Drove almost 12hrs. today to get this beauty, only have one good photo atm... but rest assured there will be more to come for this great car. Let me just start off the whole introduction by saying........ if you don't have the Tein suspension, you have NO idea what you are missing. This Si is truly a well kept machine. I have all the plastic already to replace the cracked pieces, and it has a one piece hood in great shape. The Tein coilovers, 24mm torsion bars and Cusco strut tower bars as well as a rear sway bar. There will be some additional suspension work, but not much. This car has ice cold A/C and will be my daily starting today.

It still has the good ol' EW in it, but with a street cam, CAI, Mugen headers, a full custom cat-back, and a PERFECT maintenance life; it will REALLY pull hard. I was really shocked at how well the car runs, but it REALLY runs soo soo good. I'll have photos and videos up later for everyone to see. Only the best of my parts collection is going on this baby, and it will be painted and repaired for daily enjoyment.

Show some love fellas'!!

Nice come up!

I think you got a bargain at the offered price. I was tempted to go for it but I already have a space problem for the small fleet I have. The flight and customs was also a factor. Plus my wife probably would have said something nasty to me. Instead I will selling off her 97 Maxima for whatever bargain price I can get. At 327,000KM it still runs great. I will be inheriting my Dad's 2001 Maxima with only 36,000KM and showroom condition. Only downside it's an autobox compared to our 5 speed. Can't comp;ai as this car will last a long time to come for the family DD.

Enjoy your new ride and get those photos posted. JS

<------------MAD JEALOUS!!!!!!!

Max Props on the find, and you CAN NOT tell me its wasnt worth a 12 hour drive!

[oldskul]

nice come up bro

Very nice! Definitely worth the drive to get this car. I drove 900 miles and towed my white 86 Si back home from California but it was worth it too because of the cleanliness of the car and all the goodies already on it. All white Si's just look so good for the CRX and hatch's it's just to bad they only came one year.
Well enjoy your new ride and we'll keep an eye out for those pics.

[Old School REX]

Thanks for even more love guys! Yeah, I would have driven even further for this car for sure; especially now that I've seen just how clean it is. Expect mad photos later after I get home, maybe tommorrow. About to leave the hotel and love on my new machine a bit.

I hope you're not accessing the Intarwebs while you're zooming along I-81!

Except for a friend who used to own a 1G and understands how awesome these cars are, everyone local I told about the sale was amazed. "The buyer drove over from NASHVILLE?"

Just my luck, not even an hour after Cam leaves with his new acquisition, my "new" DD throws a MAF code.

[Old School REX]

Oh no Doug! lol u need to get that software so you can diagnose your own stuff man!

Just checking in on my trip to say that I was NOT texting and driving... I put the lady at the wheel. lol cleared a full tank of gas and calculated the mileage at 44.8 MPG exactly. I... Freakin'.... Win... This is the perfect car. not too much further now.

What part do you like about the Teins? I've never been in a car with that setup.
