Thanks guys I think I did a good thing. when I talked to hem, he said, that there was two others who were interested in the car, so I told hem that I was a enthusiast and when we talked about technical side of the car he were impressed to hear all things I know about 3Geez.
I didnt had all money to give, told hem that I need to talk to my bank about a small loan. When bank denied me the money I got really sad and told the guy that he just got to sell it to those others who were interested in it. Next day he sends me an SMS where he says, "How much do you have right now?" I had like half of the total price and then he said.. "Well, I rather sell it to an enthusiast than someone who will drive wheels of her and dump it" So we agreed for half now and other half later in the summer.. So I win :D

Anyhow, yes the car is SWEET. hope it drives and sounds as mint as it looks. My future plans are simple for now. Going to tune engine in tree stages.
Firs of all. something simple that dont cost to much, like B20a ECU, B20a Gold Top Cam Axles, CAI, header and 2.5" exhaust. B16 mani, F22 cam gears as far as engine goes.
Suspension, 4G rear sway bar, KYB's with B&G low.springs. Maybe 17" wheels if a friend will give those to me. They are damaged. But its not that important tho..
Appearance, JDM corners, window tint 35%, and maybe door guards with chrome in them. and Visors.

Well that is about it

Nice find Tom. Glad to see something like this going to someone that will really appreciate her.

What does this mean for your other 3G though?

...I still have everything waiting to go to you too. Look me up on AIM when you get the chance too. I wanna hear more about this car.

...oh and it's nice to see the wheel on the proper side of the car on this one too!

Hi Mark, yes, remember I told you in a PM about it? Well, looks like all goes to plan. As for my other car, dont know, I think I will have it as my model car, I will mood things like Big brake kit, engine mounts, tower bars etc. You got the picture :D The good part of my other 3Gee is that its driveble and good in structure. no rust. So its good as it is. Maybe I will finish it someday.. or just use it as I mentioned above.

Yes about those parts.. Looks like I will be needing new front rotors for B20. Its an 87 but I believe the rotors are bigger that usual A20a3/4 86-87. So I buy those and we tak about shipping then :D

At the moment I dont have to much to tell about that new car, but I will get it on friday and drive it home 400mils. Bought ticket today so I fly tomorrow :D Gona take as many picks as possible underway :)

so you're shipping that to CT right? So you can drive it around and be one of the other non-USDM 3G's in North America when you get here right?

weeell Mark.. dont kno.. :P I'd like it but there is to much to struggle with to pool this off.

i dunno guys, are we all hearing excuses here? C'mon Tom, pack your shit, and get those 3G's in a container headed on a one-way to the US. There's so much fabrication work lined up for the 3G's and we would all benefit from a domestic fabricator.

Thank you all for a good support, apparently my girlfriend dont see it that way but yea..
Aaron, I like fixed head lights setup, going to do that evil eye look and corners. it looks good then.. and I can agree with you on pop up lights, they look nice when they are down but not so good when they are up. out of proportion if you ask me, but its just me tho..

indeed why arent you on MSN as much man??

Tomisimo
05-08-2009, 04:04 PM
because my PC is f*cked up.. need to einstall OS so.. but I ge to i soon :D

Updates.. Got car today, feels good, but there is small issues. the steering wheel shakes when I brake and I think that engine needs to be overhault, as its pulls not as good as my 12V.
But its a good start. Itgot some potensial, I'll get pics in daylight tomorrow :D

maybe a garage that done the cambelt on it made it one tooth out of something check that 1st.
When you want those corners ill let you have them for 120NZD shipped

Tomisimo
05-09-2009, 12:24 PM
maybe youre right Aaron, Because I hear valve tick at the top of combustion, betven 2000-3000rpm. This engine needs a good tuneup, the last maintainence was done a while ago and the guy who had it now didnt care about anything, he had it for a year.
Found that Air filter is felthy and found some rust in fil pipe, so I think that the fuel filter is derty and spark plugs are eaten by now.. This is why it pulls weaker.
Engine swets abit of oil from valve cover also.
I'm now at my friends house, so no pics before I get home as I didnt remembered to take USB cable with me.

The most impresive thing hat everything elektric works on it. no bugs and allaround clean car.
All that I can address as a issue is, tuneup, brakes, rust in rear quorter panels, buble rust around moonroof, small buble rust here ant there and rusted fuel pipe.
But there is nothing that I cant fix on my own.

Aaron, I'll get to you with those corners, and folding mirrors and you can start looking for side moldings with chrome in them. and mirrirs with chrome. After I get tuneup, I'll be able to buy some stuff from ya ;)
