edit: I'll post pics with his vette, M3, and new TL-S in the driveway. Sick shot. Gotta blur out the plates first tho.
he got all that without going to college? what the fuck does he do for a living? is he in debt or something?

even with a college degree, 67k is alot for most people. a lot of people cant afford that shit, without going into serious debt.

got my camber kit balljoint installed for 150$ bucks 2night. guys were pretty cool. they have their own shop out in the country, work only on hondas. they laughed at the quotes and labour estimates i got, got it done in 2 hours flat. car rides like shit cause alignment is way off, thats hopefully done 2morrow.
i saw a few sick builds they had going on.
a complete EG hatch, DSM turbo, 220whp, complete sleeper.
fully built EG GSR swap, garret t25, projected 400+ hp.
JDM H22A hatch, completely gutted, slammed, incomplete turbo build. for sale @ 3500$
all in all, im just happy the end is nearing, hopefully i'll have a month or 2 of solid driving, just waiting on my shocks now

^Sounds like a cool place. Once you get that alignment done it'll feel like a new car dude.

probably something similar to the write up. my friend is pretty good with fiber glass based fillers. if we can get it looking somewhat decent, that will do. i just cant justifty forking out 1500 for a cut and weld right now. i just dumped 1500 into the suspension and tires. with rust proofing, it should last the winter. i'd rather fix it up somehwhat, and save the extra money towards a new car. probably an rsx-s.

yea thats a lot of money for a stock supra even with that low of miles. For that much money ive got a list of about 20 cars that i would buy that would eat that supra up. But it is a very clean car. dosent really matter what kind of car it is i would have a hard time spending that much money on somthing thats just gonna depreciate in value. But i guess that goes back to the same reason i wont buy a brand new car.

Hey what's up everyone? I just got my newly painted Taffeta White 1999 CL back from the body shop. It looks great. I'll post pics up soon, but it's bone stock right now. Everyone has seen that. I just ordered some KSport K-Pro's for my Accord, so I'll be swapping my old suspension (Skunkworks Coilovers w/Tokico blues) onto the CL when that's done. I also have some 18" Racing Hart C2s that will be on it as soon as it's lowered. Window tint appointment set up for next saturday! The CL is my daily driver. 160k + miles on it. Might be time for an F20B in this one. I do have a pic of my 1996 Accord...

Thanks. Exactly. I've been building the Accord since '99. So it gets first dibs on new parts. There's a lot done to it. I love how the Accord handled, so I wanted to get something similar for my daily. I can't wait to lower the CL and get some better wheels on it.

Nice Accord man. Loving the theme you got going with it. Were you at the Import Face-off at 42 this year? I see you were at NOPI, haha. Good to see some more Ohio fellas, we got to get a meet going on.

w00t, one successful repair - the thermostat. I've never had ANY repair go easy on this car, but so far nothing has blown up like I was expecting.

Too bad I'm having transmission issues. If I find a Prelude in good shape, this car is gone.

even if it is "out of date," you gotta admit that it does look really cool. for an older accord.

prelude is amazing IMO. just watch out for QP rust and oil consumption.

I'm really digging the Accord too. Looks a lot like my old one (except yours is WAY more pimped out).

In other news, I just installed my 2 10" Type E's in my trunk to match my Type S's front & rear and I'm friggin' loving my sound system right now.

its not that im into the OEM look or the authentic OEM EDM-JDM parts look. which is something CL owners will never know about. im just not into the big body kit look nemore and havent been since 01-02.

I feel you man. When I was a kid, I wanted some civic or eclipse to rice up with a body kit and what not. Then again, what kid didn't when the Fast and Furious movie came out? I ended up with an Acura CL with virtually no body kits and a few other aftermarket parts and I'm not complaining. I love my car. It makes up for all that with it's uniqueness and rareness.

doesn't sound like a bad deal. but if you doubt your financial situation, i wouldn't do it. they're expensive to maintain. relative to other hondas.
