Who else sold a highly tuned car to get into the EVO VIII?

Here is a link of a write up and pitcures from one of the best tuners in the country: http://www.twinturbo.net/net/viewmsg...msg_id=1480221

Here is the Auction that tells my old cars fate/ Ebay auction link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=4560100362

I have posted numerous pictures and a lot of information about my projects on this site: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/541609

Here is my new one: http://www.cardomain.com/ride/737129

I love my new but I will miss my TT Z...

His NSX is a steal for any one with 30K to spend.

Yep I sold my 91 silvia conversion to get my evo.


car started life like this for 500 bucks at junk yard



Then ended up like this after about 7grand in parts



Motor was the best part


or for a hell of a desk top


I sold the car for 11,500 cash. I owed nothing on it but time, and used to money to pick up a new 03 evo for 25,500 otd.

Man, It looks like you logged some time into that Silvia. Nice job!

The Z was one heck of a project too. I have done many things to it and I hope that my hard work at least makes it bring in $20,000.00. It is well worth it.

Nice Z nate. I too sold a TTZ a while back that was my baby (went 11.8's @ 123mph). Wish I would have kept it.

And i've always wanted to buy an older NSX and TT it. That car is nice.
