Sold the Maxima. Sold the Sentra. Bought a 99 Altima SE, blew all my friends minds that there was a 5 speed Altima for some reason. Bought Calum’s NX2000 ecu testbed car, still super clean. But the suspension was too stiff for anything other that perfect asphalt. After a few years of it mostly sitting I sold it and thats the last of the sr20 cars. Sold the Altima and got a 07 FJ Cruiser that I still drive. </div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;margin:0px;line-height:auto"><br></div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;margin:0px;line-height:auto">The FJ is ugly as sin but as a single tall man its great. I have headroom for days even at 6’5”, and yes its 4 doors but those suicide back doors are not exactly useful. Its bigger than it should be but smaller than you want. The 4L v6 gets out of its own way and all the fun stuff like a locker in the rear. </div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;margin:0px;line-height:auto"><br></div><div id="bloop_customfont" style="font-family:Helvetica,Arial;font-size:13px;margin:0px;line-height:auto">Id like another fun car, but it just doesn’t make much sense right now. Turned 40 and the last thing I want to do is wrench. Being so tall, any time under the hood of a car means hours bent over and my back just loathes that. No room for a lift so no wrenching for me. Fun car I’d like to have is something like a Chevy SS…but I keep going back to boring utility cars/trucks/suvs instead of money on something fast… I drive like a granny anyway.</div> <br> <div id="bloop_sign_1541520843799617024" class="bloop_sign"><div style="font-family:helvetica,arial;font-size:13px">-- <br>Kevin<br></div></div> <br><p class="airmail_on">On November 6, 2018 at 10:11:35 AM, Matt Hunt (<a href="mailto:mhunt@ecin.net">mhunt@ecin.net</a>) wrote:</p> <blockquote type="cite" class="clean_bq"><span><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div></div><div>

<p>Oh boy, list activity!</p>
<p>Earlier this year, I replaced my beloved Mazdaspeed3 (which I
moved on to from the SR20 world) after 9 years of miles and smiles.
When we were expecting our first child, my wife and I agreed that I
should get the "family" car as I have no commute. Her criteria: had
to fit the dog and baby safely at the same time. My criteria: fun
to drive with a bit more utility. Ended up with a '15 Audi SQ5
which has the ZF-8. Never had an auto trans vehicle before this so
it took some getting used to but overall I've been very happy with
it. Supercharger whine is no turbo spool, though! My projects are
more of the rural and small engine maintenance type these days.
Maybe just biding my time until the owner of my old turbo B13
decides to move on and she ends up back in my garage down the
line...<br></p>
<p>Glad to see some old, familiar names back in my inbox. Got my
first SE-R when I was 20 and turned 39 last month... time keeps on
slippin slippin slippin....<br></p>

I’ve been through a couple of boat tow
vehicles in the last 7 years but now I have a 2003 Frontier for bad
weather and a 2014 Jaguar XJ V8 Supercharged for everything else.
The ZF 8-speed auto is pretty amazing. It’s a hooligan car
that you can toss around and have some fun.

<div dir="auto">My 1991 SE-R was a daily until about 2017. I
drive it about 1000 miles a year but it needs bodywork as the paint
has started flaking off but thankfully I don't see any major
rust. I may daily it during the winter though so slightly
worried about that. I am in Baltimore. I have this car
as second owner since 1997 I think. I want to restore the
paint and probably not much else. Car has 300k miles on it
but just 200k on the engine with s3 cams and most of the bolt on
that we're available in the early 2000s.

normally aspirated V8 and a 7.5Kish redline. This is the most
seriously rapid car I've owned and it handles itself well for a big
car. No manual trans but the 7speed auto and flappy paddles
work well in manual mode. It is also comfy and currently bone
stock. I have an AMG limited slip differential on the shelf I
want to install though. :)</div>
