  1. Thanks. If the automotive industry was my career, I'd rather be a body repair/detail specialist than a mechanic. I can drool over a superbly clean classic car all day.
  2. Sheboygan. My Starion is still located in Fresno, California though. I'll ship it here when the time comes.
  3. Dude I envy you already, I haven't even felt a minute of track time. I'm barely starting out building my car. Z for track, Starion for restoration/pride/joy and WRX for daily. But when I bought the rims from the seller I was like "Is this guy on crack?", after getting them I felt like I bought stolen rims. His craigslist post didn't even show pictures or description of it. All he said was he needs it gone. I just needed something to roll the car in and out of the garage and when I went to look at it, I didn't even argue about the price. I drove off with a fat a** smile.
  4. You wouldn't believe how much I got all 4 rims with those tires for. $75 for all 4 rims with those Yokohama A008R
  5. Well, I don't ever come here often but instead of posting another thread, I decided to use this one. UPDATE!!! As of 03/27/2010 With the economy sucking as much as it does, I couldn't find a decent career in California. I MOVED TO WISCONSIN! And found myself a pretty damn stable job. I shipped my Z here with me and drove it until the snow came down. I'd be risking myself everyday with the Z in the snow so I picked up this: Just a basic WRX, don't be fooled by the STI spoiler. I needed something sporty and AWD and my main picks were an All-trac Celica or this. "What about the Starion?" It's still sitting in CA in my parents garage, untouched. I finally found a place to buy an OEM injector for the car. Fuel Injector Clinic I've searched for awhile looking for these, I don't know if any of you tried this place. But I'll make sure to let you guys know how it goes with them. Nothing has been done with the car, just sold the fugly rims and got these for it: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0011.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0012.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0014.jpg
  6. @Kreal Wow, I notice your sig. I might be buying some parts after I get my hands dirty with the Starion. Good to see a great community of Starquest fanatics.
  7. @Edde Lol, I'm a dude. If you type Fairlady Z into google you'll see what I mean. Fairlady Z is a name they give to the Z cars.
  8. Lol, a lot of my friends came by and was like wt....? Supra, Trueno, Celica, 300ZX? I told them it's a mutt, cross breed with everything. Now I'm not too sure if the milage is really 115xxx, just drove around the block a few times and the milage didn't go up?
  9. :confused0024: I was told by the previous owner that it was an 89. I picked up the whole car with parts for $1100. Lesson learned for me. I'm planning to restore it from the shape that it's in. Nothing majorly wrong. Jet valves been deleted, going to put stock pipings back, and clean up the dents. Modifications will come afterwards. The rims are 19" TSW Kyalami that I might put up for sale just so I can get some money to repair the Starion.
  10. Woops just checked my paper work. It's an 88. My bad. And my rear passenger mud guard is damage. Pictures when I get a camera. @BOHO No worries, I wasn't taking anything the wrong way. Thanks for giving me the heads up though.
  11. Thanks for the warm welcome guys. The Starion I picked up has been sitting non-op for 4 years. It's still running, I was able to drive it 370 miles back to my house. @allen405 Z cars are nice. I'm still looking for a the 84 Anniversary Edition model of the Z31. @Mazarin Really? DAMN! There are some minor damage on the mud guards. @BOHO How would I tell if it is or not? I'm new to Starion.

  13. Just wanted to say Hi to the Starquest Club. I just recently bought a 88 Starion in mint condition and was recommended by a friend to join the club. Pictures of when I got it before cleaning up: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/S5000698.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/S5000699.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/S5000697.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/S5000702.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/S5000703.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0175.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0176.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0177.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0178.jpg Pictures after cleaning: From this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0192.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0188.jpg To this: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0189.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0191.jpg I left half the side skirt dirty and cleaned the other half to show how bad it was. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0190.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/DSC09394.jpg And some goodies that came with the car: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0179.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0180.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0181.jpg And don't mind my name being FairladyZ, I also own a 84 300ZX. FairladyZ has been my common name in other car forums so I just kept it that way. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0182.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v703/cali559pianist/Cars/PIC-0183.jpg Edit: Reached my limit of posting pictures, will post more when I can. And sorry most of the pictures are from my phone camera.
