Crappy Pics of my Crappy Car :)

Well some of you might know me, i had an 02 SE Auto and sold it for bills. Then got a 93 SC400, and sold it for lack of space. Here i am back with a 2000 GXE 5-Speed. Car was/is in pretty bad shape, well bodywise. Front right hit, bent fender cracked headlight and scratches all over. Also P1130, 1320 and 0505 codes. So its a project in the works.

Currently:





Basically only things ive gotten so far are AE headlights, full leather interior, and thats about it. I've installed the backseats but have to get someone to give me a hand wiring up the front seats (car is a basic gxe with power nothing)

yeah man i miss that car so much. Gotta get this one up and running good.
Today the car wouldnt start, power just shut off. I jiggled the terminal and the power stayed on. But the car idles so bad like its about to shut off. I gotta get that iacv and swirl control valves and get that ignition coil fixed. Pisses me off, makes me wanna burn this car!

As of 7/10/08 No real updates yet. Still got the door waiting to be put on and gotta order the fender.... and wheels... and a drop.... and tints....

Did change the IACV, MAF, Coils and Plugs tho.... I think i may also be needing a new clutch soon as well.
Being a 5spd noob FTL!

Why Do I have two radios?



Yeah, some *** tried to carve "Maxima" in the bumper.
