Re: Nissan Pickup with Turbo motor??? Seen him?
hey DC/DC thank for the nice comments, acually shortly after i bought the turbo i relized that think was a POS, the whole SDS engine management was as untunned and wired wrong, the intercooler set was screwed up pipe were porrly Migged and leaked boost, the manifold was trash and kept cracking, ended up repalcing the who set up. With in a month i had to replace the whole rear suspension which we rear halfed the whole car with a drag ladder bar set up. The rear suspension that was on there when i bought it from you was trash, cheap steal tubing holding it together that was all stick welded which fell apart which just driving. As for this wreak you speak of, all that happened was the oil filter housing broke off and oiled the road and casued me to slide into a ditch. which only bent the passenger side suspension, no body damage nothing else. So if you dont know the facts dont say anything
Also this isnt my screen name and i dont post on here, i just came here to set things stright, also that truck is still around sold it to a friend in MD

That's fine John, and my post was not meant to be a jab at you. I'm sorry you took it that way. You need to realize that I did nothing to that truck (which several people on this board that know me can vouch for) between the time I bought it and the time I sold it with the exception of change the oil, change the thermostat, and fix an electrical issue with the fuel system. So, in essence, you bought it as I had bought it. I'm sorry that you had problems with the truck, but please don't blame me for things I didn't do, and didn't know about.

I don't understand why buyers blame the seller for their ignorance? If you don't know enough about a truck such as this one to know if it's quality or not, you have no business buying it. OR, if you insist on buying something you know nothing about at least bring someone who has a brain with you to check it out.
In the end it was YOU who gave the guy the money becuase you ASSUMED it was everything you thought it was. He didn't hold a gun to your head and make you buy the damn thing. Stop whining.

Anyway, as you said, my truck scared the crap out of most people. I'd pull up next to other imports, let off the gas, and they'd almost wreck. It was fun.
I kick myself in the pants every so often for selling it, but at the time I had it ~2 years ago, I couldn't afford the work that was required to make it more streetable.
Here is a pic of it about 3 weeks before I sold it:
