I love the EP's shifter. Wish more cars came with the dash-mounted shifter.

That and the seats alone sold me, plus the exterior grew on me.

Giggity!

Yeah, the seats and shifter and versatility of the car really sold me on it. I still miss it, to this day.

All this reminiscing is depressing.

Why are you scared, Morgan? I like that picture of your CL looking at your FR-S; it looks like the CL is two seconds from kicking your new car's ass!!

In a straight line it could. Toss some corners at it and the FR-S will run away

I like having a game plan. I know I want more power, but there are so many ideas flying around in my head and none of them are cheap. I don't want to pour money into this one like I did the CL and not be able to get much out of it.


BTW - Im toying with the idea of parting out the CL

i miss my modded out CL but the money i made from parting it out made it easier to get over. it helped fund the new car with more parts.

I'd honestly just save the money for a down payment on a house. I thought about going all out on the FR-S but I think keeping it strictly bolt-on would be smarter.

BTW, anyone looking for a Civic shell or a "slightly" modded K20Z3 motor, trans, ecu and harness? Im trying to get rid of all that stuff so I can finally move on.

I still want to see how the new manifold will work on the engine. So I dont see a partout happening immediately. Maybe when Spring rolls around.

by no means does it have to go to the FR-S. extra money is always good period to go towards anything. after i got the NSX i just lost interest in my CL. i was ready to move on.

Its a 90 hatch, the tan one pictured in the post from last night. $250 if he picks it up. I've got a ton of parts if he wants those too, but they arent included in the price.

That sucks about his car though. Someone at the track probably followed him home.

No way. And as of now there is only rust on the driver side door under the weather stripping.

Im in Southern VA. Only one year did we get crazy snow.

Even if it does, Im pretty vigilant about cleaning the car, even in the winter. I won't let that salt sit on it for too long. Also, car covers FTW.

If you can do everything properly...sure. You can have it for 2 weeks if needed.

I'm not doubting your skill and I'm serious

Not sure whats going on with that last one, but the red one has the Nur Spec kit on it. I love it (aside from the spoiler), but I have my sights set on something else

The kit on the red one looks good, the wing makes it look like a riced out celica and the orange one would look ok if the spoiler was to fall off
