And the Journey Begins(pics)

So I bought a 1991 hatch si on saturday, to replace the dx, now my lil bro gets the dx when he turns 16 in 6 months. So this car is in awesome shape, completely stock and straight body, complete, perfect interior. So far we have switched the suspension, rims, intake (the dx intake is longer so its a bitch to get on), and half the sound system(pioneer deckand door speakers, alpine back speakers, pioneer 15' sub,and pioneer amp.) Sorry about crappy quality of pics and i didnt post all pics in one post because it wasnt working for me.

and another....

the only blemish, a lil rust spot oh nooooo! its ok we will be replacing the hood with carbon fiber;)

Isnt it fun? :D

hold on now kris im not done....

one last pic of the dx

and crappy angle of both

Wow I've never a light blue Si before. Looks nice.

my hood has way more chips and rust spots than that :p

looks nice ... are you gonna switch the muffler over?

and is your bro gonna repaint the DX?

I know my dx had tons of chips, i was amazed this lady drove it mostly all freeway and had only like 1 1/2 chips! My bro will eventually get car painted and yes im keeping the muffler, i have to after driving this thing with only quite noise(still some noise from intake, the b/f can hear it from inside his work) i need my muffler back im so used to that loud ass thing i love it

one more pic of its current state as of two minutes ago, here tim is working on sound system and im about to put on the projectors

nice car :D one of my fav stock colors :)

Clean as F***!!! Congrats

damn, real good lookin, lisa... the car too ;)
what are your future plans? i didnt know that color came on the si's?!?!
:confused:

but either way, congrats on your purchase and keep up the good work
:)

If I was going to name that car, I'd call it Aquafresh.

That's nice Lisa.

Looks awesome Lisa!
It's funny because in 1 of the pics with them together the old car was modded, and in the other it was totaly oposit.

congrats!

looks like a sweet new ride to play with lisa, hope you have fun with it.

in that one pic, it looks as tho the si is held up by a spare-tire.

NIIIIIICE Lisa! so is that what you'll be rocking up here in a couple of weeks?

i really love that color. i'm happy you found one with great paint :D

$3000 SUPER CLEAN

wow, thats awsome, good luck with the car, what are your plans for the motor? i say you swap in a B series motor and swap the a6 into the DX!!

ooo good thinking ali, i didnt even think of that yet, i dont think im going b-series because in the long run, i might be able to pull an illegal smog for sure for the next couple years but who knows, you cant depend on that, that far ahead, its just not worth it to me so im going d16z6 built with internals, turbo(eventually)...im really starting to love this car, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside:p thanks guys for the nice replies

Looks good man, Hope you enjoy it..
- Also, u must like the power upgrade hey lol.. :p
Have fun, later!

looking nice m8, looks well tidy, good buy by the looks of it ;)

Tahitian Green is such a beautiful color:) teal mobiles rule! that color is badass with cf

The english on the other side of the pond is a bit odd - "look well tidy" - lol

getting a Si simplified the install on so many levels :jump:

how are you enjoying the MPFI and tranny? how is the interior?

yea that was one of reasons i wanted the si, already have the tranny to go with the z6 swap and dont have to f*ck with doing mpfi swap...score!

the interior is prefect, so clean, just like new, like i said this lady never used this car for nothing except driving to work and back , i dont have pics of interior because they came out so dark with this crappy digi.

dont worry ... im sure plenty of pics will be taken at the OR meet ... are you coming to the sac meet on saturday?

i dont think so im timid enough as it is

Lookin sweet, Lisa... what kind of springs did you put on the Si? I noticed that it was dropped, and was just courious about what springs you used.

so im going d16z6 built with internals, turbo(eventually)... i swear to god your trying to copy me
