Normally they aren't cheap. There are a few bases closing (like the one I work at) and people are needing to unload stuff. The SOHC vtec was 60 bucks and I sold the radiator that came with it for 20. The ZC I paid 250 for with tranny and wiring harness. The other motor in the picture is a CA18DET that usually sells for 1500 bucks in the states and I picked it up for 150 bucks and sold the turbo off of it for 50 bucks. So I just get lucky. Hopefully I will be getting another for cheap.
I just picked up a Benz for 1300 bucks from someone leaving. Check it out. Add it to the collection of cars.
The wheels are 5x112. I just picked up another set of Mesh Benz wheels for 75 bucks from another guy unloading stuff.
The Benz is very nice it is just a gas killer. Easy 70 bucks on mid grade to fill it up. It will do 240kmh on the autobahn with ease though. What made it a better deal is it had a full tune up (not cheap) and the tires are brand new yokohamas that only had 70kms when I bought it. The tires alone were 500 bucks shipped.
I might sell the benz and buy another wagon though
So the wife was complaining that the tires had too much roll to them so I decided to give up the 16s and put them on her car. I figured since they have new tires anyways and the curves she has to drive everyday why not see what they look like. Here you go
I like them all. Any set of wheels from your collection look good on the wagon. I think if the Autecs were black they would compliment your wagon's color better. Just my 2 cents.
NO NO not purple. I freaking hate purple. They are more blue in person though. Yeah I thought about black but I had this blue laying around so I figured why the hell not. I got some BMW Mesh with a 20 offset I want to try on there later. I am just looking for the right tires right now.
Quit breaking my balls :evil: . I think they look pretty damn good Blue, Purple, Blurple whatever. Something different is always good. I will get another set of rims and paint them black just for you color blind guys.
It's not your fault.It's the camera.From my experience all the following can make it look like a different shade:
1)camera angle
2)sunny or overcast
3)flash or no flash
4)shade or no shade
5)indoor or outdoor
It isn't the camera it is these guys that forgot to wear their glasses 8)
HA HA. There is a slight hint of purple where the paint went on a little thicker for some reason. Doesn't matter I am going to rock them just the way they are. :shock: HA HA
the color of the car makes them look like purple, i think...
whatever color is that, i like it.
theres no color that could take away the original charm of a wagon
Blurple. LOL. Dont worry no matter what your wagon looks cool even with blurple wheels and I just put on a new pair of contact lenses so I can see the pic more clear.
Well I traded this rear license plate panel. I thought that it would fit a whole lot better but I think it sucks. I guess I should have just kept the other panel but I helped out a fellow Wagon owner so it is all good. It is a little better but I really thought that the license plate would fit a whole lot better. So I had to make a filler panel to cover up some of those extra holes. I also think I will give it a fresh coat of paint to make it look a little better.
ShuttleXer if you read this your panel will be coming soon.
your wagons are so damn nice sir, and i love the color of those rims that benz is VIP for sure and it is so bad ass i wish i could buy it when/if you sell it
Thank you very much for the compliment. The Benz was up for sale but I just couldn't come to sell such a nice car, especially not one that I scored for 1300 bucks (cheaper than the Wagon). I am looking to bump up the rim size to about 18 if I can find a set cheap enough. I just got my S13 back and loving the turbo.
and just bought these Veilside Rims for it
:twisted:
It is also funny that nobody cares when you write EDM to USDM, but if it was USDM to JDM I would get all the oooooooh's and ahhhhhhhhhhh's. HA HA HA it is okay fellas I know you have all the USDM stuff
hey ragen, once you get my panel (if and when) you could use it on your wagon. its in better condition then what yours seems to be, so chin up . haa, anyways. is you military plate smaller then a US plate? it seems way smaller for some reason :S
Now that I have all the cars here at one location I want to get pictures of all of them together. Won't be "Super Street" or anything but it will be the first time I will have had all the cars together.
NJ we have some more info on when I am going to get that other wagon. I should have it in September or October so expect the other lower center console around that time. It has part of it cut out because it is being used to house a one din equalizer. I am guessing you are still interested because it will probably be the last one I can get. Most of the car is already spoken for oddly enough but we will see when it comes time if anybody has the money to pay for the items they want :roll: I will let you know when I have a more concrete date on when we are going to strip it of all its goodies.

The BBS wheels
The Autecs I painted blue

Thanks for your input as always.
