hey i was wondering wat all u astinaholics reckon i should do with my car
the history I've had this car for about 2 years spent about $3000 on clutch, axles, replacing body kits <rear enders>, re-wiring, air con. so this cars been through a lot. now the gear box n diff is on the way out.
i have a very car pro family in other words lots of clubsports, skylines, Silvia's and the few worked v8's in the past. should i sell the car n buy something new , or keep it and mod so it could keep up or beat any of the above cars.

Mate, you'll spend the same cash (or more) on any of the other cars you've listed just keepign them on the road. Sure the 323/Astina is a harder car to get street cred with, but it's still a great platform for fun and driving wise it's a lot better than people give credit.
If your hearts into the 323 keep it, if you want to fit in with a expected stereo type for your friends etc get a Dilvia or whatever becuase at the end of the day lifes too short and monies to expensive to be putting it into thingos you're not keen on ;)

I think you should buy an MX5 and drop in a BPT. Then you'll be able to out handle and out power the rest of your family
:D

the car is prob worth more to u then wat its worth in money..and always potential there...
but on other hand sometimes people like to start over fresh with new car n diffrent mods,and driving feel etc..
but yeah im more to the side of keeping it n go out n shock a few people;)

U like being sideways, dont ya? Just get a cheap gazelle or something for that. Even the 85 celicas are pretty good. Spend like a grand on that, weld the diff and bob's your uncle. But keep the astina coz it will be worth while in the end. Don't know what you're into but I always enjoy a good hill run from time to time and the astinas are brilliant for that.
