Car Shopping


I'm finally getting money from the insurance so now its time to go car shopping.

I'm thinking about getting a Celica alltrac like this one

Its turbo, all wheel drive has a 3sgte and is a rare car. I've always liked them too.

What do you guys think?

I dont think theres enough of them to worry about colors and I'm pretty sure they only come in 3 colors; white, black and red.

I Agree with the all-trac. Also mr2s are still viable, purchasing one would still leave you with money left over.

Congrats on the new wheels Jon.

El Presidente, are these wheels for sale, they will not work for the FC but may work for a friend's 240Z road race car.

Jamin has some pictures. I'll post some tonight though.

Info on the car:

The car is awesome. Its really fun to drive.
Its in good shape overall. The body is clean and paint is good. Its a little purple though. Oh well.
Its an 89 non turbo automatic............. with a jdm turbo motor and 5sp swap. The wiring isnt too great. I think they kept the original harness and just added the turbo harness. Theres plugs everywhere not clipped into anything. The compression is good and about everything in the car works minus the a/c. I fixed a few things and it runs way better now. Well the first thing I did to the car didnt involve fixing anything. I actually broke it first. I was trying to read the fault codes. You're supposed to short a wire with a green clip on the end thats in the engine bay in order to retrieve the codes. I found a wire with a clip on the end of it and shorted it. However, that was the wrong wire. That wire was hooked in to the ignitor so you could hook a timing light to it. Needless to say that fried the ignitor. However, I did learn that one of the trailing coils was bad in the process of diagnosing the problem. A ride in the del sol(with new exhaust) down to Japanese and European Auto Salvage and 2 new coil packs fixed the problem.

I dont know what the plans are for the new car. I may leave the motor alone for a little while and build a nice suspension setup first. Well at least until I learn more about rotaries. I also have a big radiator and a big fan in the mail.

BTW, Wiring hacked cars FTL. One of the worst things I've ever had to fix from a previous owner. I wish you the best of luck.
