My "other" car

Posted some pics of my Civic on another site and thought what the hay.

1998 EX...turboed...72k

And yes...the clear fades quickly on CF hoods. Just paint them!

Nice house and your car looks pretty clean. Not my style, (probably because all the civics around here are driven by %$^%) but you have to appreciate when other people put a lot of effort into a car. What does she run.

I was thinking the same NICE house and NICE car....:cheers:

Thanks guys.
Runs mid 13's. It's set up more for the mountains roads up here than the track. Dyno'd stock at 101 HP (Don't laugh). Now....216 HP and 212TQ.

Yeah the house is nice.....but....there's that dad-blame payment!

I see an RX-7 too. Sounds like your civic isn't just for show. I can appreciate that. Hate the guys with "fart cannons" and it is SUPER loud when they go like 5 mph and then they are generally slow cars.

LOL!...
The car came mostly the way it looks. I've done all the engine work myself. Built it myself.
I would have never spent the money on the body kit and the other stuff. Imma speed man.
The RX-7 was my brothers. We did a auto to stick converstion. Sold it after for a 5k profit!!!

Well you could always move to Florida, get a zero lot line home, and watch your neighbors change their close thru windows while making a likely bigger payment and paying 10k+ in property taxes plus 5k in hurricane insurance.

This view is beautiful and relaxing !!

Exactly why I left Fl I value my privacy and it's getting harder and harder to find that down there. I've always liked Georgia my parents are casually looking for land there so they can make there exodus from south FL as well. Nice car and the body kit was tastfully done compared to the crap I've seen on the road (included all cars).

I'm originally from FL. Born in Daytona....raised in Leesburg. Sorry guys....I do not miss it. I live on 3 acres and 4200 square foot home. Can only imagine what that would cost down there now. Costs are going way up here to. 4 years ago an acre sold for 15k. Today it's 50k. I would like to come down and visit. Anyone put me up?

I've got an idea: How about the whole ENTIRE forum rent a Greyhound and make a road trip to GA and YOU put us up lol.. Nice friggin' house man.....twice the size of mine----literally! Did you say that was your dads or yours? If it's yours, you don't have time to be on this forum, you need to be out detailing lol.....just kidding. Very nice house and land. Now.......go detail

 

[abrcrombe]

Very nice. I think I live on 1/4 or 1/8 of an acre. Would bring down big bucks though. Stupid inflated prices. My dream is to move to a smaller town. Not too far from SD though, because I appreciate and cherish family.

Bring it guys....we can one heck of a cook out and detailing session!

so what setup is it all running? my brothers been building a track car for a while- old vw rabbit with holset hx35 turbo( thats an upgrade turbo for dodge cummins deisal trucks!) on a far from stock 20V audi motor. everythings "fully built" and otns of custom fabrication involved. its an incredible looking car so far.not in the same range as you though, 13's is good for an every day drivable car

 

[dengood1]

we're going to wait until a cat 4 or 5 storm comes through, then we'll need a place to stay 4 sure:grouphug: Remember everyone, pack an "emergency" detailing kit to bring to Justin's house Justin, start stockin' the fridge lol

 

[Kelso]

everything is in a big autogeek box minus the peanuts and i have my xmt box and pc box. im ready to go:righton:

i got a house in NC if any other floridians need the emergency space:cheers:

 

[dengood1]

throw in the peanuts.....they make us all have that warm and fuzzy feeling when opening an AG box It would be like Christmas morning lol

Justin, the house looks awesome and the trees and land are beautiful. Dallas is way cheaper housing than FL, but in Dallas you don't get those beautiful trees and hills!

 

[abrcrombe]

too far... I wish I could come..
