well im gunna paint it champ white or a pearl white, the rim is a 3 piece wheel the center is gunna be painted silver or bronze (to match option sticker) and the lip is gunna be repolished when i get a chance to pull the pieces apart. the car is 2 colors atm, the chasis is tafeta white and the bumpers are a pearl.

 

A sad day for lovers of the DA here is a shot of a friends DA that he had been tryin to get for some time and he finally got in Monday and on Wednesday he was hit head on by some yahoo passin a school bus. All three passangers in the DA are ok other than some bumps and scrapes

 

DAAAMN! THAT SUCKS *****! i think i'd have cried. i hope the other guy had some good insurance!!


Ol'SkoolDA9....different from oldskoolda91

 

ive had my da for about a year now, i bought it as a rolling chasis Which was a POS but hey cant beat the $300 i paid for it. I bought the car cause i was tired of my beat up hatch and which i was known for but it was decently fast. i bought the da as a project car and to resurect it. when i bought it it had no motor, semi clean interior, both bumpers were busted up and broken in half and a cracked in half sun roof. i replaced the blueish lite gray seats with a pair of dark blue and dark gray i found out off a gs in the junk, seats were mint and couldnt leave without em (fronts and backs). i basically gutted the car they came out of for interior pieces oh and a sunroof. i picked the da for the body lines and interior space compared to my older ef hatch. the hatch was parted out for the da. what parts worked stayed or modified. my pride of the car is my engine oh and rebuilt ys1 tranny from the hatch (all new bearings seals) from honda. i feel like i can write a book on all the **** i took off and replaced on it. i dont have a pic of when i got it but i do have a pick when i first swapped the bumpers and headlights. i plan on keeping it for awhile and have plans for it still but short on money lol had it for a year now and still havent drove the car since i put the motor in. the Da has costed me about $3-4k in total since the original $300 last year. i want to join the da family for many reasons. im repping the da cus evry1 in my crew has new gen chasis and waned to be different from the rest and i dont see many nowadays on the road. plz vote me in

 

lol...damn talk about having to take notice to details. I can't believe I missed that

 

haha, yeah.

what happened to ur da Sole? Anyways Uhhhh I got my paint, and my 1pcs... but winter is here, so I think its a good decision to just wait till it warms up after winter and paint and put the 1pcs on, what do u guys think? (JUST in case its a bad winter here) and im putting my stockies back on tomorrow for the winter!

 

change of plans, the DA is in the garage with the bumper off and part of the light off; im tryring to figure out which other bolts need to be taken off for the headlight, and the stock corner plus in lights are being a bi tch! anyways, im gettin on g2ic for some instructions for the 1pcs WISH ME LUCK! laterr.

number 369 checkin in. finishing up my b20 bottom end this week or next. ive been having lots of problems with the rods and it turns out that acl boxed gsr bearings up and shipped them to me in the wrong box! got some king bearings in there now and its all spinning nice and free now.

 

wanna sell those gsr bearings for a good deal???

 

i would, but unfortunately they are fubar'd bc it took me 3 weeks of torquing the rods and trying to spin the crank to figure this out. im gonna call my supplier and see what they can do to get me my money back or some in store credit or something.

 

oh damn! ok. good luck with that man

 

the forum usaully this slow?

 

It's been like this since the change

 

damn guys, earlier when i was driving, my temp gauge shot up, i turned the car off rolled on neutral to my house, cause its not that far away. started the car and it jumped again, i put my hand ON the motor, **** wasn't even hot. now im wondering wtf is going on

 

Is your fan cutting on?
Did you check your antifreeze level?

 

hey guys im going to convert my DA to a 5spd soon just wondering what else would i need?
heres the parts the i have already
clutch pedal assembly
clutch cable
trans
clutch kit
5spd flywheel
axles shift linkage assembly
ECU

let me know what else do i need..

1 more question we converted my friends DA to a 5spd but everytime he puts it in reverse the shift linkage would hit the mid section exhaust under the car.. does any1 know why? i dont want it to happen to me in the future so yeah thanks guys!

 

yeah, forum change=GAAAAAY!!!

make sure you have anti-freeze in the car fisrt of all.
then try the thermostat.
if that doesnt do it i'd say possibly water pump or head gasket....

 

well the thermostat was just replaced recently and i just had the coolant flushed so everything should be at the proper level. so far i've had two people tell me about the water pump, and im hoping that its not the headgasket

 

Sucks man. One easy way to test the Headgasket.
Pull the Rad Cap off and with it off start the car. If it sprays like old faithful your headgasket is toast.

 

how often do they vote members in or bump em? once a month?

 

there is no "how often". its just whenever he feels like doing it....which isnt very often
