/\ Matt sold her for a $500 profit went to getting a new boost controller for the Silvia.

Looks like I am keeping the Silvia. I can not justify taking the loss on it that the low ballers on the base here want to offer....

So I am keeping her. For the time being at least. To make myself feel better about ther whole thing I am gettin HIDs for the Silvia

http://www.mod-express.com/ pretty good price and they are recommended on a few 240SX boards

Ooooh sounds like a perfect opportunity for one of those Tomei SR20 longblocks that'll handle 500hp.

Ok NOW you've found a car that I could agree with. Granted I'd personally prefer a v4/5 STi coupe, but that wagon is hot also. Considering it has about 16,000km, that's a steal. Let us know what you do!
