I'm looking for cars that would like to be in magazines. To my surprise, I'm told that these cars needs to be built more for performance then show. BUT it does need to have exterior modifications. You can be a trailer queen but you better have the performance to back it up. So please keep that in mind. All those interested can PM me or reply on here. I know there are some badass cars on here but you have to take the first step...you have nothing to lose! Eventually, I'll need your mod list so please have that ready if you are interested. Thanks guys.

BTW:

NO EVO's, STI's and Z's please. (they are lined up with them for months).
NO Domestic cars unless they are heavily modified with some import flare to it
Civics and Integras have to be VERY impressive. (built motor/boost/interior done/exterior done/baller parts all over...etc)

ive got a 461whp,391wtq 92 nissan sentra and trust me its all built for performance. There is really no show about this car, although clean but not really show quality, haha BTW all work done by myself and noone else, no shops. I ran 11.3@127 on baby slicks that i used for my old setups weaker setups, slipping clutch, and traction problems due to small slicks, couldnt give it any more than 1/2 throttle 1st-3rd gear. haha

hey just though it would throw it out there being its different and you dont see too many fully built fwd SR20's.

good luck man. it's going to be pretty hard to find a show/go/ballerific car here, I mean, there are a couple but not many.

Might want to try az240sx.org. While many of them are drifters, there are a couple of RX7's, Sil80's, and 240's that I think would fit what you're looking for.

there is a guy named George that has an LS1 swapped RX7 that is fucking amazing. I'll make a post over there for you tonight and see who pops up. Also, Fueled performance would be a great shop to call. If they have any of their shop cars done then you'd have some great shit to shoot.

Thanks, yea let me know what you find. Seems like you got a feel of what I'm looking for so let me know. If that LS1 swap RX7 is pretty showy on the outside and has something every other LS1 swap RX7 dont have then it shouldnt be too hard I'd imagine.

wow, really? that MR2 is SEX imo.
You'll dig the RX7. (unless he's recently hit a wall with it).
Do you want me to get the purple 240 for you? I'm sure he'd be 100% down for a shoot.

The MR2 is sex....but it's been featured before. Even the industry dont want sloppy seconds I guess. :tits:

But yea, I'm diggin the RX7 so shoot a a couple of pictures if you can. Then the 240, I'll just need a modlist and if the car is still in the same condition as pictured or not. I know most owners will buy a new front lip for a magazine shoot but I can photoshop it in too if he cant.

good looking out dude AZ needs this quite badly and hopefully some other people will take notice and step up their games here.

Couple people have already PM'd me and have not posted in here so I can vouch that you guys got some really nice cars in AZ. I just hope their willing to come out of hiding.


if you are in fresno I can set you up with some of my boys that are just a short drive up the I-5

Let me know what you have then. I-5 is where I ride. :thumbup:

well its been in the process of getting built for who knows how long....but


MINE should be done in the next few weeks...

It is currently at import autoworks getting some final touch ups than its off to the joes:


I can provide list lets just say it includes ERL, Full Race T4 Top, BullsEye S372 w HUGE RACE COVER....


Just PM me if interested..no one out there has really heard or seen my build but it should right there with the HOT list that was provided earlier...

Oh forgot to mention...

Its a 00 Si Flamenco Black Pearl that was just recently resprayed factory again.
I have not cheaped out on one single aspect of my build...

let me know...


I think since it is still in its final stages you can also maybe get some pics of the build process??

I know i always LOVE seing the transformational process instead of just the finished build, makes you appreciate the hard work much more...

This forum amazes me. I'm trying to do something nice here for those who may be interested and I'm questioned why am I doing it and why choose AZ? There is way too much negative attitude in here. For those that are still interested, please feel free to PM me your info and a couple of pictures, I'm done here.




Hoping to find those 3....you know where they are?




Craig, the current car on the cover of Modified is one of the fastest time attack EVO X out there that has never been to a car show. You built your car to run in the b16 class that rivals type R with bolt on's. There's a big gap between you two. There's no need to be mad at me. Because from the outside your car look like a bone stock EG hatch that's dropped. Compare your car to that green EG that was posted. You will know the difference.




I think it's safe to say you misread something I wrote and got really defensive quick. I never said he had to beg. When I said he would have a hard time getting in it wasnt because of his qualifications. If you would have read what I wrote, I said it was because he's already been featured before. But because the mag he was in went out of business....you never know.

The sloppy seconds reference was to how the industry works, if you've been featured before, unless you've gone through some major changes, it's very hard to be featured again in another mag. But of course you didnt know that, so you just jumped on my throat assuming I insulted the car by calling it sloppy seconds.


Begging to get into a mag....you said that. I never once said he had to. I believe no one should. What you assume I said or meant doesnt mean it's true





Hello? Isnt that what I'm doing? I dont know the guy, I dont know how to get a hold of him. You seem to know him very well, yet all you do is get so defensive about how he dont need to beg to be in a mag. But I'm the one reaching out to him right? :thumbsdown:


Different strokes for different folks people. If this is not the thing for you, just X out of the thread and dont waste your time on it.

Unless you know someone who is in good with a particular mag, it is hard to get a car into one. I have had 4 cars out of the 1000s I have worked on get into magazines, and the only way they got in is because I know someone who is a writer for the particular mag (a muscle car mag) and they just happened to want a particular car to feature.

The magazines have a idea of what they want, and thats what they want, if your car is not that, then too bad, better luck next time, dont get butt hurt

maybe a mod could keep this thread open and delete all the BS posts keep it on topic.

I do have plans to do some cosmetics such as the tsuru front end, sunny front bumper, CF hood with an evo 8 vent, and definetly the tint done is one of the biggest. But other than that the body is staying the way it is. Maybe eventually a paint job in midnight blue

Yeah. It was all before I worked there, but my friends that work with him before I started there were telling me about it.

I'm pretty sure the Motech was installed by him. He is a electrical engineer and VP of our company.The pictures in the mag are alot differrent. Car now has a bigger motor setup, bigger turbo. He got that AIM Strata unit now where the gaugues were, bunch of shit that I don't even know. He trailored the car to texas and him and a friend tuned it.

Guerillah or DrewDown could tell more about the car than I could.
