No probably not. I am going to see what the price for all the bodywork on the CRX would be. There is also this car I was looking at: http://erdtforum.teamzx2.com/viewtopic.php?t=19699 The only thing is he wants 10g's USD. Tell me what you think of that too. As for old Supras I do like them, but I may as well just get a Skyline. If I get a Skyline it is going to be a Drift car. That still makes me pumped just to think about drifting in that thing.

not to be a dick, but hows the frame.
one of my boys has a 240. it looks new and drives nice but he needs to redue the frame. its dieing and hes put so much $$$$$ in it. its now off the road and hes pissed about it. also he has some friends with the same problem. they all have 93 240's. if you look into this check for the rust protection and if its been done.

i do like them im not trying to carve them up but this happens. just like a civic and the rear fenders.

civics are all over the place but are cheaper.
neons are the same.

get a crx and do the Blackwidow widebody.
thats my opinion. i love that kit :hail:

yes they should , ummm by the way there unibody so anybody with a peanut in their head some square tube steel and a mig welder can fix that problem and re-inforce the body structure at the ame time, and if they have the time tie the unibody into the subframe, can anybody say stiff stiff stiff, like a car on viagra

It seems as though my Skyline idea might not exzactly happen and it is not exzactly something I can easily fix if it something breaks. I am still looking for one though if someone has some ideas as to where to get one for a fair price.

Would an old-school Civic have anything available? I think it would be different.

Eg:

SUMMER:
02 Trans Am WS6
