Time to start going back through all the threads, and try to learn something.
I'm a nissan noob :welcome
good good man!

welcome to you as well!

what are your plans for the car? show? go? daily drive?

and i bet that dent wouldnt be to hard to get out if you took out your trunk lining and gave her a good beating. wont come up flat, but it'll probably look better.

well, I did end up pushing that dent back out a little, it's definitely a bit better.

I'm a 'all go no show' guy..
however...
my plans were to keep the good old KA running as long as possible, and hit the suspension/body with what little money I do have.
probably SR over RB in the end, I've already got the 'big-engine little car' thing, and just want something that's a little more -- well-balanced fast daily driver. :eek:
plus, I've never liked kits or skirts, except on s13's. they always look hot.

I finally got the car up on the lift to take a look underneath, though..
Got holes in the "rails", a couple holes underneath the driver door, and up by the wheel well/shock tower in the engine bay.
man, what a dissapointing thing to see.
I'm not going to let it discourage me, though.. I live in Ohio at the moment.. haha
there's no way to keep a car rust-free up here.
hopefully this one doesn't break in half hitting a speedbump, before I can blast/patch/paint.

Welcome. Seems like a lot of Honda owners are getting Nissans. I just hope some don't bring that negative ricer stigma with them.
hahah, yeah.. none of us can afford S2000s :hahaha48
I do feel like a dirty bandwagon jumper, though
What gen prelude do you have?
