Bored today, so I figured I would share some about me....a lot of the vehicles I have owned, in case anyone is also bored, or just curious! I think every vehicle I have owned has some kind of "story" to go with it
My first car was a 1993 Geo Prizm that I taught myself to drive stick on. I couldnt find any pictures of it.
My second car was a brand new 2008 Lancer. I wound up putting a turbo on it, blowing the motor, putting the turbo on again, then taking it off and trading it for a 2007 Nissan Xterra! It was actually one of the first ever turbo'd 2008+ Lancers in the country at the time. I couldnt find any pictures of the xterra, but it was a 6 speed 2wd ( ) model that I loved!
Then, I got hooked on drifting and bought my first Nissan 240sx, a 1989. after a bunch of work to the car and practice, I was finally getting better at drifting. It had a Nissan SR20DET engine in it, which I do miss.
Then for a short time I had a 1999 Silverado 1500 after selling the Xterra, which I didnt have pics of. Then I upgraded to my current truck, 2004.5 LLY Duramax truck! I think ill wind up never selling this truck, and will probably run it until either it dies or I die, whichever happens first. Currently no camper top anymore...
Then I smashed up my first 240sx pretty good in a wall at Bowling Green. so I bought another, of course! Started out silver, then eventually wrapped it in "black holographic", and it became known as the bass boat....I wonder why? I built the SR20 that was in it after mis-shifting and getting a nasty rod knock....then that engine only went downhill from there unfortunately.
Around the "end" of that SR20 motor, I bouht my first LS to swap into it. so I took the SR20 out of the drift car and put it into this 1993 Nissan Hardbody truck....that was a fun truck! until the engine started knocking again.....so I took out the SR20, sold that entire setup, and put a KA24DET from a 240sx into it, then sold the whole truck. Heres a build thread: http://www.infamousnissan.com/forum/sho ... hp?t=36849
Then I traded one of my guns for a very unique project....a sand rail buggy with a Ford 2.3L turbo motor from a 1988 Thunderbird! that was a fun project. There is actually a bit of a build thread on the buggy here: https://www.thesamba.com/vw/forum/viewt ... highlight=
Then I traded the buggy for both a 1993 Miata and a 1988 Suzuki Samurai. Not much was done with the miata....fixed a few things and sold it. The samurai was an awesome little toy...I wound up taking out the old carbureted 1.3L motor and swapping in another KA24DET and hardbody transmission to it and it was SO much better! The samurai has a build thread here: https://www.pirate4x4.com/threads/88-sa ... e.2570129/
And my most current drift car, my pride and joy....1993 Nissan 240sx that was in the works for about 4 years. LS, T56, fully built pro level drift car. Then just a few weeks ago I sold it and the enclosed trailer I had ill build another drift car eventually...
