Nice to see some of the old heads still around. I crashed my 90Q Q back in 08' and am driving an 03' Accord, 4 cyl but I still lurk here now and then. Must say, this forum is by faaaar, the best I've ever been a part of to date.

I still have my Q btw, but it's been sitting for years. I had repaired the front end damage and installed a new radiator but Georgia was going to make me jump through too many hoops to get it back on the road. I also had some transmission issues and regular gas was $4.50 at the time.

Kind of sad... she is sitting in the sun with the clear coat peeling. I miss the old days with her and the great interaction/knowledge sharing with you folks.

Hope everyone is good.

...Drew...

Sad post, but good to see you here! Time to do the Wes Manual Conversion and get it back on the road...

Drew, good to hear from you, but I sure hope you weren't burning Regular Unleaded in your car.

Maxnix! What's up brotha? Regular, in the Q? Naaaah. I was paying the added premium for premium...it's just that I tend to remember the cost of regular. The Accord takes regular though. It drives like... well, an appliance. LOL

I haven't started her up in well over a year now because I sold the Nico Ecu and TCU. Prior to that, she would start with just a few cranks after months of sitting. I had just given her Mobil-1 syn oil change the same day I crashed it. Damage wasn't bad... took out the hood, radiator + support and a few fan blades. It just wasn't worth putting her back on the road as a salvage. GA makes you tow many miles away to have it inspected and you pay a nice sum for that. It's a racket here.

Anybody need a well maintained 90Q engine? Scary powerful....Guides already done, of course. U pull it.

Heath, I thought about it.... as you can see, that's all I did. :biggrin:

She'd have to get a paint job too. Not happening.
