When will this white hell end so I dont have to clean my vehicles everytime I take them for a drive because SALT & SAND.
Any advice for a manual newfag on hill starts? Tried it in a friend's honda, don't know what model it was. Learned manual in about 3 hours of side road travel, no issues except for starting on an incline. Had to use the e-brake for anything over about 20 degrees, mostly getting stuck halfway up an onramp to get off the highway. No stalls though!
>people behind me are literally 10 inches away
>no room to roll back
>>14724813
Just gotta go faster. That's how I learned it last year. Left on clutch right on brake, then immediate move right to gas and release the clutch to the grab point give it throttle to minimize rolling.
Also if you see anybody coming up behind you while you're stopped on a hill just roll back a bit to give them a hint. Usually works for me.
1999 Honda crv with a 5 speed manual as a daily driver.
How can I spend $2-3k to make it a little more capable on the highway? It quickly runs out of gear above 65 mph and the engine is always gutless. Better damping over bumps would be nice too.
HARDMODE: no outwardly visible mods. No loud performance exhausts or other ricey mods. Must be completely reliable after mods.
85crx si post me up braj
Fixed it. Still needs to settle because we took apart the whole thing. The retainer ring that goes around the C clip was put on wrong. It was above the spring seat instead of between the seat and the C clip. The driver side is like that too but I'll mess with that on a clearer day.
>>14725380
>It quickly runs out of gear above 65 mph
It can definitely do more than 65 mph. Fucking floor it faggot. Old hondas are slow as fuck unless you rev that thing
>>14725440
Hell yeah
>>14725380
Pull the engine
Get the proper oil galley run in the block
Buy a B16A head
Slap that bad boy on
Get a proper tune
>>14725960
Would the puny ass pretend-AWD system shit bricks from the increased power?

>>14725724
looks decent. any plans to do some body work in the future?
>>14726181
Yeah it'll probably be one of the last things I start on. I'm almost to that point though. Wanting to do the AC next then probably a new steering wheel.
>>14725991
No, if yours has the RT4WD it'll hold up fine, if you want you can put a OBX LSD in the rear that's meant normally for a FWD B trans, at least that's what I've heard from Civic Wagon forums, there RT4WD is the same as yours and they have rt4wd wagons with over 300hp that haven't broken the system, remember that it's a viscous diff that send power to the rear, so it'll work on launch and if it senses the front wheels slipping
Anyone here own an integra Gsr? I'm really looking into getting one to replace my 95 rs lol
>>14718078
So I'm gonna go see this car for sure tomorrow, if if I can actually fit in it and it's as mechanically sound as the owner makes it out to be, I'm buying it.
>>14727051
Do it. It looks awesome.
Are you gonna DD it?
>>14727067
It's gonna be a weekend car. With my job I;m usually doing 100+ city miles a work day, would rather put those miles on my Hyundai.
If I get it I'm probably gonna do a '84/'85 Accord front brake conversion because the OEM brakes look humorously small.
>>14727091
turbo it fampai
>>14727113
seconding
>>14727113
>>14727120
Only turbo kit I know for the EK1 engine was one Jackson Racing sold in the 70s/80s that is impossible to find and apparently blew head gaskets. The only mod I think I'm gonna do to the engine is install the Weber carb.
I don't know if a turbo set up from a City Turbo would work with the ER CVCC engine they came with.
>>14727242

>>14727252
>custom fab everything needed to install
>>14727270
You're pretty much staring that down no matter what you choose, but since your trying to keep the budget low inwould probably look for an F20B, I've seen them go for around 1.5k, it revs to 8k, has 200hp/145tq, transmission has factory LSD, 11:1 comp ratio, basically a destroyed H22A
>>14727286
*destroked
>>14727286
>>14727294
I'm buying this car because I want to learn how to do more than basic maintenance for not an assload of money. For now the EK1 is staying unless it grenades.
>>14727321
There are similar turbos that COULD work, but specifics on what those are idk.
>>14724777
Why the fuck are people plastidipping their gas cover, it looks so stupid
>>14724649
Lol how did that happened though?
>>14724734
At least ride comfort is better than 15's
>>14727719
It was assembled wrong. That silver ring inside the spring is supposed to be below the spring seat slipped over the C clip that adjusts ride height so it doesn't pop out like it did.
>>14725414
Write /hg/ on its snow for proof. Don't be a fag
>>14726245
Imagine your Integra with 30 more hp

My car has developed an oil leak that was bad enough to send a moderate amount of smoke out from my hood. Probably gonna get a new valve cover. I imagine one of the po's just put rtv on it and called it good.
>>14728995
Just took sleeping pills because I gotta get an alignment in the morning. Might order pic related before I crash though. Might just use a fuse adapter instead for the camera though. Much cheaper and I don't have to do much wiring. Got a radar detector from a friend too so I gotta make that fit.
Think I'll have to ditch the plug that lights up the pizza sign.
>>14727565
its not plastidipped its just a carbon fiber sticker
How much shit mounted to my windshield is too much?
>>14729850
I'm not sure. I'm gonna have three things on my dash eventually.
>wireless charging phone mount
>radar detector
>dash cam
The hardest part is trying to avoid a mess of cables. Probably wire the cam to the fuse box.
Is your car this happy?
>>14730537
It's happy but not THAT happy.
>>14728500
Will do fãm...
>>14728793

Doing my alignment and I expect them to try and sell me tires because of wear.
>no
Car will be straight for the first time ever.
>>14730537
I think so
>they thought my subframe brace adjusts camber
Who hired these guys?
>>14730585
>>14730625
Lol where is this?
>>14731065
Firestone Complete Auto Care. They have a good deal on lifetime alignment. Everything is straight as an arrow now.

>>14731699
I'm burning up so much right now. I gotta get started on that AC before it gets hotter.
Would a 98-00 civic hatchback be a good first car to get into the car scene with? Are they easy to work on and a good platform to learn off of? Also any things to watch out for in general?
>>14731699
also are those rear view mirrors worth it? Do you get better visibility with them?
>>14732104
Yeah they're great. I got into the car scene with my 94 hatch and people love it despite the shape it's in. Real easy to work on.
>>14732104
That is an excellent car to get, very easy to work on and big aftermmarke, make sure to get a good anti-theft system though.
I'm not even into Hondas.
>>14732122
>>14732124
Around what should I pay for one? There are very few 6th gen hatches in my area and they're all going for around 2-3k for ones in okay condition. Is that decent?
>>14732205
What's OK condition in your book? Give me an example
>>14732205
I paid $1300 for mine but in the tenth owner and the body miles are real high. Seems like it's about right.
I love EG ass.
I ran over a person last Saturday. That's Donda on the right. AMA I guess
>>14732104
Wink;) mirror pros and cons
+
Increased visibility
Cool points
You can put stickers on the back
-
Visors may need to be removed unless you make a custom adapter or buy the glass mounting adapter
No dim/night mode
Vibrates if you don't put the rubber washers from the visors or not buy them
Some cars require you to drill mounting holes for it (you don't need to remove the visors)
Passengers will hit it not on purpose but they will
Reduces visibility for looking up (red lights maybe harder to see when you come to a complete stop
Adjusting is a little inconvenient compared to a factory mirror (requires two hands)
Still on the fence about putting it on my next car/10
>>14732349
I took this picture at like 2 o clock today lol
>>14732743
You what?!
Green text? Manslaughter charge impending?
FUCK THE CAR DRIVES SO GOOD NOW
>still kinda hear that squeak in the rear left area
WHY
>>14732941
drives gud because of the alignment?
maybe it's the hinges of the seats, try spraying them with wd40 and the seat belt female ends too
>>14732800
Gonna take a while because work but greentext incoming.
Early TL;DR, lady was crawling across the interstate at night, I hit her but afaik she's alive.
>>14732951
Yeah in combination with the new suspension. Used to be rough as hell.
That might be the cause of the squeak.
>>14732972
>crawling across the interstate
Holy shit they're retarded.

If I could draw a diagram of the incident I could explain it so much more easily, but I'm on mobile so I'm gonna have to ninja wield these meme arrows

>ohshit(1).exe
Not much else to say from there. I got out and checked on her and everyone else involved, called 911, spoke to police/paramedics, all that shit.
The whole time I'm freaking the fuck out and crying like a bitch because I almost killed a person. Thankfully she was moving and talking right after I got out, but god damn, her leg was fucked up, that was honestly some shit I wish I could unsee. she got sent to the hospital, and I haven't gotten an update on her since.
>>14733270
I haven't heard anything from investigators as to why she was crawling in the middle of the road. What they did tell me is that the Mazda and Chevy were parked because of some road rage incident. Police told me I'm not likely to face any charges.
>pic related: the Mazda
>>14733270
>>14733304
Damn I'd be crying like a bitch too. It's crazy they were stopped in the middle of a high speed road over stupid shit.
>>14733270
>>14733304
>all this over road rage
>>14733347
>>14733348
I know it wasn't my fault at all, but the reality that I fucking ran over a person with my car and how close I came to manslaughter fucks with my head ever now and then
>>14733270
>>14733304
I'm not sure if I'd cry but it'd be tears of anger for sure
and Shingu I'm pretty sure we'd kill her by dragging her since we're lowered and no ABS
>>14733388
honestly I think my ride height is partially what saved her
>>14733387
Yeah stuff like that would stick with me forever. I still remember the armed robbery at my old gas station job like it was yesterday.
>>14733388
For sure my brakes are good but not interstate speed good.
>>14733387
I know what you did last spring
AND WE'RE BACK FUCKIN A
>>14733270
If they hit you with any charges, that'd of be rancid shit. Who in their right mind would crawl in the middle of the interstate?
This is why I'm buying a dashcam.
I know its not a Si or stock 90s Honda but i just bought this 12 Civic. Yes its auto tragic but finding a stick shift that hasn't been modded to shit or crashed proved too difficult.
>>14733561
+1 for dash cam. Got one sitting in my Amazon cart right now.
>>14733561
I'm actually kind of mad bc I was discussing buying a dashcam the night before the incident, could've really used it. Just goes to show that the sooner you get o be the better, you never know when you'll need it
>>14733611
You don't have to lie about your wife cucking you into buying a
>nice, safe, new Honda Civic
>you like Hondas, right anon?

So I went and saw this car today. Guy drove it to the meeting spot, paint was what to expect for 30 so years of Texas heat, interior wasnt too bad, car ran fine, drove it around the parking lot, felt normal expect the brakes. Holy shit the brakes felt weak. One problem is the EK1 has a timing belt and the car has about ~211k miles and the current owner hasn't done the timing belt, so thats something that needs to be done if I buy it. I also forgot to check small things like lights, windshield wipers, undercarriage rust, so I need to look at the car again.
I offered $1600, guy says he'll let me know tomorrow but unless someone offers his asking price tomorrow I think it's mine.
>>14733745
Not married nigga. Was gonna get a S2000 but the engine had so much aftermarket shit in it was almost unrecognizable. there was also a 12 Si in my area but Carmax showed an accident with structural damage
got the ends boxed in. coming along.
>>14724631
Ive worked on too many piece off shit acuras to respect honda. I do like their small engines though
>>14733841
love your build m8
keep it up
>>14733858
Did you work in an Acura dealership?
>>14733757
I told the guy who hit me not to worry about it but he called his insurance on himself and they cut me a check for the repair cost. I guess I was just lucky though.
>>14733972
Did you get it fix it though?
>>14733976
Yeah I fixed it to my liking.
>>14733972
What a nice guy.
>right wheel still creaking when I turn it
It must be the lower ball joint or something.
>>14734008
oh you nigger I thought you already replaced it
Today I saw a lowered (almost stanced) older miata with a hoonigan sticker along with some others ones on the back, and some distasteful rims. I rolled up next to him at 55mph. He looked like what I think a standard /o/tist would look like, and he had his mom in the car too. I waved at him, downshifted and kinda challenged him, but he didn't really seem like he wanted to race but still slowed down to 40 with me. I was going to start honking but he just took off and I started off a second or 2 after he was going. I started pulling on him and we got up to maybe 55 or and then I was slowly getting ahead of him. We hit some traffic afterwards and he wouldn't look at me, but his mom did and smiled. So, I guess I won? I would think a miata would beat my 95 dx. Maybe he wasn't going full throttle...
It was entertaining none the less.
>>14734071
How does your DX look? and no I wouldn't count that as a win
>>14734084
It looks dirty, covered in pollen a little rust near the wheel. It's that bluish gray color and a coupe.
>>14734067
I replaced the upper but haven't touched the lower.
>>14734110

She's gonna be filled. I can always stop using the topper plug and just run it dark. Just gonna use a fuse tap for the dash cam. If it ever comes to that I can just buy an external plug attached to the battery and a bigass extension for it and run it to the back of the car just for the topper.
>>14735262
Gee Shingu 4 plugs?

It would if the cabin doesn't have the outward visibility that an EG or EK or EF Civic has
I completely removed the interior of the Integra, and while I did, I found the owners manual. Up next is to remove all the sound deadening and replace the bushings on the manual steering subframe that just came in.

Hey /hg/ am working on my little beater. Am trying to fix my 97s civics Windows I'd figured I'd ask for any specifics. Thanks anons
>>14738353
Every time damn phones
>>14738353
you mean the part # for a new window regulator man?
>>14738353
Power windows? Hahahahaha good luck, regulators and motors bust on them all the time, especially the coupes,it's mainly due to the channels in the doors being absolute shit
>>14738416
motor still works its just misaligned and doesnt close properly
>>14738507
It's those fucking channels, drove me nuts when I had my EM1
>>14738507
If it's anything like EG windows, the window is held on by two bolts.
>>14738521
My channels are pretty stubborn too. Gets hard as fuck to roll down and I have manual windows. I need to lube them up.
Hey /hg/, first time poster, long time Honda driver.
My first car was a 95 odyssey I bought from my parents, my second was an 02 accord I bought from the first owner.
I'm looking at a 1st gen 1980 Honda prelude, 123,000 original miles from 1 owner. Pic of the car look great. No obvious damage, looks like it was really well maintained. Pics of the engine look clean as well. He's asking $3,000 for it.
So I have two questions.
1) is this a fair price for a well maintained 1980 prelude with low mileage for its age?
And 2) how much could future maintenance cost? I assume parts aren't cheap because they are no longer made.
Thanks /o/ and /hg/
>>14738527
Window is held on to the regulator with two bolts, but the channels the travel in are dogshit and if anything happens to the door that would cause them to pinch then all kinds of fuckery happens, that or the inserts cause the windows to not go up and you have to use clear silicone spray in them so the glass will slide
>>14738537
I want your Odyssey
Is this a deal worth wheeling or nah senpai desu baka

RIP to that beautiful car.
A friend of mine back into the hood, fucked up the latch.
A few months later I'm driving home from work and get on the freeway and the latch gives out.
The hood slams back into the windshield. Ruined the hood, breaks the windshield, and nearly collapsed the room
Insurance tells me it won't cover repairs.
Was a terrible weekend, to say the least.
>>14738682
Jesus, why wouldn't they cover it? Because you didn't report what your friend did first? My local JC has some kid riding around in a RA1 with some rims and suspension drop, don't know if anything else was done tho
more progress
>>14738702
The repairs would cost more than the car was worth, they said. This was in 2010.
>>14738758
Fuck them, there's no way
>>14738763
I mean they gave me money to go towards a new car (my 02 accord), but yeah, they basically said I was out of luck.
>>14738782
That sucks, it's hard to find them in decent condition and not found dead in the ghetto
>>14738586
Good price but inconvenience of owning it wouldn't be worth it in the long run.
>>14738756
>>14738746
What's new?
>>14738788
Worth mentioning that the front end needed to be replaced because the damage my friend did made it impossible for the hood to close properly. There was some structural damage to the engine housing as well (if I remember correctly)
I forgot how much the estimate on the repairs was exactly, but it was was quite a lot.
But thanks for the kindness. She was an amazing car.
>>14738834
Oh, you didn't say there was structural damage, no wonder, sorry about the van bro I love them

I fucking knew it.
>>14738947
The fuck you are you goddamn liar
>>14738851
Damn, that's in much better condition than I thought it would be. If I could I'd snag that asap, I've wanted a clean 1st gen for years. From what I've seen $3000 is a pretty fair price for the condition it's in. I cant imagine parts will be easy to find, It's up to you if its worth it.
>>14739069
She's beautiful, right? I fell in love the second I saw her.
Thanks for replying!
I called my local Honda service center and wasn't too concerned with what they were estimating.
Additionally a quote for insurance was a lot a cheaper than I expected.
If all goes well I'll own this car within the week.
Thanks /hg/!!
>>14739751
good luck m8
Got the sides strengthened now, all I need is to add the poly again and the paint booth will be ready. I have a bit of prep to do yet but I should get to painting in 3> days.
>>14738756
still love the car. will/have you dyno'd it? What have you got for internals?
>>14737287
you'd be surprised how many you can fit in his lil girl.
>>14739751
no worries. if it all goes well you should post a pic of the car for the collage.
>>14740572
I'm really liking this project you got going on m8
>>14733270
Thats nothing, I was driving my car behind some lady going in a 45 on a winding road, the lady had a heart attack floored it and slammed into a tree. I tried to help her but I just ended up holding her as she died.
>tfw want this
It has EVERYTHING and my seatbelts are half gray and all ruined.
>>14738746
electrical tape?
>>14741000
Price is fair but
>$66 for shipping
>>14741226
Yeah it's from Lithuania. Still not a bad deal considering all the pieces that are included. Same vendor has a set of only the seatbelts for $36 and $57 shipping. My current seatbelts piss me off because they lock up way too easily and don't even really retract half the time.
so today someone took my integra and stole my wheels and tires.
i thought it would never happen to me
fucking assholes i had stock everything.
:(
>>14741269
Yeeeezus, where was this
>>14741269
Damn I hate that shit. People are the worst.
>>14741000
Then buy it, that's the best price I've ever seen for an interior set
>>14741280
Overhere in San Francisco.
i slept over my girlfriends house, woke up to move it to the other side of the street before 2 hour parking and the car wasnt there.
there was already 2 squad cars on the street, apparently another car had been reported stolen. The other guy got his fucking miata back scotch free, i guess luck is just not on my side.
>>14738002
You don't want to remove all the sounded deadening my ep3 is Damn near deafening inside with the windows up at full WOT
>>14741287
Yeah I bought a cheap set of seatbelts before when I was stuck with the four point harnesses the car came with and they were shit out the box.
Honda dealers do replace them for free but ONLY if they were the original belts with no accident history. Mine didn't even have belts when I bought the car.
>>14741263
Well in that case cop when budget is comfy enough
Just wanted to share I got in the physical therapist assistant program at my college. 2 more years of school and I should be making some dough. Depression's now gone guise. /blog
>>14741300
Is the integra in the collage?
Fuck man this is why we can't have nice things or ultimately world peace.
>>14741379
Yeah I'll make a cash deposit tomorrow and buy it. My tax return has been a huge help in doing what I've been wanting to do with the car since I got it. Hasn't even been a year yet and I've accomplished more than I ever thought I would. Maybe I'll finish before I hit my one year of ownership. Aside from the body damage of course.
Congrats nigga.
>>14741308
Holy fuck that is terrifying I do not trust those cheap belts
>>14741497
lel yeah I know I took them out as soon as I got actual OEM belts in the mail. I was stuck with using them for a while though. Was really annoying to strap them on every time I got in the car and once they're on I couldn't reach for anything.
>>14741300
I feel like I've been pretty lucky with my ep3, I've got full Bolton's racing header, stage 2 cam's, 8lb flywheel, buddy club short shifter, hks power exhaust, work emotion reps that are only 15 lbs and I haven't even bought an alarm system lol but live in Canada
>>14741507
Yeah harnesses are annoying as fuck when daily driving. It's one of the only "upgrades" I don't particularly care about that and the fact you need a hans device if you're using them so you don't break your neck from whiplash. I wish I did own takatas they look dope
>>14741509
>Canada
If you live in a white neighborhood you'll be fine
>>14741399
After year 1 of ownership: Repaint and body repairs
You could probably finish before 2nd year of ownership
Thanks m8
>>14741533
I live in Arab town, they think driving stick is below them
>>14741543
Even better since they won't steal your "I'm going to ruin my social status if I'm seen riding in that". Normies are so fucking superficial it's disgusting.
>>14741533
That'll be so expensive. I'll have to see if it's worth doing or not. I at least want to make it 100% functional.
>>14741543
Which city?
>>14741589
Nice try thief
1980 prelude guy here.
Driving 350ish miles to check this gem out today. If I like it the seller is willing to haul it to Vegas in a trailer on Friday.
Wish me luck!
Drive safe /hg/
>>14742671
Good luck m8. Hopefully it's a good buy.
If the anon that had the wrecked Odyssey is still monitoring, pic related is the Ody I spotted
Havent made a penny since december. Bank accounts down to three digits
>43 days till graduation
Hnggg
>>14743509
The struggle is real bro.
>>14743509
>not working the corner to fund EG parts
>>14742777
Thank you :'^(
Really brings back a lot of memories.
>>14742671
Just drove her. Really great ride. Interior is well maintained.
A couple minor things, but nothing major to worry about.
I think I'm going to get it.
>>14743509
What are you gonna be graduating from?
>>14744345
That does not look like it's 36 years old. Was it restored or just that well taken care of? Crazy.
>>14744378
Well taken care of. It's been the weekend driver of the seller (who lives in chandler, AZ) for the past 6 years. It was the seller's uncle's originally and from what he told me, his uncle only took it out to drive it to a dinky casino close to his house in Vegas (where I live, ironically)
36 years old, only a few dings and scratches, and 123k miles.
Mates, I may have a broken spring, I keep hearing a loud thud in the rear when I hit a speedbumb. I only ever notice it with other people in the car though, not when I'm driving alone.
Got any modestly priced springs/coilovers to recommend? I'm not looking to spend alot more than 500 yuropoors.
Also, it's a 96-98, EK3-D15Z6. Thanks in advance!
>>14744408
If you wanna do just springs I'm enjoying my set of Eibach Pro Kit springs. I don't think they cost too much.
>>14744408
Really loud bump sounds more like busted shocks than broken springs, you might just want to get some Koni Yellows
>>14743763
>working on the corner
>not hustling in front of buildings while people that lived above them called the police on you when you're trying to feed your lil girl
You know what I'm sayin'?
>>14744438
Night shift bruh
>>14744445
Are you young but making thousands to work the night shift?
>>14744494
Nah, I didn't read your post the whole way through and just posted a E-40 album before realizing you were quoting Juicy
>>14744506
>he gets the reference
Yes you my nigga famalam
>>14744556
It's all good baby baybay
>>14744574
But did you get the reference in this >>14744494 though?
>>14744590
Not coming to mind t.bh f'am
>>14744609
You still a coo cat
Don't sweat it
>go to Wal-Mart to repair my tire with a screw in it
>job done, go to car
>tire looks dirty
>they put it back on backwards
Come onnnnn. I'm not trying to end up like yellow Miata guy.
>>14744635
Shop floor was probably dirty or the dude working on it had dirty hands. They probably didn't know it was directional and over looked it
>lel-mart
>>14744655
It was dirty from it being on the inside of the car. That's the only reason I noticed it was on backwards. I guess i should specify they're directional since I think they only really deal with poverty all season tires.
Are Isuzu and Rover rebadges allowed in the collage?
>>14744682
Sorry but no.
The Saturn Vue rule prevents Honda powered cars without Honda badges from the factory.
>>14744345
I pulled the trigger! Thanks for the help /hg/
Add her to the collage boys!
>>14745008
Hell yeah man. Congrats. Collagefag will want bread on hood for proof.
Those Arizona plates are kick ass.
Got my dash cam. Gonna run it through the 12V plug for today then hard wire it later maybe.
>>14745045
Then that's what I'll do. Seller is driving it to Las Vegas on Friday. Got him down to $2800 after taking it to a repair shop to get it looked at.
The custom AZ plates look really good though. Shame the NV plates I'm going to put on it all look like ass.
This is the best we've got
>>14745008
what a beaut, congrats man
This stupid faggot is always grinning at me
>>14745783
What a faggot holy shit
>>14745823
It's the Japanese ep2 bumper can't say I love it even though it's a lot different, I grabbed the first silver bumper off kijiji I could find after my accident
>>14746160
How did the last bumper look?
went to go look at a 1988 civic dx hatchback...
looked decent in the cl ad
went to go look at it and:
>bumper was crooked
>dent in hood
>dent on roof
>dents everywhere
>some rust forming on the wheel wells
>clutch was going to shit
>leaking which looked like it might have a blown head gasket soon...
$1800
but since the seller saw i was actually into the car more than just a "gas saver" car he lowered it to $1400
is there any escaping this hell, /o/?
can honda be sportscar despite fwd
>>14746822
I got my hatch for 1300 and it only needed a MAP sensor at the time. Starting price was 1800.
A lot of people just price them way too high.
>>14746822
2/10 would not buy
Hello friends, I'm looking at this 86 Prelude Si tomorrow.
It's got 140k miles on it and in hella good shape both inside and out.
Anything I should be scrutinizing hard when I peep it tomorrow?
He's asking $1800usd but I think I can talk him down a bit.
>>14744370
college yo
>>14746912
Look for rust underneath
Look for any oil leaks or fluid leaks in general
Make sure it doesn't pop/grind gears
Get VIN checked
>>14746951
What job are you gonna get?
>>14746899
i call it the "es a hondaa" price tag
>>14746830
TELL ME ABOUT THE BASE INTEGRA
Hey /hg/, I'm looking for my first car that I'll drive off to college and adulthood with.
What do you guys think of pic related? Aside from the front end it's one of the cleaner Hondas in my area.
>>14747135
o-ok
>>14747098
Exterior is an 8/10 my ass. Probably not the best.
>>14747296
whats wrong with it
>>14747358
Really nigga?
wew this took longer than I'd thought. The car is sanded and just needs a final cleaning before I paint it. Thinking of doing an antenna delete before I paint her
>>14741269
D:
>>14740800
Thanks senpai! I'm hoping this all works out well.
>>14744345
I'm jealous of you desu. Nice buy though, take care of that thing it's beautiful.
>>14747098
ew
>>14747367
>>14747438
yeah really, whats wrong with it?
>>14747446
People don't replace front clips for no reason, it was definitely wrecked.
