        Getting back in: The Saga Continues

        Did y'all think I would just let this thread float away into the mists of forgotten threads? HA! Time for an update:

        I sold my beater of an Angel to Sinistarr, who by the way is an excellent trader, and got $325 out of it. Then the spending spree began. All my equipment is getting to me as I type. Tunaman is building me my mag, hopefully he has gotten my MO, which consists of the following:

        ALL BLACK
        X-valve
        ULE CF Body
        Regular Mag Rail
        Intelliframe
        Foregrip
        Stock barrel

        All for drum roll please...drum roll please...ok no drum roll, $465 SHIPPED! That is an incredible deal considering that used those mag with those specs go for near $500! If you need a mag, PM the man, of the Tuna kind.

        Also, Ebay is a great thing. I won a bid of all the equipment I need excluding pants and jersey. This means Dye pads, both knee and elbow, masks, harness with pods, VL2000, lanyards, gear bag, all totaling up to about $200 worth of stuff for $100 shipped. Good deal if you ask me.

        So far everything is a near go. But I need two things to get my ballin on. Apparel. Jerseys can wait, but paintball pants are a must. I cannot seem to find a good pair of $20 used pants. I mean I can indulge and just pay full price for a new pair, but again Im on a budget. So AO, anyone know any good sites with pants cheap? Preferably JT's?

          Datsun- The reason I love the Datsuns is very simple. I admire their unibody construction, the curves, the hatchback design, I6, perfect balance, great suspension and handling. Even though it wasn't the most powerful car, like a Z28 Camaro or BOSS Mustang, it will kill all of them in the twisties. I was already in love with it just for the looks, but what got me sold is the price and performance, sort of like a mag. Mags can run with electro's toe for toe, well my dad's friend used to race them against Porshe, Ferrari, and Vette's and he kept up with them the whole time on the track. With triple Webers, small head work, and a 5 speed transmission, you can get 250hp to the rear wheels. Call me crazy, but I'd rather take a Datsun over any new import sport sedan if it were done right. Like all good cars, it has a very interesting story. Mr. K looks at America, sees that the small import cars aren't all that popular, designs a sports car for a VERY affordable price that incoporates all great European sports cars and the Vette with a bargain price, and becomes a hit with a following basically in an instant.

          The RB30DETT is basically a bored over RB27DETT to make it a 3.0L. RB is the series name for the engine, the 30 stands for 3.0L like 27 stands for 2.7L like 26 stands for 2.6L, the D stands for dual overhead cams, E for electronic fuel injection, and TT for, of course, twin turbo.I sound like a geek.
          I used to own an 83 280Z. Steel grey with a burgandy interior. I bought it from a guy who lived in Florida.
          Drove it around for a few weeks and met up with a few people who tooled on Z cars. They had loads of extra parts left over from their past upgrades. I bought a big blue Turbo can't rememer the name , wanna say allison but not positive. Got some exhaust , and a few other goodies along with some head work and a new fuel puter and had one of the guys put it all in.
          Well everything was awesome at first. This thing was a muscle car EATER. It was absolutely STUPID fast. I hadn't even done the suspention yet (I liked the tuck when it took off) and it handled perfect.Great the way it steered with the gas pedal.
          Well soon after the upgrade it all changed. Every time I got hard in the gas the car would pull one way and when I let off it would pull the other.
          I took it to a shop thinking it was nothing more than a bad idler arm or something. The mechanic came back out and asked me to come back. As I was walking back he told me I needed to call a wrecker to come get my car , that they wouldn't even allow me to drive it home. The beams(frame)in the front right behind the wheels coming out of the firewall were completly rotted with rust. The new power I had added to the car had cracked the drivers side. There was litterally metal missing from the frame .
          It was so hard to find a new body to put all my parts into at the time. This was right around the same time Nissan was buying them back for their restoration projects a few years back. I could have bought a good whole car for the price of a straight rust free body.
          I sure miss it.....

            Good to see you coming back! My suggestion is this. Eat Roman Noodles for an entire year... at 15 cents a meal you cant go wrong! When you go out with friends do things with them that dont cost money... Examples like breaking things, wrestling each other and so on.

                Sound advice from a fellow Guy.

                Hell, you cant go wrong with ramen. There are creative ways to fix it, if you get tired of straight ramen soup. Plus its perhaps the most economically sound meal. Aside from hunting... but that takes patience and animals.

                Budget everything not used for necessary bills (ie: ramen noodles and cheap women) and throw it at paintball.

                    Thru it all, I cant help asking;

                    can I buy that LX Kit? I need it badly.

                    Good to see your back, that was quite a good read. Ever think of becoming a descriptive writer? lol.

                      Dude... that's my life. How else do you think I can afford playing paintball every weekend and sometimes during the weekday?
