1990 Nissan 240SX For Sale

From the ad on UsedVicoria:

Come view this fine vehicle on Ross Durrance Rd where I parked it on the side of the road in the swamp. Carpets a little wet, and a few minor dents and scratches. Handles air time well. Seems to pull to the left a bit.

Two more pics after the jump! Thanks for the tip, Evan!

The Cars We Choose to Keep

By Ryan Douthit

Short of any new cars to review this week, I’m going to go ahead and talk about one of my own cars, a 1990 Mazda Miata. I suppose most folks would rather take public transportation than attempt to navigate city streets in this little bolt bucket: The gear-changer is sketchy, the brakes are weak, the chassis is creaky and the interior is worn beyond any reasonable repair.

The same could be said for my friends. They aren’t the most successful, they don’t have perfect marriages and they don’t always pay their credit cards on time. They have their flaws, but that’s okay. I still keep them around.

Probably Not a Good Idea

I think Dave wins the biggest POS award from the comments left on Mike’s post earlier this week. But this exhaust setup on his 1990 Accord looks pretty sketch. Seems like some heavy duty wire would be a better choice. What do you think?

Going Slideways with Earl Smith's Seven-Up

By Sean

As Rob stated below, drifting is all about style, and that’s more than evident in Earl Smith’s crazy 1990 Mazda RX-7. He’s been drifting for about three years now, and his main goal has always been simple: to have fun. So when it came time to start building up the Seven, he wanted the style to reflect that. It’s definitely a bit over-the-top, and you have to have a sense of humor to appreciate it, but I think he’s got the fun factor nailed.

On the track, Earl’s driving style is very smooth and each transition is well-planned. During my ride along I was surprised how calm and relaxed he was. I expected sheer aggression, but even as we entered the switchbacks with massive amounts of speed, he slid through with alarming ease. You can definitely tell he’s done this before.

Follow the jump for some more details, pics and a video of the Seven-Up (I think I just made that up).
