should i get another car......

Post by Bheinen74 »

i already have 4 cars
I work with this girl who just blew the motor in her 93 Inifinti G20.
It's a pretty nice car in great shape, except for the motor (red, leather, auto, alloys, etc with very little rust 160,xxx miles). I offered to buy it from her, as she said she was probably going to send it to the scrapper. and they will only probably give her 60 or so for it. Right now it is sitting at a repair shop 7 miles from my house, and that who would give her the scrap offer.
so............ I offered 100 - up to 150 and thiink she would take it. Is this a good deal?
Figured I could get a JDM motor for it off EBAY and fix it to sell, or else part it out on EBAY for income. thoughts.........

OMG OMG OMG :smt007

Do it, 5-speed swap, and then turbo it or put an SR20VE in.

Or just do the motor and 5-speed swap. Either way.

I love G20s, especially the P10. :-D Truly wonderful cars.

BTW, JDM SR20DE from Soko in Chicago = $400 picked up, $500 shipped to a business with dock, or $550 shipped to a residential address. They all have 40,000 miles or less on them, and a 6-month warranty. I picked mine up.

I guess I should elaborate on why I love G20s.

1. Handling. 100 times better than my Legacy. It was named one of the 10 best-handling cars in the world by some British magazine.
2. Shifter and clutch are great, even though it's a cable clutch on the P10.
3. 7500 RPM redline ahoy!
4. Did I mention the handling?

If you do pick it up, stop by G20.net. It's like LCO but for G20s instead of first-gen Legacies.
