| Well as of 11:30 this evening the new toy arrived home safe and sound. People who can't drive in winter held us up a bit, but we made for a fun roadtrip. Drove about four hours there and then four more back overall to get the car. Not to mention I (and cooper) was able to knock them down another 1200 bones on the price after driving the car and noticing more flaws. Overall I'm very happy with the car. And with the extra cash I don't have to sell the sedan and rock my minty rust free toy in the winter. The only flaw it really had was the weatherstiping on the hatch and winshield need touched up, but shouldn't be more than a hundred bones. It's got small dings here and there, but still with it being an 01 and only having 79k and being a one owner car I cant complain, especially since the original asking price was 7400 and I left out the door, tax and fees for 5k. I initially started to walk away from the original price, but driving that far for them to move a car was worth it.
It's got coilovers of some sort, lower control arms, camber kit up front, APexi' N1 Exhaust, which is really quiet I might add, and some jank-ass intake.
I'll have pics up tomorrow. What's to come? Nasty All-Motor Buildup? Boosted car? Who knows. Lets just say it'll hold its own this summer | |

I figure'd I'd drive it a little bit before I put it up. Don't want the typical honda rust on this car-ever. The eg can keep rotting-I"ll find it's replacement eventually but just not now. | |

| When do I get to see the beauty? I like it. Although it's crying for the older front-end swap. I'm not a fan of the 4-headlight setup as much. Also, this definitely seems more like your type of vehicle. I just couldn't associate you with that mustang at all lol. | |

I just couldn't associate you with that mustang at all lol. I dig the bug-eyes. JDM front end's are too overplayed and I personally think they make the car look boring. I would like to do a rhd conversion eventually but honestly it's not worth it to me. I'd rather find an oem one and import it from japan. They did make bugeye's in japan from 94-95 which makes them really rare. If you have ever seen true life: I"m a streetracer, the guy they follow has a rhd 95 integra with the bugeyes which is becomming very rare. I love this a lot more than the mustang. Handles a lot better but it does have over a grand in suspension in it. What you see appearance wise is how the car is going to sit for a while. I'm polishing the wheels once I get moved into my new place, and then doing a full brake rebuild. I plan on autocrossing and doing some roadcourse stuff, so I need to be able to stop as well. | |

just moving to a different part of lafayette. Really quiet neighborhood (until I get there) and I've already met a few of my new neighbors. I hate not having a garage and not being able to work on my car. I need to re-do my valve cover and polish my wheels, and it's impossible to do this in an apartment and I'm not going to waste an entire weekend at my parents garage just to polish wheels | |
