My car has been stolen!
Guys,
My 1989 Honda red Civic STD hatchback, vin # 2HGED6341KH547807 was stolen out of my driveway last night while I slept. Be on the lookout for the following parts on the used market:
16x7 Buddy Club P1 QF in gunmetal with Yokohama A520s in 205/40-16. The wheels would be very easy to spot, since 2 of them have some small gouges on one of the spokes, about 1/2 way between the hub and the lip. Tires are worn, 2 of them have some camber wear on the outside, since I bought the tires used, and mounted them up with the worn portion to the outside.
Carbon Fiber hood, in good condition, also distinctive, as there is a small flaw in the weave that I could ID in a second.
Tein coilovers, non adjustable dampening, no helper springs, adjustment collars are the old style, with pure round aluminum, with 4 knotches cut out for wrenches. The rears are ITR style mounting, and the rear trailing arms are the 88 Civic ones (stamped steel, with eyelet style shock mounting).
1989 CRX Si front seats
Momo black leather steering wheel with black center section, and aluminum spacer to bring the wheel closer to the driver. Wheel not exactly like the one in the photo.
Momo shift ****, Race model, leather top, alloy bottom:
JDM SiR cluster with 9,500 tach and 180 kph speedometer, no miles per hour, and about 75,000 kms on the odometer.
Homemade short shifter, but this one will be hard to detect, because I did such a good job on it, it could be mistaken for store bought.
2 1/2" axle back exhaust, painted with black header paint. The paint shows some imperfections from the 1st paintjob flaking off. Walker Dynomax muffler, and several sections of mandrel bent piping, welded together to make up the piping.
There's more, but I can't think of it right now. If you guys hear anything, or come accross any of these parts, please let me know right away.
Thanks

Re: My car has been stolen! (Morphious)
i in NO way am trying to ROAST you for letting you car get stolen, but try this on for size.
i have that exact same stearing wheel on my car. you only NEEED 2 bolts really to hold it on. take the extra 2 minutes of your life to take the stearing wheel off everynight. i have been doing this for over a year now. and it is THE BEST theft deterent ever. even at the mall or where ever i go. i justr throw it in the trunk or where ever i can.grocery store...ill take it in with me in my cart.
but serious....we as tuners throw 1000$$$$ of dollars into our cars, only to have someone else try to get it when were slipping
. having a disconectable wheel is the BEST thing ive ever got, and i think everyone should look into it. from anywhere to 150-300 for wheels these days, its better then any alarm in the world, who pays attention to alarms anymore.usualy they jsut **** people off and are EASILY disconnected. unless you have LO JACK. look into this.
just my .02$
