Your current car :
1988 CRX Si
Color:
black
Miles on it:
164000
around 32000 on motor
For much?
$500
Problems so far?
-Tons of little shit right when I bought it
You could probably call what I really payed for it to get it on the road the initial $500 plus about $800.
-I've probably put $600 into repairs since then, most expensive was the upper ball joints going bad, 2 control arms cost $300. I can't even remember everything I've done.
How much money did you put in it so far?
-$1400 for repairs and upkeep
-$3000 for the swap and related things (see sig)
-$35 for a test pipe
What do you plan to do with it in the future?
-rear disc conversion
-cat back and header
-wheels and tires, rota slipstreams, have to research the tires
-chassis stiffening, polyurethane bushings
-body work and paint, needs it
-seats would be nice, driver's side is junk
-Also would like the get the transmission rebuilt eventually, it grinds third a lot and I would like a JDM ITR final gear put in.
-And whatever other little shit I can come up with.
Why did you buy it?
-good chassis
-good aftermarket support
-I like Hondas
-cheap
-small and light, I hate big cars
-Sports car, 2 seats, no frills, I hate frilly stuff in cars
-I will not drive an automatic, Honda manuals are really nice from the couple I've tried
What do you like the most about your car?
-above stuff
-fun to drive
-LSD
-DOHC VTEC, very flexible, power when I want it
-It just feels right when I drive it :dunno:
What do you dislike about your car?
-I don't like how they cheaped out on alot of stuff factory, most of the modifications I am doing are simply putting on it what it should have had factory. I guess they have to make compromises.
-Seating position is too high.
-don't like 4 turns lock to lock
- bad paint, they always rust around the rear fenderwells
What other cars have you previously owned or do you current own?
none
What (new or used) cars would you potentially buy in a near future?
-NSX, hoping to be able to finance an early model year
-s2000, same deal as above
I don't know about near future though
