Looking to get into the Fd scene. My Gf has an rx8, learned alot on it the past two years, from being in charge of maintenance and work.

right now i have an 04 350z (dd)
and a 1991 3000gt vr4 (project)

Better clear some things up,

I am Cole Parker, from knoxville, Tennessee, i am a real person lol.

 

oh and , better to buy with mods, or buy pretty stock?

are the 13b from the Fds as prone to failure as the Rx8s or more "reliable", thanks

 

Welcome to the forums!
When considering the reliability of an FD, don't forget they're 20 years old. If you want to mod the hell out of one, I'd recommend you buy one that isn't completely stock. There aren't many good stock examples left. Also, I'd spend a lot of time reading through the FAQ. Furthermore, a 350z or an RX8 are much cheaper to own. You should look at the initial cost of an FD as the "buy in" price. I bought mine for 12k and in the last year have put at least that much money in to the car. Look around on the forum at all the build threads and you'll see how common that is. I'm not trying to talk you out of it, but you do need to have a good idea of what you're getting yourself in to when you buy an FD.
