Hi corey.

There's a lot of false flagging going on here.
>>
>>15129375
Again I am the Sol owner, never been a trip fag.
I fail to see your point?

I didn't hate on anyone.
I do no know this Corey meme you are on about.
The Sol is DOHC
I admitted the chassis is built better, RWD is a matter of preference, as I do not race I see or feel no need for it.
MX5 is lighter yes, but the Vti and Sir has an extra 10bhp on any MX5 released to this day... even the 2Li model.

Get a grip kid.
Also I do offer advice where I can, and as said I do not hate on any cars. I just explained why I prefer the Sol over the MX5.

Fun?
I have driven MX5's and their lack of power is not fun. The lack of noise is not fun. The driving without due care and attention is not fun when you get pulled for driffing. The lack of security from a rag top is not fun, the extra £9000 for the hard top convertible is not fun. The added weight in the hardtop is not fun.
I'de sooner go around a corner fast and in control rather than slowly and sideways on a road.
At no point have I said MX5 are shit or bad cars, i've just put my point of view as why I do not like them.

I feel you pain when my '90 Accord started developing more problems.

I've owned it for over 2 years and spent thousands of dollars on repairs that was not worth doing.

As I was saving money up to get the repairs done, I realized that I had enough money (and a good credit score) to make a downpayment on a newer car.

I took the car to the Honda dealership, test drove Whitey, they took my car for $500 (I figured it was only worth $200 because of its history and problems it had), and 4 hours later, I drove off with my new 2005 Accord.

Car payment is $174/month for 48 months and insurance is $191.

I took her in a few weeks ago because she was making a sound under engine deceleration and I was told that there is this pin or bushing, I don't remember, in the transmission known across cars to make this sound and to replace it he has to take the whole transmission apart and so forth. He also told me it may go away because he has had it on his own cars where it has gone away however the past three days have been nice 75F out and it does it no matter my style of driving and when I turn the heat on no matter the level it stops right there and then. I know for a fact if I get this fixed there is no way in hell it's going to be cheap so my dilemma is should I sell her and then try to find a 'more' reliable car or fix her and then have more shit happen in 3 days time because fuck me right?

Yeah, I'm 26 making $2,500/month from the two jobs I have; I've been building credit for two years.
>>
>>15131078
I honestly recommend anybody who wants to build credit to not get a fucking credit card as your first move.

Co-sign a loan with someone close to you, that has a good credit history and pay the monthly car payments on time, then get a credit card once the loan is paid off; keep your spending under control, and balance(s) low, and by the time you've reached your 10th year of credit, you'll be able to finance any new or used car with the lowest interest rates.

>>15131115
A credit card is a real easy way to build credit though. You can get a student card with a low limit without much work. Then just use it to buy small day-to-day stuff and you can slowly build a history.

A loan is a much bigger thing that not everyone wants right away, and having someone co-sign actually reduces the positive impact the loan has on your score.

Doesn't take anywhere near that long either.

Credit is important if you ever want a house. Lenders need to know if you'll pay the money back.

Also, credit cards a great way to get free stuff if you pay the balance off on time. I've never spent a dime on interest, but my credit card company has bought me plenty of things with Amazon points and cash back.

Not to be a downer but if you need a car for commuting and might not be able to afford repairs why not something that's mechanically sound than an enthusiast car that is likely to go wrong often and have pricy repairs

buy something that has a shitload of spare parts, no huge common issues and easy to access everything

Like the 5th gen UK prelude is known to have leaky seals and the engine eats through the piston rings, but the car shares a lot of parts with (i believe) the accord which was manufactured in bulk locally so locating spares isn't hard. I paid $4 for an oil filter and $2/NGK spark plug cuz there's so many of them around that it's not an obscure part to replace.

Tell me about your TSX. What do you like, what do you hate?
>>
>>15129781
Nope. The first gens are dope. Either gen CRX or an EF hatch are my dream cars out of the Honda brand.
>>
>>15132172

>>15132190
Gas mileage is incredible. Been getting 26+ MPG even with some spirited driving.

The interior is very nice. The TSX gets a lot of flack for being "just a rebadged accord" but anyone who's been in an 7-8th gen USDM accord knows that the TSX is better. The leather seats are top notch.

Drives really well. I'm not a speed chaser or anything like that, but I can go fast if I want and hitting the Vtec while merging onto highways is a dope feeling. Handling is great.

6 years into the car and the only thing I've had to do with it is change the fluids. Absolutely no problems. Super reliable.

One drawback is that there is not that much space in the rear seat for passenger leg room.
Other than that I don't have anything negative to report about it. Has been my baby for 5 years now and I never want to sell this until it doesn't run.

Been debating between a 1g TSX and a G37 for a daily. For the money you pay for a 2g TSX which is comparable to a G37, performance wise it seems to be superior. But idk I need to test drive all three.

Wait what, you might be getting the TSX mixed up with the TL. The TSX is nowhere near the G37 in terms of performance, closest youre going to get is a TL Type S

think he was just underestimating how powerful the G37 is. I know some engines have like 300+ hp lol. I think one of the G37 engines has a 2.4 or 2.6 liter with only a little bit more than 200 hp

What are the shift points for casual driving mpg conscious? The owners manual says them in speeds, but I want to know the optimal points in rpms.

I usually shift around 3000 - 3200 for casual slow driving. Is this correct

Like he said the Type S is lighter, and the V6 in the TSX is also weaker with less hp and torque, no brembos and no LSD. Get the G37 or go with the TL Type S 6 speed to have the best looking, most awesome out of the 3

Thanks mayne, still looking for a steering wheel and maybe white dials but thats about it for interior goals. the Torrus cupholder matches well but doesnt seem to have enough room to fully retract, its stuck in there now though so I probably wont ever get around to changing it, over all I would probably perfer the prelude center console aesthetically but mine is now way more functional and feels more like a cockpit

My 3' pipe on my Sentra was connected to a $20 Cherry Bomb turbo muffler. Quieter than a cannon AND I had no cat or resonator cause the whole damn thing rotted away.

>tfw i will never find blue rear seats
I have these same patterned front seats tho, and i'm unsure if I should swap them
if i do it probably wouldn't be for a long while
Also these back seats are v dirty, and the flash makes them look a lot more gray

t-thanks
i wish i could find blue rear seats in as good condition, or that there was some way to darken that bar thing above the seats to match it better. Oh well.

On a side note, is there anything anyone here recommends for cleaning my interior? Seats/carpet specifically
I vacuumed the shit out of the back seat because it was dirty as fuck (came from an old shell that'd been sitting for a very long time), but I'd like to steam clean, or shampoo, or whatever would make it the most cleeaaan. So I don't feel gross sitting in it. Any ideas?

my mom drove an '89 accord lx and I remember this seat pattern, arguing and causing mischief with my brother in the back during trips, and the roar of the engine when my mom would let her rip on on-ramps and smash through the gears. that's how it all started for me, boys. would love to find an accord just like it some day.

>>15142310
I immediately called the police, and they went through and checked. It wasn't towed or anything. There was no broken glass, and I'm 99% certain I locked it. The worst part is that it was parked in a residential fucking court.
Now I'm just waiting for them to find it. This is dreadful, that car was my baby :(

Looks like the dash says 202 116 miles. If it's close to you go check it out, but he purposefully left out the miles on his ad
>>
>>15142535
It says 206k on the ad but should I even consider buying this car with this high mileage?
>>
>>15142556
Hmm, is that the cheapest in your area? It might be worth working him down a considerable amount seeing that's a lot of miles on any sport's car, doesn't matter if it's a Honda. You'll have to factor it that you'll need an engine swap eventually and a tranny and lsd to go along with it. If the body is in great shape then I'd say it's worth it as a project car and collect the parts over time

I got a trans for my D series for 700. That's on the high end though because I bought it from a reputable transmission shop. Was pretty much brand new so no regrets.

>>15143965
Kind of want a new knob but the stock one is so based.

How much was the labor fee?

Not sure there. I met a friend that knew how to do it but it's not that hard to take it out and put the new one in. I thought it was gonna be really hard.

I'm keeping mine stock. I'm done with the after-market-tacky-knob phase.

>>15144031
It needs to be done correctly. Short intake with heat shield and hood scoop.
>>
>>15144077
Yeah but I know nothing so I wont be taking that chance. I need to call my mechanic see how much he wants for a transmission swap and or would it be better to just replace the part he mentioned that was the cause of the sound
>>
>>15144091
If I ever got one it'd probably be from Spoon.

>>15144110
Shouldn't cost much if even I can do it. Never opened up an engine yet. What kind of budget you got?
>>
>>15144163
I haven't made one it's just I worry if I do spend more on this car to fix her up more shit will break so it's like do I risk getting something else and hope it lasts or what you know? But I guess if it's less then 1k$ I'd be willing, 600$ and I'd probably do it if I knew it would last forever but can't see into the future
>>
>>15144204
That's how I am too. These cars are very simple from my experiences so far. Getting a whole different car on a low budget is much worse I think instead of fixing the one you got.

Transmissions for these are pretty easy to get too. Check your local Facebook import parts groups and stuff like that. I got a full set of shocks and springs for mine worth over $600. Paid $140, plus another 140 to replace a blown shock.

I see, so you think getting a new out of the box transmission is a 'bad' idea in my case?
>>
>>15144286
If you got the money I recommend it because it did last the whole time you own it. They're just way more pricey than a used one some guy is selling from his crashed Honda.
