SHADY280 Posted June 22, 2010 Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 to all those who have given input to my project thanks. today someone asked how much? i said $3000, he countered with $2700, i said sold. should be gone thursday. but dont worry, i still have 2 s130's and already have a line on a 1995 altima with ka24de for $1500. didnt expect tot sell it, but since i only put 2000 into it, its gone. i really didnt need it anyway, was more of a dd toy. money is money, and i still get a nissan i can turbo and mess with Quote Link to comment

SHADY280 Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 oh yeah he has the info to come here. he phoned and confirmed the sale for thursday, already passed it with his wife and has cash in hand. i would never sell my silver 280zx, not ever. but the racecar project and truck, yup. i tried to sell him my racecar, but no go. lol also for sure confirmed the altima. i see a possible turbo in its future. i also gave him my card if he needs work done on it. i charge 40/hr at my shop, he also has a 510 too!!!

SHADY280 Posted June 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 well its gone along with all its related parts and bits. the guy says he will join, but we shall see. ill prolly get to see it from time to time as he may need help doing some work. the new altima is a nice car, pretty quick too. that ka is a stout power plant, 150hp in a 2800lb chassis.

CharlieBucket Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Sorry about the trauck, but hey money in your pocket! 1st gen altimas are alot of fun. you got the 5-speed right? i always wanted to turbo one, but never have. yet Quote Link to comment
SHADY280 Posted June 27, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 27, 2010 no automatic, but it shifts high and hard like it should. i thought about turbo at first, but its quick enough that all im gonna do is a coil, tb, intake and exhaust. maybe some other extras. lower it, the rims are uber light mags. maybe some good headlights and tint the rear windows. handles really nice. didnt think it was gonna be as nimble as it is, but i am thuroly impressed with it.

FoxyRoadster Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 a 620 is for sale down here for 500 profit time? :cool: Quote Link to comment
SHADY280 Posted June 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 there was a guy at the local nissan the freaked when i told him i sold it. the whole dealership actually was kinda sad. they loved that truck. if i could build one the same, the one guy would buy it. he ended up buying a d21, but really wanted a 620. up here a 620 can catch 1000 in poorish shape with rust. a full done 521 went for 4000 on cl a while ago.

FoxyRoadster Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/cto/1757413800.html lol a little far from you though, I thought about buying it myself Quote Link to comment
lynchfourtwenty Posted June 29, 2010 Report Share Posted June 29, 2010 dont buy an altima.. they are garbage.. KA's SUCK! buy a Infiniti G20! then turbo that!! Quote Link to comment
SHADY280 Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 i like it, that ka is pretty nice actually. the g20 is really not common here so finding one would cost extra. the ka movement is gaining strength to the sr due to engine displacement and torque. 600 hp is not uncommon anymore with pretty good reliability. i prolly wont turbo it, just too much work, then i need high octane. that takes away from the cheap running costs. ill do some breathing upgrades and ignition and try to get better mileage for cruising and power when i tread on it.
