Howdy everyone! Long story short, I had Nissans for the last 8 years, had an '89 Maxima GXE and a '99 Altima GLE. December 6th timing chain in the Altima snapped and I went car hunting. I've always liked Solaras, and I stumbled on this 2000 Solara in Diamond White Pearl with 86k. It has the 5SFE motor, which is very smooth and it runs great! Nice little 2.2L! It's in awesome shape, I can't believe how clean it is! Haven't done much so far, put Silverstars in, but I've got Philips Extreme Power bulbs on order right now to replace them. Did a K&N drop filter and new OEM floormats (interior pic is from when I brought the car home), and that's about it, just waiting on my tax return to replace the stock radio. Will be looking through FAQ's like crazy! Interested in TRD parts for sure!
