im moving on guys....my civic is for sale...

hey havn't really been posting on here much anymore. i've had a lot on my mind. my fiancee is pregnant. and in one month im going to be entering the police acadamy. which means no more racing, no more money into my car.:( i've decided i need to start saving money for a house and our baby. and stay out of trouble that racing can sometimes can get you into. i really, really love this car, but i need to move on. im looking into some kind of S.U.V for us now. anyways i will be trying to sell my civic(but trust me im not gonna try to hard)it hasn't given me no problems the people that did it are awesome. if someone is really interested pm i will send you pics and more details bout the car. it is clean in and out. and i will be leaving on my rims and system:( (i feel like crying). if anyone is really serious let me know. and i will also consider selling the engine, ecu, tranny, mounts all that good stuff that will bolt right up to a 4thgen since thats what its in right now.

sorry to here your going m8, but by the sounds of it you are doing the right thing ;)

yea man once in a while everyone has to pack it in for a while... just keep up on the boards and chill, talk ect.. good luck with the police stuff man, and also... youll be awesome to refer to with cop stuff ya know?? .. SUV's are pimp rides too hehe...
but u see, when ur kids all grown up, u get to make another civic :D and imagine what u can do with all that retirement money heh...
... ORRR even a better thought.. do ur kid up a civic !!! .. :mad: wish my dad made me a civic! :( :p :D

good luck man... but you'll be back ! mark my words you'll be back !

I say you keep it ... its paid for and done, and its a 4 door so there will be no problems with the kids.

lol thats what i told her. i know myself and as long as i have that car im gonna be racing or driving fast. i cant help it. so she wants me to sell it or the motor cause thats the only thing that will stop me. i will be back though. hopefully when im finished with the academy and get hired i will build a track car. a 4gen of course. im thinking of letting the engine and everything with it for about $3000.

too bad about selling ur car:( .....

do like we did.....i kept my civic and we went out and got a durango...ooooh the 5.9 v*:bloated:

I still say you keep it motor and all .... everyone drives fast regardless of engine, and even with my weak DPFI setup, I race at the ocassional light to light. So dont even worry about it and tell your fiancee that its a smarter financial choice to keep the car that you have worked so hard to build and that you know is running great and wont need new parts anytime soon (unless you go to the track and do a high rpm launch again ... lol)

:flipa: :flipa: :flipa: :flipa:

lol we'll you see im gonnna be in a position where i can't get in trouble with the law in any way what so-ever. and i feel as long as i have that car i will be out racing. so i need to do this. i've put alot of money into it and its does hurt me to let it go, but i feel its for the best for me and my family.

it might be good if u kept it if ur not going to buy a suv straight cash but finance it b/c itz always good to have a car that's paid for:)

well whatever you do dont sell it before may 18th, there is gonna be a meet out at fresno state.

Hello, I just wanted to invite everyone in or near the Fresno area to a car show thats being held at 9am Sunday May 18, 2003 @ Fresno State University. The Central Valley S2000 Club is meeting earlier at 8am, the Kripsy Kremes in Fresno (Blackstone/Nees). Please post if your interested in joining us. We might have a group drive later in the afternoon. I will post any additional info as soon as I get them but for now you can visit our Central Valley forum below:
http://www.s2ki.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=1649637#post1649637

Its mainly an s2000 meet but the guy said any honda enthausiast is welcome to show up ... and if they give us any shit you can blow em out of the water lol.

where do you live, and how much do you want for just the motor and harness, etc... if i can get a good motor in my 4g4d i might contemplate not selling it and getting my acura legend i want.

he lives in fresno which is in the middle of nowhere ... lol

and the price for just the motor and everything associated with it was mentioned earlier in this thread, i think it was like $3k or some shit.

what r u getting after u sell your car?:bloated:

get a durango...or stay in the honda family and get a crv, pilot, or passport

He should find a theft recovery CRV that the engine was stolen out of and put the motor he built up into that.

You should get one of the Oldsmobile SUV's they are very nice. Or a hummer;)
ha ha

You should be beaten and left to die a slow painful death for mentioning the honda assport(pissport). It is an isizu rodeo with a honda badge and the biggest piles of shit in the world. Ask any honda tech and they will tell how bad it sucks. We have to order parts from isizu to fix the piles when they break, and often do.

...so u wanna be a cop?
coo :D u can sign my tickets off :D

ide say stay away from the lil SUVs and get a real one like a tahoe or a suburban..... or a Escalade ESV, with the V12 option :D












stay away from them fords and dodges :bloated:

the biggest engine in the escalade family is the only engine choice, and thats the 345hp Vortec V8, what the hell are you talking about.


Redline - i know sometimes we must move on with our cars that we choose, but i think it is a wise desicion to give up the honda for awhile and move into a more family oriented vehicle, but why not just take the plates and insurance off the car so you cant drive it, and still buy like an MDX or CRV or something, and build your 4th gen as your track car.

damn that does really have to suck but it does come time in every mans life that he must grow and move on to more importiant things,,, shit a child and a stready job could make you happier then you have ever imagined!

i am also a father and my son is my world

but on another note i would like to pick up that engine off of you!
what are the specs on it i know its a crvtec but like how many miles, is it in good running condition, what mods ect. and also what is your price, i can pay in cash!!!
also where do you live man?

thanks alot,
martin

"Announced today was the 2004 Cadillac ESV. It will be based off the 'Burban platform, and will likely feature the 750 bhp NorthStar XV12 as an engine. It will arrive in showrooms in the spring of 2003 along with the XLR roadster and SRX sports-tourer. "

they have been talkin about it, more and more


:finger:

we went to car lots today and my girl is kinda leaning towards an envoy she saw. i like it looks clean. were also looking at the new trailblazers and tahoes right now. which ever dealership can give us the best deal will most likely win our business. and someone brought up me keeping it and using as a track car. i was thinking bout it but i dont think i can afford it right now. i need to just focus on house, car, insurance and all that other shit. plus im not gonna put any pressure on my girl, to get a job so i'l be doing this on my own. she can take care of the baby and the house. i will let the engine/tranny go for $3000. heres the list.

-b20b block
-b16a2 head(the better of the b16 vtec heads)
-dc sport 4-2-1 headers
-dual titanium springs
-pr3 chipped computer
-wire harness
-placeRacing engine mounts
-S1 b16 tranny
-clutch specialties heavy duty pressure plate with steal organic disk, resurfaced flywheel
-and all the other little stuff that go with it

why do u need a 750bhp suv:confused: more power is going into these trucks and suvs and for what??

i'd prefer the new lexus suv....headlights that rotate to ur path of vview as u turn:p that's what i'd like in an sux instead of almos 800hp....our durango has 245bhp and that's more than enough to get us moving:silly2:

that's kinda how i feel with the durango.....but 750hp is a little steep though...i could see that for the excursion...take that amount just to get it up to 70mph:silly2:

have u seen the ESV? its pretty big

actually no....

it seems that i'm getting quoted a lot:cwn27:

where in Cali is Fresno? My brother is in Phoenix lookin for a 4th Gen (seeing as I have his); he wants a hatchie but i'm sure he wouldn't mind a CRVtec Sedan :) also, is it 3000 for the whole car or just the engine and tranny?

Fresno is in central california near Bakersfield ... probably about a days drive for your brother

the esv is the same size as the 'burban 3500.

having a v12 escalade is retarted enough, the price is already 60g for one, add the v12 and your looking around 75 for it, no question.

it aint worth it imo.

i dont have access to my old email account but you can get to me at [email protected].(for the person who said he emailed me)
i wonder what those escalades would do in the 1/4 mile??? on 22's:D

and i have no idea how far is phoenix its a neighboring state though(almost) and thats $3000 for the engine/tranny and everything else. i'll probley let the whole thing go for about 4500. some asians are coming right now to look at it. which im probley gonna tell them that im not selling anymore cause they are from fresno. and im a hater like that:flipa: i dont want to see dudes mobbing in my 4 door around fresno, cause im a hater.:finger:

If you can afford a 750 hp escalade I think paying for gas would be no problem
