UPDATE** so as of yesterday the new coupe i JUST bought was rear ended pretty bad, bending the frame and rippling the rear qtr panel pass side and smashing the bumper support under the car. not to mention the gas tank has beenpushed about 3 inches forward so the hole dosent line up .

ill have some pics soon.***

so alot of you may remember me with the red hatch with the CA18DET swap that i did, alot of you helped me.

i picked up a coupe for thr right price, i bought it from the orignal owner for 2k

first heres my old hatch to refresh your memory







and now this is my new coupe







well, it still has the ka24de in it, that runs like a top

but imma sell it and do another CA18DET swap.

anyways, its good to be back. this forum is unlike any other. alot of smart people on here.

lmk what you think

Wait. So you had the red hatchback and then got the blue coupe? The blue coupe was damaged in the accident after you had just bought it?

Or is the red hatch the new whip?

It sucks that this happened but atleast you're ok.

That sounds like a good deal! I still would rather have the car in the shape it was when you bought it, but you could probably make some money on this.
