craigslist is always a good starting point, just watch out for scams.

Lemers 09-06-2012 03:04 PM

Yeah, when I went to sell my last car Craigslist was no help. All I got was lowball and trade offers.

edub370 09-06-2012 03:32 PM

depends on how quickly u wanna sell. i would try autotrader and ebay. if u want it gone asap, go to carmax

Still on the car. Now with test pipes. So it really f'ing loud. At the same time it has given the old girl more HP. I'm still working on trying to quite it down.

Took a buddy for a quick drive drive today and about put it into the ditch sideways:tup:.

tower74 09-07-2012 03:56 PM

Nope not yet....Will be soon. The tax man is still in my pocket but that will end this weekend. Then it's off to get my money back from the local tuner and off to STL to get the tune wrapped up........I hope.

JacksonZ33 09-09-2012 06:58 PM

I found mouse poop on my engine this weekend, hahaha:icon14:

edub370 09-10-2012 08:43 AM

HAHA that is hilarious

JacksonZ33 09-10-2012 10:04 AM

i suspect it to be extremely old.

finally decided to do a wire tuck, and as i got all the way down past the lower plenum i found a dozen turds laying on my intake runner.

JacksonZ33 09-11-2012 01:10 PM

I thought you were talking about your Roadster! :O

tower74 09-13-2012 07:23 PM

Well gonna call Chad tomorrow to see if he has his UpRev license. If not then I'm planning on fixing the noise issue next week and will call ET tuning in Union,Mo and see if they can get this nightmare of a build finished.

Then comes the cheap part ($4000-$5000) putting the body kit on and getting it painted.

r u still going to put the amuse kit on if u intend to sell the car as soon as u get it tuned?

sboden 09-14-2012 10:57 AM

He can't part with it. Once it is done, it has everything.

JacksonZ33 09-14-2012 01:23 PM

They released official zdayz video.... For any1 bored

https://vimeo.com/48259457

Nuki 09-14-2012 02:39 PM

I'm gonna check that out sometime over this weekend.



Question for you guys, anyone have any recommendations on where to get my tail lights smoked? I might end up going with the smoke plastidip, but was wondering if someone knew of a place that did it professionally.

edub370 09-14-2012 03:21 PM

im not sure. but, i have a can of plastidip smoke sitting around if u wanna try it

JacksonZ33 09-14-2012 04:03 PM

i used a can a vht shades, faded hella.

I put way too much time into wet sanding and buffing to make look not like spray paint, then 2 years later cant even tell its tinted at all.

Hmmmmm....no probably not. This is my baby. I've spent to much money, lost to much sleep, bleed to much and at the same time wanted to burn it to the ground to let her go. Unless someone makes me a hell of a good offer and no Ethan I'm not selling the turbo for $1500!!:tup:

edub370 09-15-2012 07:39 AM

HAHA hey a guy can dream right. honestly, after all the stuff u have done thru with this car, it would be a sin to sell it after it was done. that thing runs sooo damn well. just a tune and a couple resonaters away from being back to beast mode

True. But ppl do that. invest alot of money in a car a year later sale it:confused:

tower74 09-16-2012 08:26 AM

This would not be the first time I have done something like this. I will however be keeping this money pit of a car. I'll just have to buy a 4x4 beater for work.

JacksonZ33 09-17-2012 11:45 AM

soo yaaa not sure this is my place to invite but it sounds pretty fun....
(edit: its open invitation, told everyone to spread the word)

looks like ethan is in too. and me and my old man both got passengers/co-pilots.
