Hi Everyone. New Guy Checking In.
Hi everyone.
New here, primarily looking for some tech information and I have some questions.
My wife and I are a Honda family. Our daily driver (we work together so we really only drive one car) is a 2012 Civic EX-Nav. Our second car is a 2003 Civic LX. My primary motorcycle is a 2010 Shadow RS. My other motorcycle is a Honda CM200.
My main hobbies are being lazy, movies, TV, watching sports, and RC stuff...primarily drones. I also have a ton of bicycles that I should probably start riding more to get myself in better shape. I also have a LOT of pets...3 dogs, 5 cats, two crabs, and an axolotl.
I had been thinking for a while about getting a car to wrench on and just kind of mess around with...something to spend some time working on and making just a bit better as far as handling and stuff goes...but why spend $5k on a different car to then just spend money on when I can just spend the money on the 2003 Civic that's been sitting in the driveway not getting driven for the last few years?? I'm planning on doing basic mods to it...intake, exhaust, cam, and then suspension stuff...but I hope to do as much of it as possible myself, with the only exceptions being things that require specialized tools that I don't have access to (such as welding or painting). I know that the LX won't ever be a fast car...but I'm pretty sure I can make it fun to drive...and that's all that really matters to me.
I'm glad to be a part of the group here.
