Back To Stock.....

well guys, i finally put her back to stock. everything is off and back to(what used to be) normal.
i now really need an alignment, and all my struts are gone! every single one click and pop.



all i know is next time, i'm gonna spend the money and get me a car that does all i want it to do(power, handling, luxury). i will never mod a car again.

I almost agree with Zaid when I was thinking about engine swapping mine with a K20 or K22. And, I thought wait a minute, why don't I just trade it in for a RSX-S instead of doing a swap? Than I thought, I enjoy the hell out of the process of making a pretty good car into a freakin' great car so I didn't trade. But, Zaid, I certainly know where you are coming from, it makes sense. What are you going to get now?

Yes, Alex, I mean K24, the RSX-S stock. Sorry about that, I have twos stuck in my head and usually have multiples stuck in my head, don't ask! The RSX stock is the K20 and I have been told that the K24 would fit as well even though the K20 is just about flush.

dragin - i dont have any issues with the car aside from me getting tired of it.

i plan on getting a 4x4 silverado. i need something to carry the quad around. and i get to have any GM vehicle for 2k under, no questions asked. that deal is though GMAC.

i also have a hook up through a BMW dealer in LA. i can prolly get a 01 or 02 3series for low 20k's.

if all else fails..... which i have a feeling it will, is probabaly late 90's integra and a crotch rocket.
we'll see.




oh, and you hear people all the time talking about how each mod they put on makes their car so much better....try it the other way around. you really dont feel anything with the mods you put on. its all placebo.

Zaid, DAMN IT!!! Most of us know your last statement is true, but, LET US KEEP FOOLING OURSELVES HERE ON THAT ONE! HUSH!!! It is true for the most part unless you invest A LOT of money in mods, then, it is not the placebo effect. The rest of the cheapy mods do a little something something, but, not much, they just make us feel better.

I agree about modifying cars....it's better to get it the way you want it, when you buy it. Too bad there's not too much out there around 15K, so I guess we all had to do a little something to our cars. Now that I'm pulling in more money, I was actually thinking of trading it in for an Altima 3.5SE....if they weren't so damned ugly from the back, I probably would.
