Default Lex-Fiend's TEMPORARY goodbye to SC300.

My photoshoot thread

So, although I LOVE the SC300 and loved mine even more, I'm a drift nut and the SC was not practical to drift. So I've sold her in order to buy a car more, "drift freindly" (240sx). I will end up getting another SC3 by the summer, but 97+ (auto), only to be used for DD, with only suspension, rims and exhaust for a fun drive.

Thanks to all for the useful info that was shared and the grown-up feel of this forum. CL has changed how I felt about forum sites, because this is how a forum site should be. I'll stick around until I get another SC, but i'll continue to be in the GS forum, I still have that one.

Later fella's/ladies.

common Johnny. i will be sliding mine a lot. you should have done it too.

240 is a lot easier to learn on though. good luck and come out to Drift Days next year with the new ride

Wow....I had a 240 (SR20) swap. It was fun...but I needed a more grown up car.

People kept thinking I was Pavel...Then I'd get out of the car and they would say "Oh, its that OTHER asshat."

Be strong. Try not to let that half a year without an SC drive you crazy

Sad to see ya go, even if it is temporary, your SC was comin along nicely. Didnt wanna add a little boost to see if that would put you at ease

Man, i came from a 240sx to a SC and wow is all i could say. I could never go back to a 240, plus i went back to the forums to ask a question they ALL flamed me, pretty pathetic. But whatever most of them are honda hoppers. Becareful! 240 are getting stolen like civics now! Plus sr20dets are pretty cheap and reliably s13.5! haha have fun.

posting for sc300jz. keep forgetting to log off.!
