Thuener will become famous soon enoughThuener will become famous soon enough
i bought myself my car for my 21st birthday, before that, i had a 94 voyager, (which was awesome). But my car came with a system, i/h/e + full coilovers + suspension minus strut bars. The car had 93k miles on it and i purchased it for $9,000.

i have payments, 150 a month, +637 for insurence every 6 + a girlfriend so modding hasn't really gone anywhere aside from a momo shift **** and robbear lights + rims + tint

plans include a k20 swap

i got mine when i was 18, i've gone through 6 subs, 4 sets of 6x9s, 2 install kits for the system, blew up a cap, 9 amps, 5 decks, tail lights, headlights, a hood, fender, front upper core support, but for now i'm happy, ending result is infinity kappas components in the doors, with 6.5s and kenwood tweets in the kickpanels, infinity kappa perfect sub in a sealed box with a door to the sub, with a pioneer 800wrms amp pushing the sub, a blaupunkt 500w 2 channel amp running the front speakers and a lightning audio 450 watt amp pushing the 6x9s, with a clarion dxz855mp deck with my laptop wired into the aux input (with a custom preamp thats got dual opamps that split into singles, so double amplification) and a mount for the laptop that completely folds up so u could never tell it was there. Exterior mods? well cf hood, rear sedan handles so no door locks, shaved trunk (H and lock), gunmetal headlights and smoked tails. Other interior mods are, power windows, locks, and changing the carpet on the doors to silver vinyl, i also put the vinyl in the rear (which on a 2 door is a F UCKING BITCH). Now comes rims, lip kit, drop and selling crack out of my trunk to pay for everything.

I was 18 when I bought it, which was a year ago in exactly 2 weeks. I am now 19.

what I've done? - AEM CAI, strut tower bar, rear strut bar and Alpine deck (after killing the stock one - apparently it didnt like my cds ).

I'm waiting till later on this summer to start the serious mods, I have a credit card to take care of, and then my liscence

drive_fast_dail has a little shameless behaviour in the past
I got my 2002 EX coupe last summer used and I was 20. It replaced my 95 saturn with about 130k miles that was using more oil than gas at that point. Decided to go for a honda rather than fix the seals on that car. I put new rims in tires on it within a week, because I hate how flimsy steel rims are. Past that ive just been recovering fincial and going to start with the suspension once i get the money.
