Jon........damn dude.


At LEAST.......its seen better days, and it WILL see better days...

Good luck and take care..dont do anything stupid!

 

isn't that a line from lil wayne carter 3 album???? hehehe

It will see a better day, hopefully by christmas. This is going to be my Christmas present to myself, as for being stupid, well the last time I tried to fix her up I was conservative, but now its go big or go home!!!!!

 

sucks man...

pics of the rebuild??

 

yeah i'll take lots of them. Haven't really started anything real noticeable. Just cleaned the cob webs out of the car. I think I need to fumigate it or something hehehe

 

Those pics are depressing. It is so sad how many of these projects never get done because the shop/person is a just a terrible businessman.

I think you will enjoy the SC though. Just realize it is going to cost a lot more than you ever think it will.

If you need that starter, just let me know. It might need some grease, or at the very least be used as a core.

 

waiting for teh new pics

 

dude I need that starter. And the pics haven't started yet. I just got pwr back from the hurricane that hit last week. So I haven't been able to truly work on anything. I'm going to try and do something this weekend and see by chance if it at least starts up. I need a battery and a starter

 

That's right it started today. I went bought a starter and a cheap battery and cranked it up!!! It started it didn't keep running, the egr valve was smashed (i think its the egr). So now I need to get another one of those. I think it'll hold an idle once I get one of those. And once that idle is held then. Within a month its off to the body shop

 

Good luck...

 

I'm hope things work out for you

 

Maaan Ace, i'm surprized you still have this car, I thought you gave up on it to be honest. Good to see you are still in the game, good luck on getting it put back together.

 

Well its a official. Its officially over I can no longer work on the max. Monday it is being towed to the junk yard. After figuring out everything and doing a final price of misc parts that I need, that I didn't figure in to start b/c I didn't know I was missing them, I'm junking the car. I missing to many little parts that starting to add up to to much. As of right now I'm looking at about $1500 additional then the 4k that I was already planned. And for that price I just go ahead and get a new one. So I'm stripping everything and selling the shell and engine to the junk yard. I still have all leather interior parts including seats. so....keep an eye out for a for sale thread in a little bit. Sorry to get everyones hope up.

 

sorry to here it but it's probably a smart move... i might do the same thing and buy an i30 or something. i just don't see my maxima ever getting done and i know since it got flooded it's getting worse and worse every day.

 

dropping the max is a smart move. good luck.
