I hear ya. I wanted something really nice for my coupe. Something to hold onto. Going to give him a bit to respond.

Will let you know. Boxes are in my car. I may have to call up the Albanian cousins over in Queens.

 

Thats some bullshit man. Were spread around here in NY.. got ya covered!

 

so i've pretty much been tracking the EVER LOVING CRAP out of my hatchback since it was oddly featured in a silly magazine.

70 or so track days later, someboy driving it (me) at a new track (Carolina Motorsports Park) did a silly thing he knew he wasnt supposed to do (lift throttle off even a tiny bit in the "KINK" going 115 MPH), and hit a tire wall. it was a wall that replaced some trees that killed some dudes a few year ago. glad it was replaced. i guess Jimmy Johnson wrecked some nascar hotness there too. NICE. really dumb move, but i had a bit of panic, and lifted a tiny bit. track was SLICK from dust, and the car drifted left, and i was too far left anyways. it happens.

it didnt hit hard, hurt NOTHING structural body lines are fine, and, drove fine after a bit of fender pulling. rocked on it hard the next day after i quit hating myself. i had GREAT students this weekend, etc, and overall had an exceptional weekend.

here are a couple pics with casey penn and sara looking good. lol





i've got a door, and flared front fenders already...

would you guys put these on the car ?

they would cover all the damage nicely, and give me more tire clearance.

and they are cheap as crap. LOL

damn that sucks dude, even if it is minor damage.

i actually thought about those flares awile ago haha. They might look ok, but ive only seen them on riced civics so its hard to judge.

 

Sup guys, I'm in the process of buying a Miata right now....but I'm really considering buying another EF after I get out of school and have some disposable income to waste.

Just checking in on everybody, sucks about the crash, doesn't look too bad though

Rob. I need new pics.

 

 

wtf?!?

how'd the ban happen?

 

interesting ducts on that white crx, custom?

 

That'll buff right out....

...seriously though, if you can envision those rear qp's looking good, then I say go for it. Then you can stuff some serious tires all the way around. I'm very happy for you that the car was not further damaged...cause I've seen tire walls total a car when hit with some force.

 

Could've looked something more like this....

 

If I had hit anything but parrallel to the wall, it'd be shot. Lucky break. Good thing for my spare shell for part. Too bad they are marroon

 

Still don't know. I'm just trying to get it running right now before I make any drastic decisions. Maybe I may sit in it and love it all over again. Just haven't had time with it to decide anything. But parting it out was just to get rid of some stuff and get extra funds

No go on the lip fitting a 90-91. You can do a Chargspeed polyurathane lip replica. Easier to work with and shape but the 88-89 bumoer is just shorter then the 90-91 bumper so it won't wrap all the way around

I think its 12. Whatever wires they use to hook up 1000 watt amps for stereo systems.


Hey if you are interested, I'm going to be making some VEGA Sport wings
Maybe once I get one done you can test it out on the track for and tell me how it works.
I'm learning how to work with lexan and maybe fiberglass pretty soon.

 

dang Adam....

well i guess it was bound to happen sooner or later considering the amount of track hours you put in.

 

Foglight vents, where can i get one?

 

Very interesed Vega!

 

sorry to butt in on the ef convo here but my car is pictured so i think i have the right to ask..

WHY THE HECK DOES CASEY LOOK SO FLAMING IN THIS PICTURE?!!

 

the bumper air ducts are from password jdm

That SUCKS!

anyway, I have seen a car about 4 years ago with those flares, it actually looks pretty decent and didnt look odd/out of place, I say got for it

 

Anyone ever check out this site? Pretty good deals.
20% off some ATE super blue at tire rack.
http://www.gearheaddeals.com/2011/06...g-brake-fluid/

Some good tool deals as well.. some of those little craftsman kits would be great for a track day rather than lugging half the tool box.

 

Thanks for sharing! I always order my ATE blue and ATE Typ 200 (gold) online. I once had to pick up some Blue in a pinch at a Porsche dealer (this is what Porsche runs in some vehicles stock) and that sh*t cost me $35. Hahaha.

Update on my wheel drama: Dude basically says he provided a honest description and pictures and that I should trust him. I guess he just doesn't get that his definition of "excellent condition" his far off from the norm.

 

That's stupid. Excellent means no damage, good stickers, no cracks or bends. Or "like new".

 

link?

 

I can't even count the times I've been in the same situation where even freakin paypal screwed me saying the "****" I got was in "excellent condition".

I bought a CRX bumper a few years ago in "MINT" "excellent" condition and when it arrived it was scratched to f*^kin hell and needed major bodywork to even look presentable, nowhere as bad as the pics made it out to be.....SOMEhow paypal's sorry *** agreed with the seller that it was in "posted" condition and made me keep the p.o.s. with no refund. That f*^er is still sitting in my attic collecting dust as I type this.......hey come to think about it...

Anybody looking for a CHEAP! oem honda 90-91 CRX rear bumper cover in need of some primer and paint?? lol. I have since stripped most of the **** paint off because I wanted to see how it looked underneath...luckily wasn't too bad

 

Heres a vid of a dude in an ep3 chasing me on my first track day at toronto motorsport park.
