Well, been a lurker for some time, but I just bought a 92 Dodgle Colt as a DD for $600 the other day. Not in the best condition, but it seems to run pretty well and I'm expecting some great MPG! I've been into DSM's for years now and know that if the motor ever goes in it, then a 4g63 will go in it to make it a little more fun :twisted: Also have 2 other cars/toys. Have a 90 GSX thats pretty well built and that is getting swapped over to auto now. Aiming to get 9's out of her! Other car is a 95 240sx that has a 1jz swap into it that I use for drifting! Hope to be a productive member of the forum and will be looking for some parts soon/now!

Shane

Since you live in NC I was gonna ask how many times you have been to the Dragon, but it is 8.5 hours away from Jacksonville...

Congrats on changing from lurker to member! LOL

Alright, don't have any of the Colt at the moment, and she isnt much to look at, but here is some of the other 2 cars.

The 240SX (Don't mind the body damage...just a slight encounter with a wall!)

The GSX (Goin for a sleeperish look)

yeah 1jz swapped in, coilovers, act clutch, lightweight flywheel, boost controller, wideband, safc 2,and turbos back exhaust. Nothing too crazy. Have a he341 from a cummins sitting here to go on, but need to get a manifold and wastegate. Trying to get a cage installed soon along with a seat and harness. Hoping to get it up to spec to enter proam events next year.

Welcome to the site! Its nice to see another person on here from NC. I actually saw that car on Craigslist and thought about going to take a look at it. Glad you picked it up though.

Do you know John and Jason Wier from Wilmington? They have the super fast black 1gb auto talons.

I have seen their cars up here before, as they run them at the drag strip right down the road from my house, but dont really know them. I was hoping to get some help from them on tuning the eclipse, but it didn't seem like they were interested :( And I didn't pick up the car off craigslist...i just had a moment of weakness and had listed it up there. :cry: Also, are you on CDSM doing the super clean swap into the colt?
