and for all you people viewing and not replying[lurkers lol]...i know u wana give some tips on how to upkeep [do preventative maintenance] my 220kmile daily KA24E all i have done for having the car one day is doing a full service oil change/full 2.5" exhaust and bought rear and front strut bars cus they will look sexy/handle better ha

i gota have this car last til i can [hopefully by magic] get my not running sr returned intime for the warranty and get a working one in

exhaust was a waste of money

looks liek a**

and yea the SRd one was a rip off; hope it doesnt require a full rebuild for your sake

the best deal was the parts car.... use the hicas steering rack

best advice for the two tone

pray it doesnt fall apart

oo and welcome to nicoz

ha i could easily boost it but that was the last thing on my mind for this olddddd daily...and i dont have enough knowledge on rebuilding to do it or anything of the sort..and i dont even know anyone personally who does that type of stuff..itd be nice tho! lol

and to the guy that said my exhaust was a waste of money..yeah you're right i shoulda just left the exhaust how it was when i got it..

and about the sr..i just got a new engine/transmission that didnt start..so i gota send it back cus its under warranty...loong story but im never ordering an engine from canada again...and if u wana come put the hicas steering rack on my other car plz come help cus i have no clue how hahaand for the two tone..all i can think of is dont be too rough with it and keep the fluids clean-regular if not more than often oil changes and etc

but as i said..comments and questions are welcome

i traded my "rebuilt" honda with a busted frame/windsheild/axles plus $1000 for an sr20det with HKS everything, straight 3" turbo piping..seemed worth it at the time

it was a waste cuz its obviously egay or muffler shop special

and you have 2 non running cars

common sense would have been to use the cat back off one of the other cars

cuz um,

its free?

o well perhaps im stupid

not ebay+better than stock=not a wasteand why would taking the 3" exhaust off my project car be common sense when i dont have a 3" downpipe on my daily single cam and my sr will be runnin in a month or less--perhaps u are but im not one whos quick to judge

That's a hefty court case. It's very important to switch the vin plates with the dash. Depending on the state they normally keep those cars and crush them. They might just assign the car a new vin and make you pay the impound fee with the vin assignment fee. But trust me when I say those fee's aren't cheap.

on a postive note..i got front and rear strut bars!so now i just need to put on my rear strut bar while trying not to screw up any of my stock trunk pieces and swapping out my white hatch for this ugly red on..never done any of this before but ima figure it out might smoke the tails and get new clear headlights/corners

Did you have the car registered? Why would the cops just show up to ask what you were doing? This story sounds like some hot bulls***.

harsssshness! i had the title for the car signed but had not yet been transfered..the uncracked dash came from a friends car who gave/sold it to me and all the vins came up clean..but its illegal to have the vins not match i guess..i wasnt even driving it on the road..its my project!and they said they came over because someone called and complaied about something-knocked on the garage..i opened it obviously and things went downhill from there =[they literally looked through the books to find something to get me on..for what reason other than boredom..i have no clue
