Go to http://www.kutsujuracing.com/forum many of the members are stationed in Germany too.

The biggest german Honda forum also has an english section: http://www.hondapower.de/porta...id=25.

why waste money and bring your car over there...sell your car, and buy a EDM VT or 1.6i-16v, then ship that bitch back over here...

I agree, leave your car here in storage(or with a trusted relative).
Pick up an EDM CRX while you're there...keep all the goodies when you come back and put them on your usdm CRX.

Greetings from Europe.

I suggest to buy a CRX from Germany, i also purchased mine from there. CRX's are very cheap around there. 1.000-5.000€. And in Ed9 CRX theres always at least D16A9 (Dohc 16v)

You can always buy a 1.6VT (B16A1), prices from 2.000-10.000€

Parts are ******* expensive here in europe.
Load the duffel bag full of stuff, and sell it over here to make a few nice bucks on the side.

Then bring another car with you home

So you get to take any car with you?
Why not take something with you that you could resell for a profit once your there?
My buddy was telling me that his brother took a Mustang and sold it for some ridiculous profit. I don't know how many Germans actually want a Mustang, but the concept is sound.

So to the euro guys...what would be a good candidate?

that ^ is a good idea dude. to the original poster, you should consider bring a car with you that will make you a good profit. like a Chevelle or something.

Look here "private"! It's not a "job code", it's your MOS. Your MOS is 25F! Get it straight! Second, your *** is going to Iraq, you dont need to worry about bringing your car here to Germany. That should be the last thing on your mind. Didnt you see Bush got re-elected? That really sucks for us in the Army. We fight for him and his boys to get richer! But to answer your question, it's better to get your parts shipped APO. Its the same as United States Postal Service. That's what I do. Shipping is not expensive through USPS. There are also performance shops and Dynos over here. If you need help just hit me up!
