Oh, it turned out to have rust and cracked dash. That's ok, I'm thinking about finding...an import meet... If it's worth its salt there should be at least one example of each car I'm looking at, try and get an overall feel for each car all at once.
Also, I hate kids... Found a 240SX, but the interior is stripped and gone and to top it off there's a battery hooked up where the rear seat used to be and it's not even tied down... I just don't even know anymore. This post has been edited by Box: Jun 6, 2014 - 3:33 PM -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

If I wanted to make a track car it wouldn't bother me so much, but the fact I want a daily driver it just won't work out.
Samboo made me miss my Celica by painting his a nice purple, the audacity I swear. You know, the Celica would look great in midnight purple pearl and then doing the roof, 5GC mirrors, and tag bezel in black pearl. That and black out the lights with tint, and get some projectors. BEAMS or 1MZ swap it to complete it. DAMN YOU SAMBOO!!!!!! I blame my eye for detail and vision. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I'll be honest, if I found a nice black GT I'd have to heavily consider it. I'm familiar with the car by now and know what to do and not what to do. Of course then everyone would call me crazy, self included, for turning around and buying the car I just sold but just in a different colour.

ME TOO. It was the only thing I really just despised about mine. That and the slowness, but I came to live with that for the most part after some time.

Maybe.
I'm still trying to figure it all out. I like too many things, I should be more biased.QUOTE (MisterRay @ Jun 6, 2014 - 6:35 PM) i know... wrong forum... but not worth opening a thread for. i need to change my brakes soon... are my rear ones drum brakes? i drive a ST UK spec. Yep, unless it was converted. AT200 has rear drums, then the ST202/3/4/5 have all wheel discs. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

Asketh and thou shall receiveth: http://www.6gc.net/howto/convert_rear_drums_to_discs
I never had a problem with mine. As long as they're properly setup it really doesn't pose an issue. Have to remember some 70% of the braking is done by the front, it's why even most newer cars that're on the light side will still have drums on the rear.
