first to say thats a damn nice looking coupe. you bought it stock like that? hard to find one with very low miles(unless they swapped out the cluster), no rust, and bone stock. so how much did you have to pay for it? dealer or private seller? no pix of engine?

DUDE that thing is clean. Take care of it and don't half-*** anything like I did when I first got my car when I was 17. Take your time and do it right.

umm.. fix the muffler but im broke cause i bought the car this week.
but i got a guy local who will sell me the stock cat back from his 95 ex coupe for 70.
also theres a leak in the dizzy's o-ring so i gotta fix that.

then im gonna work on the suspension. try and find a good deal on some coilovers. the rear suspension needs to be redone anyways. its really bumpy.

im going to save here and there and hold off on wheels untill these tires lose life cause they are newish.

skunk2 exhaust headers, high flow cat and either an apexi ws2 cat back or posibly a tanabe.

gotta get the stereo working. (need the code for the head unit code, all speakers are beyond blown out)

really, i have a lot to learn. i thought i knew a lot but i was very wrong so no big deal. i actually love when i learn about car stuff

bought it from a really cool mid 20's lady for 2950. she always took it to the mechanic so its in really good condition. she even dropped 700 into a new radiator, waterpump, and timing belt the day that i bought the car. and she was super honest about everything.

I bet you have a alarm installed on the car, check in behind the glove box and under where your fuses are for the brain, I have had this on 2 cars I bought. The previous owner likely just lost the remote. Find out what brand it is and order a replacement remote of ebay. Either figure out how to reprogram it yourself or take it to a place that installs the brand of alarm it and they car reset it for you. Trust me alarm is step one before you do anything.

ya its a small black box, will have a small dial on it to adjust the sensitivity, once you start to mod your car it becomes a target, a alarm will give you a little peace of mind. good luck.... your car is sexy
