I just finished pulling all the parts out of my FD. The roll bar was a mother fucker. Diff and tranny are both out. No hood or lights. Doors and fender are stored away. She looks so bare....



So I stood there for about a minute thinking of all the crazy **** I did with her. I've said it before and I'll say it again...owning an FD is like dating a super model. Yeah she's a bitch....but she's sooooo hot.



I shead a tear(s) looking at her. Maybe one day I can own another one. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683528.gif

i've never seen a dead one up close before

jspecracer7 10-28-2005 02:37 PM

You don't want pics. Imagine a hot ass supermodel without her makeup and wardrobe.



Why did I do it? 3 children. In Japan, we're only allowed 1 car per licensed driver in a household. So my wife has a Toyota minivan and I had the 7. The FD was impractical for 3 kids. I could only fit either my wife, Alex, Evan or Vanessa in the car, but not all 4 at the same time. I had no motor in her. The only plates I had to rebuild her with were bridgeport plates. She ran out of JCI (japan's version of a extremely difficult inspection) in December. I couldn't drive any of my kids in her because of the noise, plus no AC.



I still own an Fc in the states so I'm still "loyal", but it hurts me to put her down. She had to go. This was the hardest decision for me to make. I had to do it for my family...and I hope my family understands when I take a moment of silence, bow my head and shead a tear because it really does hurt to see her go...

sucks, time to get the dog a drivers license!

rowtareh 10-28-2005 03:27 PM

Damn, that sucks. And I thought Maryland was strict with inspection and emissions laws. What are you going to replace it with? Hopefully something is some fun to drive.

rotaryinspired 10-28-2005 03:32 PM

Dang I almost gave up a tear on that one. Well good luck. You'll get another one someday I am sure.

Um...soarer doesn't have 4 doors. Or else I would have gotten the soarer. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/boink.gif

There is a **** load of room in the back though - the old man got a turbo one not too long ago and I'd imagine long journeys would be fine.

Dramon_Killer 10-30-2005 04:19 AM

all the cool kids are doing it....



tho honestly a chaser is pretty tight too. haha.



maybe an aristo

?"

GreyGT-C 10-30-2005 09:10 AM

you coulda got the backseats for the FD ya know......

nopistons94 10-30-2005 09:15 AM

I need 5 seats, not 4. Remember we had twins? Either way, they wouldn't fit with the roll cage!



I would have like to pick up an Aristo, but they didn't have any in my price range. It's too hard to put baby seats in the back of a 2 door car, even if it does have a lot of room. The chaser is only $3500 with two years of JCI. Comes with Tein height adjustable suspension and full exhaust. I have to go get a Apexi EGV to quiet it down when the kids are riding. Friend of mine's selling an HKS GT3040 Kit for $1700. Got a twin plate for $400. Still have my old rims/tires. Going to add some 680cc injectors, Power FC and a FMIC and call it a day. 500 hp~ with AC. Won't be as fast as the FD, but it'll be fun!

Dramon_Killer 10-30-2005 05:32 PM

Haha, oh nice.



How much do chasers go for in japan anyways?
