i have a question 4 u guys n don't feel like openin a new thread..i've been in search for a import for the last 6 months..plan was to get a 2dr wrx to get back to racing..then i got w/ my girl and she made me want a bubble (yea shes into cars too

lol) but after seen the dimes on sat..made me want to get another truck..so been thinkin of gettin a 2dr blazer and baggin it and going crazy w/ the system.
It'll keep me off the street 4m racing and i'd still have something to play w/..ex. drag it on 495! lol..and get pulled over haha

nycblazer96 · 03-17-2008, 11:31 PM

BEFORE

AFTER

crazy98jimmy · 03-17-2008, 11:34 PM

vivalahammer- yea i've seen some pretty sick lookin ones that made me drool

nycblazer96- bro i've seen previous post you've made..do you have a hook up w/ insurance and totaled cars? It actually doesn't look too bad..i do body work so i wouldn't mind buyin a blazer thats hit. Would just make the project a whole lot better
About the rice burners..yea most are all noise and no go..but some are pretty fast..theres a guy out here (LI) driving a bubble pushin 335whp..boosted not bad for a 4 banger..but i've always had truck so idk

nycblazer96 · 03-17-2008, 11:39 PM

i have a little hook up on insurance wrecked cars, soo far i've been lucky the prices are a little up there but to me its worth it since i dont have a dealers licence

nycblazer96 · 03-17-2008, 11:50 PM

there's the problem. i get these cars from down south, north & south carolina, atlanta georgia. i pay to get them transported up here to new york. the most i've paid for transport from atlanta, ga was $500 to me it was not bad. if i where to go it'll almost cost the same.

ZEENYC · 03-18-2008, 11:53 AM

I'd say go with the blazer...still tons of fun, a head turner if done right and you can still lurk on b20vtec forums just for the hell of it!

crazy98jimmy · 03-18-2008, 11:46 PM

Brian- thanks bro but my "budget" for the truck itself is like $3,000...all i care about is the drivetrain..the rest i could care less b/c i do body work.
