MY NEW CAR!!! and bike good quality pics
so i thought i'd finally get some good pics up of the bike and of my new car. the bike ive already explained now for the car
i bought it with 110k miles on it its a 1990 ALL stock every last detail
i bought it from the original owner middle age guy very nice and took care of this car except for the rust... thats the only bad
the rust on this car SUCKS its nothing i cant handle with ease but it still sucks, large spot on the rear quarter and the hatch is FUBAR but still holds so luckily i can replace that whole things, i think i'll re-paint this car lol body work.... fun... BUT the interior if freaking well... you can tell me how the interior is

the thing thats weird is since I've owned both, theres ALOT of similarities to the interior of this car and the 300ZX. its crazy.... the steering wheel is almost exactly the same, the center council is almost the exact same the little pods on the side of the steering wheel is very similar door panels are like identical the interior material is basically the same, its very humbling. the rear seats look useless though lol dashboards are very similar its nutty.....

hatch is completly replaceable after that its just one spot on each rear wheel well. not a big deal, the metal rubberized coating at the bottom is rotting out (its also the same meterial as the 300zx) but i was thinking of just getting a kit so i can just cut the stuff out and replace the rest save time and maybe even money. a very subtle kit though i dont want people to really know its a kit lol.

lol then think of the house billz for charging that ****!!! it probably wont even out haha. thats why hybrids will work they charge as they run unless full charge then they are full electric. also yeah love the bike rode it today a bit (started to sprinkle out though) and got my lean on in the turns. makes bike riding so much fun the lean you can get then POW straight up POWA 108 whp once the stock exhaust emision system is eliminated (originally 93whp) then with a FULL exhaust intake and a tune this bike will put down 125whp. freakin sweet! and in a bike that weighs in 390lbs.

electricity costs way less to put on a full charge.
Hybrids use gas to charge the batteries which costs way more. Plug-in Hybrids offer the best mix of charging at home for super cheap and the occasional charge while out on the road for longer range.
If you charged a daily driver you may pay $30-40 more per month in electricity vs whatever you spend for a daily driver in gas. $300-400 for a lot of people.
I was just kidding though. KA24e rocks!

lol you crazy!!!! rotary engines dont get good MPG haha. they are a high fuel consumption engine. a rotary would be cool i found a TT 2 rotor for sale on craigs list with tranny and a 3 rotor didnt say anything about a tranny though. but wanted like 3k for the 2 rotor i think. we will see.... i will probably just use it as a beater piece of **** car and if i ever decide to sell the bike... next summer... lol IF IF IF!!!! i will get a nice restored for racing S30 roller chassis and stick the motor of choice i want in that bitch shouldnt cost me more than 7k and im sure i can re-sell the bike for that if i fix the light scratches on the upper fairing/cowl cause teh 240 is honestly nothing i feel like i would enjoy putting money into....
