So, I had planned on buying a 3sgte next summer after I finished the 350z project and had some time to do all the proper research. Trying to decide which gen 3s I wanted, my power goals, what tranny, and all that.... and then a guy an hour or so from me posted a gen 2 clip for sale.
So here it is. Gen 2 st185 rhd clip. Drove an hour or so to pick it up..... and yes i know it looks like a mess right now, trying to move it with a cherry picker sucked into that little bitty ass trailer. But here's a few pics:     and yes, i took a lot of shi* off to get the chains to work and get it in the trailer This post has been edited by dustin15brown: Jul 25, 2010 - 7:37 PM --------------------  |

we noticed the rest of the busted windshield was flapping in the wind, so we thought on our feet and used a broom and some good old fashioned electrical tape
 broom will be sold for $400..... due to JDM-ness rubbing off on it -------------------- |

good luck and nice find,
about the broom, that should be vacuum wrapped and placed on ebay just for kicks to see how many bids it gets! -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

You will do fine =) -------------------- THIS IS WHERE WE HOLD THEM!

Although I need to get the harness to tweak so he can rig it all up for me Also thinking of picking up a ct 20-b to help things run a little more efficiently.... -------------------- |
