I like flares and all, but that's a bit much. -
Whoa... that looks absolutely disgusting. Diamond in the rough, i guess. -
Mmmm fat flares, black hood, and no bumper. Just the way I like 'em -
I dig the flares -
Here in so-cal, there's a lot of guys with lifted 2wd pickups with fiberglass fenders, no bed floor, and a full set of spares mounted on the roll bars (2wds are cheaper to buy and insure, but they still wanna have fun out in the desert. Or at least look like they wanna have fun out in the desert.) These guys think they're friggin Michael Schumacher weaving in traffic and screaming around corners. I keep waiting for one to tip over so I can stop my car right next to it, get out, point at the driver and laugh. Next to that would be homeboys driving lowered cut-spring civics with no hubcaps and loud-arse mufflers.

Whatever it originally was, it probably isn't anymore, drivetrain-wise. If there's a V8 swap on it they probably put on a matching automatic transmission and transfer case, like a TH-700-R4 or something. Still. It's one more perfectly good Z body wasted. I hope he sold the original drivetrain to someone who could appreciate it. -
Chain-link steering wheel? Skull shift knob (with blinking red eyes)? A mural of Jesus or the Virgin Mary on the hood? -
A friend of mine tells me that there's a trend of lifted civics and integras and such going around where she lives in the San Fransisco bay area.... Is this the future of sport compacts? *shudder* -
The RB motors pretty much fall right in, right? How much would one cost? A single-turbo RB25 would be cool, too, if it was significantly cheaper. -
Nice color, love the individual throttle bodies. Super-clean Would almost make me feel guilty about thrashing around in it. -
Is it rolling on 13" daytons, too? And is there a mural of Jesus or the Virgin Mary on the hood?
-
Hehe looks like the wires I have running around the engine bay in my truck for my tach At least I tried to tuck them up against the firewall with duct tape and zip ties. -
The chop is neat. -
Hey look it's Jesus! -
Umm... Ok it had the hardcore NASCAR theme going on and all, but the little mural thing on the spoiler needs to go. Nothing against homosexuals, but I DO have a problem when you go around forking up perfectly good cars. Especially when they aren't dime-a-dozen civics and the like. And are those Camaro tail lights? -
Wow. Nice keychain. -
Lots of blood and sweat, even more money, and a whole lot of tears (from the enthusiasts), but not a whole lot of taste... This gets a 10 on the WTF scale. -
Wow. Is there a little red light in the front that swooshes back and forth, too? I wonder what all the switches do... If anything at all. -
The body's in such great condition, too. Such a shame. And they had to extend the rocker panels and fill the fenders up to cover the frame rails. Totally screws up the proportioning of the body (never mind the lift...) Unique is cool, and all, but still...
-
Nice color, love the flares, love dark rims and carbon hoods. I would have done the airdam in blue, also, though, and maybe gone sans bumper. I love the fender-mounted mirrors, too. When I finally get around to building a Z, this would be the way I'd do it. -
Azenis are pretty cheap, and about the closest you can get to street-legal racing slicks I hear they're kinda scary in the rain, though.

I don't mind a bit of cosmetic damage on the interior. The truck I'm driving right now is pretty messed up Here in Southern California, rust isn't a huge problem, either, unless the car has spent a lot of time near the beach. I don't mind the lack of creature comforts, either. My truck rides like a horse, and the radio is broken, and the AC barely works. Plus I drive it way harder than a truck was ever meant to be driven (which is why I'm looking for a good, cheap sports car). What is a good year to look for? Are they all pretty much the same except for the engine displacements?

I've always loved old-school imports, and I've seen a few Z's for sale around here that are really cheap. Thing is, I want to know about possible maintainance woes I'll have. I'm not planning on swapping in a V8 or anything, so the engine has to be fairly solid. Basically, what sort of things should I look for when I go shopping for these? Do they have limited-slip differentials?
