i like my car, got it for 2200, grandma owned, clean title, no problems at all right now,its auto but a 5spd swap is nothing
and there was a guy on craiglslist selling a green se zenki complete shell, clean title, very clean outside, for 1000, and had everything, front end, interior, i thought that was a good deal

spooled240 · 10-16-2010, 01:10 PM

yea id rather have a clean auto than a shady m/t car

xsidewayzx · 10-16-2010, 03:33 PM

meh... I would rather drive a 5 speed.

xsidewayzx · 10-16-2010, 03:38 PM

Oops, double post sorry. Stupid phone!

GReddySTi05 · 10-16-2010, 03:40 PM

well yeah the driving is fun, but autos are cleaner and you can always do a 5spd swap

xsidewayzx · 10-16-2010, 03:45 PM

My S13 was auto before.

GReddySTi05 · 10-16-2010, 03:52 PM

someday mine will be a 5spd, still drives so gotta worry about other things for now, like some new wheels and tires

xsidewayzx · 10-16-2010, 06:01 PM

Question to all who want to answer. Should I sell my S13? I was thinking of keeping it but I might be moving soon and I don't know where yet until I get my orders.

upsdude · 10-16-2010, 06:30 PM

where would you keep/store it?

xsidewayzx · 10-16-2010, 06:42 PM

As of right now I don't know where I'm going to be stationed next. I am for sure buying an S14 some time soon. I also have a Nissan Altima as a DD. We are plnning on moving ourselves if we get stationed somewhere else, and our plan was to trailer my S13 behind the uhaul or whatever we are going to use. If I do get a S14, I don't know if I'm going to keep the S13 due to moving and all that crap. If I do store my S13 it will be in Corona at my mom's place.

speedracer5 · 10-16-2010, 07:07 PM

Maybe, it all will be decided once the 14 parks next to my 13. Then it'll be crunch time. LOL

Another question, if a car has a salvage title, how much does that decrease the value of the car? Any takers for 500?

speedracer5 · 10-16-2010, 08:50 PM

well insurance places hate salvage titles and the value of the car does go down put it this way a new vette 60,000 salvage title vette that has been repaired 40,000 that is same milage and color and interior

speedracer5 · 10-16-2010, 08:51 PM

o and if u decided on letting ur s13 go let me know

upsdude · 10-16-2010, 11:26 PM

salvage titles are sketchy because sometimes it's a simple case of the insurance deciding the costs aren't worth fixing the car, so they total it. but you can also score a good deal on a car. if you're really interested in a salvaged car bring someone with you to take a look at it with you. sometimes you want the car so bad you end up overlooking important details.

GReddySTi05 · 10-17-2010, 01:53 AM

xsidewayzx you should get that s14, saw you looking at it in the for sale thread lol, that is a nice looking 14

xsidewayzx · 10-17-2010, 11:42 AM

Which 14, the black or the green? Both from cali.

that green kouki with 521's

thanks upsdude but im kinda looking for a s14 tranny, dont want to drill any holes for a sensor, easy way to remember my name GReddy STi as in subaru and 05 as in 2005 subaru lol

man that guy got me to get that sr20 transmission, the gears are a little different by not much, kinda getting some wheels just because i need tires so trying to save up for that, driving down the hill when it rains isnt safe on bad tires and brakes, safety first

That green one is nice but It has a salvaged title. I'm waiting for a response from the owner on the price. We will see. It's nice tho.

Greddy, the guy is asking 7500 what do u think?

90white240 · 10-17-2010, 11:54 AM

I want an s14 too!!! FUGE yea my sig pic works now!!!

upsdude · 10-17-2010, 12:06 PM

xsidewayzx · 10-17-2010, 01:46 PM

^^I agree S14's do suck...

90white240 · 10-17-2010, 03:51 PM

yeah that's how i have my fans wired up...works great you just have to move the a/c canister back a half an inch or so if you're switching to alum. radiator due to it being thicker. i'd also recommend insulating the wiring for extra protection.

xsidewayzx · 10-17-2010, 06:29 PM

If ur talking to me...I tapped it in my fuse box.^^^

90white240 · 10-17-2010, 08:21 PM

O LOL Didnt see that one coming. Is your fan on all the time?

xsidewayzx · 10-17-2010, 08:37 PM

It turns on when u turn the key right before u start the car

xsidewayzx · 10-17-2010, 08:57 PM

I seriously thought you were talking to me. My middle name is Jason and some call me that instead of first name.:P

90white240 · 10-17-2010, 10:09 PM

^^^ Sorry about that dude. lol Never mind lol Since I took all of mt ac components out there was a plug left which plugged into the ac fans, My engine fan just plugged right into the plug that was left. I hope it works well....:/
