SERIOUSLYoff topic thread PART TROIS...minus postwhores!

im thinkin about getting a daily driver, b16 4th gen hatch or even zc powered

i have to drive too many miles to and from work to drive my truck, after i get her painted, interior done, and on some 18" billet shoes i dont really want to drive her down the shitty hillbilly streets i have to go down to get to work.
so yea what kinda price range am i lookin at, thinkin of getting a loan for it cause im broke from buying and fixing the suspension on my truck

Kinda depends on what the market is like where you're at. I mean, Kris just got a 5g hatch with a GSR motor for less than $4k. Then again, that same car would go for about $6k in most other areas. I've seen 4g hatch's with swaps go for....probably between $2500 & $4500. Again, it depends on where you are.

I don't know about you, but the only reason I sold my truck (after getting my Civic) is because I couldn't afford two projects. As much as I'd love to suggest just keepin' the Escalade rims/tires & using the Billets for show - I know the reality of things - and I probably wouldn't roll on stocks either :lol:

Just pick up a beater to drive to work. Then you have a cheap, paid off car to use & you can put your extra cash into the 'Zu. Just my :2cents:

i dont want another project
i just want a zc or b16 stock lookin civic, but i might look into something else
cause i really hate putting all these miles on my truck.
i might just get something cheap and stock and put a badass stereo in there and cruise it
dont want to spend more then 4k on it tho any ideas?

Since we just IM'd about all that....and I'm bored....I'm gonna change it up a bit...

Anyone else in here watch Cheaters?

My wife & I love that show - to the point that we almost plan around it just so we can be home to watch. It's funny & sad at the same time. Definitely one of the better 'reality shows' out there...



If only they'd been around about 5 years ago - lol

never seen it, what is it about?

It's a reality show about people who get cheated on. The way they do it is.... If you suspect you're being cheated on, you contact 'Cheaters' and they send out their private detectives to conduct surveilence on your...uh...significant other. If they find (video) evidence of your mate cheating, they show it to you. Then, you confront them. This is all filmed for the t.v. show.

You gotta see it.

Some of the people (being cheated on) even have Cheaters install hidden cameras in their homes just so they can get video footage of their mates cheating!! It's pretty twisted, but kinda cool because you get to see, first hand, someone getting caught (sometimes in the act of cheating).

Then again, if you've been cheated on, it's kind of a bittersweet show to watch. It's cool to see the "cheaters" get busted, but at the same time, it'll bring up memories of shit you probably don't want to remember.

hahah the radio station does that here, fuckin they like say they won a dinner or someshit and want a name for the person going with and their boyfriend/girlfriend are listeing and they usally say someone elses name and they fuckin get scammed

saltines are bangin as shit omg

Oh man... I hate being addicted to 4th gens sometimes!

There's a small used car lot down the street from my office that has a grey 89 DX hatch on the lot as of yesterday.... and even though I don't need it, I want to buy it.
I'm still going to go by today and ask how much they want for it :P

lol buy it!

lol buy it!

Nah... got to look at it in the day light today, and the interior is trashed... no telling what else is wrong with it... so best left for someone else.

Edit: Made links work

i have the rear hatch cargo cover for sale...itz black and out of a dx so doesn't have the pods for speakers but u can put speakers in there....want it for $30?

yay for me guys i just traded my dx hatch for a 88 crx, its a piece needs a lot of work but im stoked

cool stuff rexs are nice no rear seats lucky you.
How hard is it to put the speakers in cause i'm really thinking bout them

in a hatch. not that hard. you get the brackets, drill four holes on the rear shelf holder to secure it with screws. then cut a hole in the bottom of the shelf holder and run speaker wire from where its hiding behind the tail lights. if you just wanna connect some speakers back there jsut looks behind the cover like your going to change a brake light bulb and you'll see a pair of wires taped to the body, thats your speaker wires :D

what he said :D

cool sounds good well If you PM me your addy i'll take um!
Also i just got my pops a gift for his rex some knock off JDM amber corners cause one of the stockers is busted

not much is going on adrian. just chilling in BC still, i fly out monday afternoon tho at 2:15, i arrive in toronto around 10 i think, damn 4 hour 45 min flight, plus the stupid 3 hour time difference :(

IMO BC is the hippy province of CANADA

Heeeeeeeelp please. How far from the international airport in LA is Ontario California? They have a bike I wish to purchase.

HOOOORAY , i sold the daihatsu charade, i now only have the blue 4th gen left which mum is having so i am still looking for a 4th Gen VT , there are a few about but most are high mileage and its gota be white

4th gen all the way guys :D:D

IMO BC is the hippy province of CANADA

i dunno if i'd say that, this province seems quite good, alot of friendly ppl, great scenery, i like it here, havent seen any "hippy" type ppl really

Heeeeeeeelp please. How far from the international airport in LA is Ontario California? They have a bike I wish to purchase.

i'm guessing around 40-50 miles. go to www.mapquest.com and look under driving directions. that should tell you for sure

btw: we call that airport LAX here in the states ;)

omg i almosted cried today at the gocery store today, i bought enough apple jacks to last me to the end of year probally, they had no limit on 99 cent boxes for cereal YES! APPLE JACKS!

what a sad sad world.......but hey a least my stocks in apple jacks went up today ahaahaha

99c boxes....wow...would love to see som fruity pebbles or crunch berries like that :D

yes i love apple jacks, im going to go back tomarrow and buy more lol (=

ok once again i am looking at another Civic VT

its got 59k on the clock , is a 1991 , no powersteering or ABS,
2 perivous owners, red, usual spec, and the price is £2000 which is $3500 USD, the car seems very tidy in the pics, he says it has small bubbles of rust on the rear arches other than that it is pretty sound all in all , here are a few pics for you guys .......

http://194.154.162.19/phpBB2/modules.php?set_albumName=album99&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php

ABS was an option for the 4th gen over there? damn.

Anyone know how difficult it is to install cruise control on a car that didn't originally have it, like mine? I do A LOT of highway commuting each week, and it gets tiring holding a car at the same speed for an hour or more.

yeha i positive it was, a few later models have got it , likewise with Power steering

Haven't been around in a while since I had to sell the civic...but I thought I'd put up a post of what I replaced it with...what better place than OT...

04 subaru legacy... just put on the 04 subaru baja hood with the hood scoop... came from the factory with a plain old boring hood...had to replace that... springs are next!
