thuggish ruggish HMT forever my ninjas! I know that after my setup is done, eventually, I may get bored with it, but I don't know if I'd ever be able to sell it. Its a labor of love and at this point means a lot personally. Nah mean?

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car

Yea i really know what you mean, i get to drive my car like once a week if that, but ive put to much into her, i cant let her go... raffi i cant believe ur bored!

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
Thanks for your suport guys :-X.

No its not couse of the wife.She actually got upset when I told her couse of all the time and money Ive put in to the car in the last few months.

Well heres the deal.I need to get rid of my Dodge Ram couse its been sitting for 3 months now.It kills me on gas when I drive it.It costs me $56 to fill the bitch up.It givs shitty gas milage and I have to fill up twice a week(7days)Plus paying $350 a month(plus insurance)for a truck that just sits is'nt that smart.So it has to go.
So I bought the Auto Trader today and cars equal in milage or higher to mine are selling for about 5-6K.---- ill settle for 5 :-\.I can get a Rex for about $1500,sell the Ram.and buy a 95 Toyota pickup(next project ;)) for $2500 with the money from the Civic.
Well thats my crazy Idea.In not selling out just kinda restrutureing ;).

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
Raffi Raffi Raffi... You know whatever you buy your going to end up playing with and probably boosting... Dont give up on the civic just yet, we havent even had a successful hmt so cal track meet yet

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
If you're worried about gas and ----, why sell the Honda? ??? I can see selling the Dodge for gas, insurance and payment reasons but not the Civic. Are you just looking for a new project or what? How long have you had that car? I don't see what you will gain by selling it. Do you still owe on it? I hope you find what you're looking for. :-\


Sellout :P

if you get a rex you have to put a z6 in it just to stay true to your name.

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
shut the ---- up spenser, there are not alot of people I'll take time out of my day to stand up for, especially on the internet, but raffi is definitely worth standing up for, and you are being a dick, that comment was uncalled for.

MikeJ-2009 04-22-2004 12:37 AM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
I can't imagine the type of toyota truck you'd get for $2500. Plus, that next project is just another money pit. At least the money pit you have now is finished. I don't get it. ???

I never have money in my pockets anymore because I need better parts. This doesn't stop, man. You know you can't stop. I don't party anymore, smoke anymore, this car has everything I've got. When you turbo your Toyota Pickup, remember, it is easier if you start with a 22rte block, they have the oil ---- all set up for the turbo...

Sellout :P

Im not selling the civic for gas.The point is that with the money I can get for the civic I can get 2 older cars.The pick up I want couse being a home owner you allways need a truck to haul ---- in.

I know Ill have to swap a z6 into the rex but we all know those can be had for $0.01 anny where.

Well I shouldt of even brought it up.You guys and my wife are kicking my ass :-\.

projekteg 04-22-2004 06:57 AM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
*commences ass kicking* na, whatever makes you happy, but in the first post, you made it sound like you were to old/mature to drive a boosted honda, but you're talking about getting a rex as a project, so that's fine in my book ;)

hell ya.. it's like getting paid to lighten your car ;)

davcivic 04-22-2004 08:33 AM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
Well If you are going to do it, take all the turbo stuff out, and hold for the CRX. That way you can still probably get 5k for the civic in cali, and still have the turbo kit for the CRX. I wouldn't sell my car again, I almost cried when I traded in the 97 civic :'( :'(, after 3 years of work :'( :'(. Think about it really good, before you do anything.

projekteg 04-22-2004 08:40 AM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
yeah, definitely take the turbo out though, b/c you'll actually get more money for it with out the turbo, and then, you'll already have a complete kit for a rex, or whatever else you decide to get.

davcivic 04-22-2004 08:47 AM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
It can go both ways, some kids my think yeay it's already turbo, so kids might think, why is he selling it, the engine must have been raped and about to go boom. I would take it out and sell it like a stock ex.

Donald125 04-22-2004 12:14 PM

Re:I think Im gonna sell my car
 
i still remember how BAD i feel when my civic was sitting in the garage and i was forced to drive a 86 rx7 becasue of a ---- up motor.
and i still remember how HAPPY i flet when i jump into my car for the first time after so many months of suffering. :P ;D
and i can`t imagine how is it to actually GET RID of it after all those time YOU`ve worked on your car. ;)

oh well, your choice man, D16Z6 For Life ;)
