Default Selling the camry!! Getting a L.............

Ok so todd finally convinced me I need to get that SC300... and he did a damn good job!@ I was impressed with what the motors can take and still be a great daily driver.

I decided to sell the Camry asap and see if I can get a nicely priced sc300 in decent shape hopefully before September kicks in.

I already started bringing the car back to stock and hopefully it will get sold this week.

I've already got everything for the turbo setup minus the intercooler so we should be cooking as soon as i get the car.

you wont regred it, turbo camry is nice but nothing but a headache, TonyTheTigers v6T camry was nice but he spend way too much money and time on that thing. I just picked my SC, Clean inside&out, 5speed, maryland inspected $3500
I will go na-t as soon as i get my other car running
good luck

headache is right! Yea I've seen what Tony's been through with that Camry but I can't afford the downtime and the amount of cash he's spent on it lol.

Screw that man, though I like SCs, I really like the Datsun project. Keep on that.

Sounds like a great idea!! I was on TN before and doing those turbos on the camrys are seriously a waste of time and normally nothing goes right with it. I think this is great move for you!!

Yep. I pretty much restored the car back to stock I just need to shine it up and paint the bumper/fender.

I need to decide on the selling price and grab an SC.

I wish i could but it has a far way to go. Needs new floors, new exhaust, fenders need to be fixed.

I could probably get it running to just drive around with I just need to rebuild the carbs.
