it up. Would have been cool though.

Funny thing is I was looking at AP2 S2k's but decided on the Z route instead.

Thanks for all the nice comments guys!

nice collection of cars, I'm betting that you will like your Nismo 370z for awhile...I hope to run into you if I drive near the area!

Man, I'm so jealous. What the hell do you do for a living to have the opportunity to own and hook up all these beautiful cars???

CrownR426 · 02-19-2010, 01:43 PM

You had an amazing car collection!
Damn and you never riced them, great job!

I certainly don't make high roller money lol. The cars up to the Supra I did like everyone else over time and saving money. The Supra is probably the only one I really miss but I sold it at a hot time. After Fast and the Furious the car became more mainstream and people began to see the potential of those cars. Since I worked in the Industry the employee discount and hook-ups on parts didn't hurt either

. I sold that car for a pretty good profit and was able to keep some of that money rolling on the subsequent cars to buy them and fix them up some.

I bought a 6-speed manual, Liquid Titanium 2010 one week ago. (Haven't posted pics yet; been very busy, had a recent death in the family, and so on.)

BTW, I live in San Luis Obispo area and have family in Palos Verdes, San Pedro, and in the Anaheim area. Perhaps we can get together some time when I'm down there visiting.

Good luck with the car.

I miss the Supra. It had ballz, looked hot and was fun to drive with the targa top off.

Compared to my last car (M3) the Z feels really good and I'm really liking it. I'm afraid though that my fun money I was able to roll from car to car finally died when I bought this car. Instead of buying some cool upgrades like wheels ect I used to to get the payment where I wanted it by putting it as a down. However I don't feel as much in a hurry since to me the NISMO package is pretty satifying. Don't get me wrong, I'm still going to mod it lol but it's going to be a longer process this time. Hopefully you guys are still around to see how it turns out!

Check out the local forums. There are a few monthly meets that I linked from other sources that have had some good turn outs here:
O.C. & L.A Central Meet
O.C. G/Z Meet
I'm sure there are other meets in the Socal Forums too. I've been to most of them, maybe I'll catch you at the next one.

I happened to find the old DIY article from Super Street for my 240SX SR20 swap. It's updated on the original post. Gotta love that internet/Google. I linked the artcle and copied over a few pics

jtroun · 02-28-2010, 04:44 PM

Great cars and cant wait to see what you do to the Nismo..

G Fo12ce · 08-19-2010, 10:32 PM

Soon I'm going to start a journal thread. It's long over due. Mostly I just have exhaust and some smaller accessories but you have to start somewhere right? Keeping my promise to my wife I wouldn't go nuts on it for a while
