Ladies...what's parked in your driveway? What have you done to your car? What do you want to do to your car?
I have a metallic black 1993 Honda Civic 4 Door. I bought it about two years ago when it was just a plain old car. Now that I am getting paid for being where I am I havew the funds to hook it up. Im goin turbo...thats all I have to say. I bought some lowering springs from I think Eibach, I need to get some struts from Koni, Im lookin into getting shocks, my civic needs a paint job, and I am gonna get some rims from Konigwheels. Im gonna hook up my suspension first before I hook up the turbo.
That's that so far.
And another thing...Im gonna try to do it on my own...maybe with some help.

91 Accord Ex. So far, all I've done are some 17's, stock wing and mild stereo system. I'd like to do the suspension but don't have the money for that right now. Other than that, I not gonna do much else. It's my daily and I need to park it outside so I can't do too much else to it. Trying to keep it low key. No TFTF here. Don't get me wrong, that's a sweet look but not the look for me. That's just not my style. Besides, everyone keeps asking where my Harley is......;) Now THAT'S my style.......OG......:yes:

Wow...you have a Harley huh? Kool. I was thinkin about getting a bike but I never got to it. Im not much for the body kits and exterior...I just want speed and great suspension...and maybe when I deploy again...and come back with some more cash...I'll look into hookin up the exterior. I actually need to get a stereo too because my Civic got broken into last year and haven't had music since...been singin to myself...ha ha ha.

I have a 01 Eternal blue Civic Ex....and she's all stock with a f**ked up back bumper. One day maybe I'll get it fixed.....but right now I don't have the money for that and my student loan. And well, my student loan repayment is more important to me.

Yea...Im all for those Konig Troubles too...I'll have to get those when I get home...
Im gonna get a paint job too...I think I'll keep my Civic Metallic Black...
theres this blue-ish color w/ green and silver sparkles i like - i think i wanna have it painted that color but have it go from dark midnight blue to the blue w/ the sparkles then have it all fade to a silver in the back... or have it blue in the back yadda yadda... either that or im thinking of doing the same thing but w/ a really girly girly pink... thats part of the reason my kit isnt painted yet - i wanna wait and save to have the whole car painted... eh we'll see

Well...I was driving a '65 Ford Mustang and at the time I was driving it I was spending literally 60 bucks a week on gas since I worked and went to school so I was driving the stang everywhere...
So I had decided to find some car that'll be more reasonable to my wallet...and that's when I got my civic...now I go twoweeks on 15 dollars on gas.

Well I enjoyed the civic hybrids. Not gas/electric, CRX and del Sol.
Loved those cars.
But now I got a truck and a GTi VR6 baby yeah.

well rob, i got a 95 Lude. its a honda, but its not a civic or an accord. i have also owned both accord and civic. those cars dont even compare to the lude.

ya but your a guy.. i was talking about the ladies.
As for an acura being pricey, I wouldnt say they were that crazy. If you can afford to mod you can afford more car.
To the gas milage issue, big motors = more fun=more money. When driving the RL I used spend arond 150/week on gas. But I hear where you're coming from.

But hey it's a 18gal tank and when filling up on 94oc it adds up. not to mention I had a gf who was 40miles away at the time. But its all good; nothing beats driving on the highway at 110 for 30min at 2am :cool:

when i had my old school 2 in storage i cried that i couldnt drive her, but happy that it wasnt getting rust from snow. then i sold her a week after i took out of storage.;(
Kool-Aid
04-30-2004, 03:16 PM
Why'd you sell it?
i wanted a lude - trust me... but i actually NEEDED a new car asap and the $ i had available to me at the time only gave me the civic option... i want a vr6 but for now, til i save, this car has been extremely good to me... and its pretty anyways
IALuder
05-01-2004, 01:57 PM
i sold it becuase it had no power options. i wanted something i could modify. after i sold her and got a accord. i was mad at myself. the RWD was so much better. i felt the 2 had more power then my 93 accord LX. then i just got used to the slow FWD. then even slower FWD when i got the Civic. now im in heaven with a fast as hell FWD. the Lude. i still want to get a FD. man i love those cars. expensive but nice!
