Gotcha. Right now, as in today's market, good luck man. You may still get lucky and find someone who's willing to spend a decent amount of $ on your car, but your chances are not nearly as good right now. Make no mistake, Im not saying your car is not worth whatever it is you want, just be aware its gonna be tough to get it, if at all possible.

I feel you. I think I can at least get what I paid. When I went to go look at the car there were 3 other interested people that wanted it, it was only up for 2 hrs. I just got there first with money. The guy said first come first served. Lucky for me I had cash in hand. We will see.
I need something a little bigger, etc. Def...thanks for the input.

yeah, you can usually get nearly double the money parting a car out, unless you find that one buyer to give crazy money.

I think Ef's are the hardest thing to buy wheels for.IMO I like era fitting things, I have never seen an Ef with CCW's on it. I think it would probably look bad ***, but at the same time it wouldn't be fitting. Idk I'm a weird *** when it comes to my car... lol

The PF01's are ****. But...more expensive than the 949's. I was seriously considering the PF01's though (because of the availability of an 8" wide version).

I want a second set of track wheels so I may consider the PF01's next time around. I'm selling my EVOs though. I think I've put 100 miles on them since I bought them last year. damn new new azenis on them for a total of $1500

In other news, I love this new term:

Link here: http://www.urbandictionary.com/defin...rm=hardbuilder

1. Hardbuilder


Although typically a Honda or Acura enthusiast, a Hardbuilder is anyone who spends a significant amount of time, energy, and money to assemble what is considered by others to be a top-notch race, show, or street car only to debut briefly on an internet forum, blog, or in a magazine and to be sold shortly thereafter. Hardbuilders are typically insecure, psychologically restless, are often unsatisfied with the results of their builds, and have strong desires to earn the respect of their peers both on the internet and in real life. Multiple builds oftentimes allow Hardbuilders the brief self-affirmation and notoriety they require in order to remain content with their perceived lack of contributions to society, if only for a brief period of time. Hardbuilders also claim to be self-inspired, taking cues from no one else. Not to be mistaken with Hardparkers, who actually use their vehicles, Hardbuilders rarely remove their vehicles from storage.
“I heard VTECbadboi1.8 just finished another $50K Hardbuild Civic. I wonder if any of these Hardbuilder's cars will ever actually see a race track?”

No, not yet Going to work on the splitter set-up some more this weekend. Going to order these support rods as well. I love that they are black. For now, it's school work and replacing the door lock actuators in my girlfriends G35.
