My Cars
Some pictures are "clickable" for additional information.
I have owned, at last count, 11 different cars. My latest purchase was a 1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R that had 451,000 miles on it. The car was bought strictly as a parts car, and I only owned it for about 6 weeks, but it's soul will live on through out the SE-R community (since I sold a lot of stuff off of it).
This is my 1992 Nissan NX2000. The NX is based upon the B13 chassis which is also the base for the 1991-1994 Nissan Sentra. What does this mean? It means all chassis and drive-train components available for the Sentra will correspond to the NX. The NX was manufactured from 1991-1993. Basically, it is the "CRX" to the Civic for Nissan's line-up of cars - meaning it is sportier than the more civilian brother.
This is my 1992 Nissan Sentra SE-R. It was bought to replace my silver beater Civic, but I was so impressed with its ability that I have decided to modify it - slowly as money permits though. I have always wanted a Classic (1991-1994) SE-R because I really liked their shape and styling.
The latest Civic that I've owned was purchased for $150, and I sold it for $800. I bought it from a buddy of mine, but unfortunately I didn't take pictures of the car - probably would have been a waste of bandwidth. It was a 1990 Civic HB Standard.
I have also been the proud owner of a 1991 Nissan 300ZX Twin Turbo. This was a very fun and fast car. I owned it two years before I sold it. It ran a best quarter-mile time of 13.7 seconds with just an intake at stock boost.
My previous project "Money Pit" before the Z was my 1990 Honda Civic SI. I also owned it for two years before selling it. I spent quite a bit of money on this car, and it was a fun car that ran exceedingly well.
Probably the best car I have owned was my 1989 Honda Civic DX. I owned it for nearly four years - the longest I have ever owned a car, and it ran great the entire time. I would not have hesitated to drive it anywhere. I finally sold it because it had terminal skin cancer (rust in the quarter panels).
Another project car that I've owned is a 1988 Mazda RX-7 SE. All I have to say is that it did not run when I bought it, I got it running, and it didn't run when I sold it. Rotaries are cool little motors, but I did not have the time or money to spend on it.
I bought my only 4-door vehicle in August of 1997. This was a Geo Prism. It needed some love when I first bought it, but by the time I sold it (once again after two years) it looked a lot different.
My second car was a 1991 Pontiac Sunbird. It ran strong, and it is a good car overall. It was the first car that received a good stereo.
My first car was a 1985.5 Mercury Lynx, which is just Mercury's version of an Escort. It was baby blue and didn't run worth crap, but I was 16 years old.
