New car to toy with?
 

My friend kinda got deported for violating the terms of his temp visa so hes sellin his 91 dx hatchback for 700 dollars the body is like brand new and it runs good the only downside is its a 4 speed. Is that a good deal. Im thinkiin z6 swap or old school b16 come on opinions please. Thanx

Re:New car to toy with?
 

---- yeah buy it! i could be wrong, but all you would need for it to be a 5 spd. would be a new tranny, you already have the pedal assy. and shifter and linkage, not like converting an auto to manual.......

Re:New car to toy with?
 

if i remember my field car days correctly, doesnt the 4 speed have the really long shifter

Re:New car to toy with?
 

any car that has a good body and runs decently for $700 is a good deal!! I would definatly buy it ad use it as a drag car, extra racer, and easily swap out the motor for at least a zc......then bust a HMT setup and you'll be straight!! 8)

Re:New car to toy with?
 

What does a zc engine run in price? and does anybody have a url to a site that sells the zc thanx

Re:New car to toy with?
 

were did he get deported too ?

Re:New car to toy with?
 

just buy it, even if it's a STD at least it's got the manifold for TURBO!! pssst... pssst...

I have an 88 std hangin' around doin' nothin' don't drive it or touch it. Bah. SoCali lookin' for an 88 hatch?

Re:New car to toy with?
 

I think he's lying. The U.S. never deported anyone. :D

Re:New car to toy with?
 

---- THE GOVERNMENT!

this ---- pisses me off. just cuz a bunch of ------ towel heads wanna be lowlife piece of ---- terrorists, now it seems like ALL immigrants are having a hard time. it seems like these ----------ers are trying to deport anybody they can using 911 as an excuse.

anyways buy the car, its a good deal. i would buy it even if it didn't come with a motor for that price as long as the body is in good condition.

Re:New car to toy with?
 

He VIOLATED his TEMPORARY visa which means he fucked up and he wasn't even a permanent resident. ---- that, send them all back. >:( If we didn't let any of them enter in the first place, this never would have happened. >:( Sorry to sound like a dick, and I don't mean to argue with you, but damn......

i guess im just venting. ever since 911 its a lot easier to violate your visa, and its alot harder to appeal. actually, now you CANT appeal anymore, at least thats what i have heard. if they say you are deported you cant do ---- about it anymore, whereas before you could try and fight it. also, trying to handle any of your immigration paperwork is way more of a bitch now.

im not an immigrant, but i got some "alien" homies. i just get mad at americans who forget that their families were once immigrants. unless you are native american, you have no right to tell people to get the ---- out of your country unless they are major fuckups or a drain on society.

by the way Doc, if we never let any of them in this STILL WOULD HAVE HAPPENED. ever heard of timothy mcveigh? or the unibomber? or what about the other wasp american terrorist that everybody tries to brush off, forget, and act like "oh, they must have had a fucked up childhood"

Re:New car to toy with?
 

Yeah, I don't know what was wrong with those rejects. This particualr attack wouldn't have happened, but you are right, some others might have and it is possible for one of our own to do it, but in this case it wasn't. I just think that giving them too much trust is what got us in trouble in the first place. I think trust should be earned, not given.

buy that car. not all standards have the hf stlye manifold, some have long ones, both my 90' and 91's standard 4 speed had long manifolds. i think honda just put whatever they felt like in that car.....all the shitty motor/tranny stuff.

Re:New car to toy with?
 

Yeah he got deported back to pakistan because he wasnt sposed to have a job or be going to school it was basicaly a visitors visa. He was a really good guy it sux for him. But on the up side he now models for levis jeans in pakistan lol but yeah im goin to talk tohis dad about the car tomorrow. I found the complete zc swap. Engine 5 speed swap and ecu for $950 or for $1350 i can get a complete b16a1 swap. Good prices?

Re:New car to toy with?
 

levi's jeans in pakistan...lol pimp

anyways, as far as prices get the b16 for $1350. even a complete zc swap for $950 isn't a very good deal, unless that includes labor or that motor is rare in your area. either way, the b16 is a pretty good deal for that price, especially if its for the complete swap. so i would get the b16 swap if i were you. do it right the first time. i got a d16z6/y8, but i really wish i had saved up just a little more for a b series.

Re:New car to toy with?
 

Hell yes, buy it and if you have the money get the B16. Better engine to start with and for about 2g's you will have a really good base car to do pretty much whatever you want.

And also

We are all immigrants in a way, I agree if you do something wrong they should kick you out and back to wherever they came from, and I'm sort of glad the laws are harder now because that way we can probably prevent future attacks.
