I have a 92 hatchback se that i really liked driving, collecting parts for it to get an sr swap only a couple months out now. She got hit by a senior citizen on the way to work, zerothread?id=420300, and now i need something to get to work in the meantime. I never thought id own a coupe, or a pignose, but i have both now. Its 5 speed, in pretty good shape, i bought it from a guy that moved from texas. The HUD all still works it even has factory windshield with the off-colored square for it. Factory radio too, speakers blwon though. The power sunroof works too. The dash in uncracked and the interior is well taken care of, and i havent found any rust other than some slight surface rust in the spare tire area. 141,000 miles. I got it for $1100.What you think?

No one gives a s*** i know, heres the pics:

Heh, i bought it at night and i thought it was silver, but then the next day i walked outside like 'wtf?' its a light green color heh...at least the interior is gray, not blue or brown.Im going to put the old se wheels from my hatch on it, and fix the suspension up front and a leaky fuel line. Then its good to go motor runs strong. Not going to do much to it, concentrating on the other car for now. Just going to baby this coupe so i can keep working for money for the hatch.

Fixed the fuel leak today, and found a side marker for the front passenger side. Also threw on the SE wheels i had from my hatch, looks much better than steelies w/hubcaps imo. Just need a check or two before i can order the suspension parts up front then i can get it inspected.

Pics of se wheels and fixed side marker:BeforeAfterLooks more like a 240 now.

Im trying to fix the reverse lights on my car, and i checked the obvious bulbs and fuses and theyre all fine. I checked for voltage on the wire that comes through the harness and it didn't have any voltage on it, so im thinking it may be the sensor/switch that tells me reverse lights the transmission is in reverse, but i didn't know where to look on the car to find it, or how to test it. Any advice?

reverse sensor is on the transmission..when my reverse lights stopped working i checked out the sensor and found that it wasn't the actual sensor that was bad but one of the wires going to it had broken off from the sensor..simple solder fix

2tone FTMFW, teal on gray is the best 2tone S13 coupe color.
