Re: new member, first car, many questions!
Well is this a car you want to race or have as a daily driver? Just risk more dents and scratches...
Re: new member, first car, many questions!
I finally got it back on saturday
Now i owe dad about 4k, but ill slowly start upgrading, in the spring ill do the brakes since theyre going anyway, and headlights since mine suck, ohh and dad brought me an old airhorn out of a ferrari to put in it
Re: new member, first car, many questions!
yeah, im trying too, this morning on the way to school some moron almost hit me...i guess between the color and the fact that i had the lights on, it wasw kinda hard to see me...oh well it wouldhave been his fault, but i sped up so he wouldnt hit me...now im looking for parts to start doing some work on it
Re: new member, first car, many questions!
well i think ive changed my mind let again...after looking at b18c1 swaps ive decided i should sell this car, and get a 92-95 hatch with the swap already done, im gonna wait til march to list the car for sale since ill be 18 then and anyother car will be in my name, not dads....but if anyone here has any interest to buy it pm me, im in nj, or same thing if you have a swapped hatch to sell in nj/ny/pa...looking for around 3k cash for my car or trade for a swapped hatch, +some cash leaving my pocket depending on the cars condition...this really kills two birds with one stone...gets me a hatch like i want, and the engine i want, and i dont have to save much for said engine...lemme fix that to three birds with one stone
Re: new member, first car, many questions!
Well i think in the long run that way might be cheaper... But i had another idea, save get a hatch and build it while driving the sedan and then i wont be dieing on insurance on the hatch while im building it...And then i wont need to worry about daily driving while its being built

Re: new member, first car, many questions!
well i found a buyer for my sedan and found a 93 hatch and a local guy with an integra b18c1 with 80k thats he wants to sell, hes got it in a car now but said he'll sell the engine and full swap out of it and said hed even help me put it in the hatch, and im gonna see if i could also get the brakes from it, he wants $1900 for the swap ill prob give him $2k or more for the whole thing, and the brakes since he'll also help me put it in, now i gotta start a thread about this for all my questions about the motor...
