I my self have owned a few cars over the years, i go through my photo's and think i should of kept that car but there's a few i wish i never bought in the first place. the car i wish i still owned was a 1974 corolla ke20 it had a 1.8 2TGE turbo couldn't beat it for power to weight.

my 4 Door R32 GTS-t...it was stock...i sold it because i thought it needed "too much work" and wanted to get into a 180. It had no rust, chassis was a little bent, but not bad, and the interior just needed a touch up...apart from that it was great...tein shocks, $1100 JVC cd/dvd player, stock motor except it was running 11psi...it was great...

then i rushed selling it to buy an s13, which i now regret so much

Mk 1, 2 door escort, stright, bright red, gold simmonds and no rust!

mine were silver hotwires with white wall FAT tires. was a Mk1 1972. fitted a 2L pinto though with webbers.... was a very very mean machine... sold for 300 bucks. :D

A bit of sentiment here...

It was my 1st car; a new Datsun 1600 Nathane Yellow.

Mods incl. a radio/cassette (new back then), chrome wheels, No.1 Pool ball on the gear stick, Weber side draught carbie that made the Capitol Motors Service Engineer go Wow!, blackened back panel, aftermarket centre console, a light in the cigarette lighter.

It'd look great next to my R34 GT-R 2000

Other fond memories incl. Alfetta GTV 1979, Alfa Romeo 164Q 1990, R33 GT-R 1995, BMW 328Ci 1999

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
