QUOTE (Box @ Dec 2, 2014 - 1:00 AM) I was going to say, didn't he know the 4L60E breaks under stock power?  Well, if you go by the sum of the parts you could do it for less yourself. LS motors aren't that expensive and neither is a Supra with a blown 7M.Probably an eBay turbo and other parts since no names are being dropped. Well I know where you can get a '98 Celica with a Beams for only $10.5k. ....and I bet you he still has it. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.

Found a '96 hardtop M6 Trans Am, it would have to be fire engine red though... Being the hardtop I suppose I can break my rule, plus at least it can pull it off. Sent a picture yesterday, waiting on some more before making the trip out to see it. Fingers crossed.

I hope he got mates rates It was a VERY nice car... but looking at the build it looks like he was asking for every dollar he spent back. In any case, happy for him that he got it sold so quickly and lets hope the new owner joins the forums

it was really clean looking. I'm still amazed somebody bought it. I guess 6gens are getting rare enough you can get that out of it when its super clean.

Plenty of nice rust free ones down here.
In fact someone was selling what I thought was my car for half of what I sold mine for.

You must have some Cheese stacked away if you can afford to sit around for months with no car.

For now I'm able to catch rides, though starting sometime next year my amount of driving will go up considerably. Which has had me somewhat reconsidering my choice in car, but the only thing notably better would mean going back to FWD or another Miata. Meh, only another $300 or so a year over a Miata in fuel. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Will be receiving a brand new harness back from Tweak'd! So excite!
Apparently they did a revised harness after my initial purchase about a year back and have since cleaned it up. So instead of patching up my old one, they're just gonna send back a brand new one for me with the same specs as my old one! -------------------- -Alex {](O_o)[}

Going to look at a '79 Firebird tomorrow. Already has a 350 swap and looks to be in good shape from pics, and they're asking a fair price. So why not... 10 mpg instead of 30 mpg, close enough.

Today I started a new job that I got for making a little money on the weekend that won't interfere with my school schedule. Valet Parking at a nice hotel downtown. All night long parking all these new cars getting to check out all kinds of different models.
Everything has these funny keys, or the remote fob, or the remote fob that you push in to the dash like a key. Parking sensors and reverse cameras that show your projected path based on how the wheel is turned. Freakn' sweet. And the parking garage is so tight really have to be careful parking these big assed SUVs. Just the first night I was in some Lexus, Benz, Range Rover, Toyota, Chevy, Ford, BMW, Acura, but the only one I even liked as much as I like my Celica was this Audi S6, it was freakn sweet. -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.
