God no. I hope not.... not any time soon anyways.... lol Knowing how the Supra scene is Houston is, no sooner than your motor pops you’ll have somebody with four spares just give you one, as well as some other part that you know I want when I can’t spend any money. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

I need a Supra in my life, but I can only afford domestic boats and chick cars.
Speaking of domestic boats and chicks cars, finally listed the Firebird for sale again so I can buy a Miata. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

It would be! There's a spare engine 2JZ twin turbo for it and all the other parts to go with it, or convert it to big single or LS swap it or whatever. We don't care what you do with it, bring a trailer and 10k cash and it's your baby.

Today I turned down $5,400 cash(my asking price) for the Firebird... I had called and said I changed my mind, but they still wanted to see it since they weren't that far away. Said to call them if I change my mind. I couldn't sleep, worse than usual, and it made me physically sick. I actually had to have my brother drive me since I couldn't. So I take that as a sign I shouldn't sell it even though it aggravates me at times.

So now just upgrade your f**king suspension. The biggest issue in this instance is that it was a kid wanting to get it, it turns out it was the dad I was speaking to. At first when he said it was for his kid and when he said he was like 58 or something, I figured the kid would be like my age mid 20's and up. Nope he couldn't have been a day older than 18, a kid that managed to total a stock NA8 Miata through admittedly driving it too fast in bad weather. I'm not going to sell it to someone to total it, and probably in this instance get themselves killed. Which I had pretty much decided against selling it, but after hearing that I was like Hell no. Apparently he's been going back and forth between another Miata, 4th gen F-body, and maybe a 350Z. I have a good mind to call the dad back and say for the love of god don't buy him a V8 F-body, not unless you're ok with burying him. I still want a Miata or the like, so I dunno. Damned if I do, damned if I don't. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

That said I'm looking to replace the front shocks soon since I think like the back shocks they're in need of being replaced, they're just not to the point of blown. The front being just as old and also Monroe Sensacrap I'd like to sooner than later even though they're ok at the moment. I'm thinking will do KONI Street shocks for the front, and would like to find some used Strano springs or the like since to change the front shocks the springs have to come out anyway. That and will look into just replacing the rotors that're there since I already have a set of pads, since the LT-1 brakes are fine for street use.
Or get rid of my pesky emotions and conscious and sell it at a profit to some kid to get himself killed in it, either way. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Nope still have it because I love torturing myself and being miserable. I just can't bring myself to sell it, and especially to some kid that'll get himself killed in it. If he can't handle a NA8 Miata there's no way in Hell he can handle over twice the horsepower and three times the torque. If it were someone older or just someone I could trust not to total it then maybe I could bring myself to sell it, but even then as much as it pisses me off at times I just don't know. In a perfect world I wouldn't have to sell it to get something else.
