Default Memory Lane: My EJ1.

I still have the car, it just sits in my garage. I've been out of the 'scene' for a long time now. I have no interest in it anymore, although I can't see myself ever selling the car.











Motor is just the stock Z6 with I/H/E, nothing exciting.

It fit a lot worse when I originally got it; the pictures of it are the result of me correcting it the best I could.

I generally lost interest and got sick of dealing with all the 'children' in the scene. I bought a house and decided to spend my money on better things.

Meh. I could care less about 'real' wheels. Rotas are cheap and they look good. If I ever feel like modding my car again, the next thing on the list is a better set of coilovers, a new motor and another set of gold/bronze Rota wheels.

The car has expired tabs on it, and it needs emissions; so before I can even drive it I need to get that in order.

It does not. It's a USDM climate with the JDM plastic insert swapped in.

At the other extreme when the outside air temperature is very low the system will automatically go to the defrost setting for up to five minutes and will override the manual setting of the air distribution flaps pushing the air towards the front windscreen and it will set the air speed fans to low speed to avoid blowing cold air into the interior.
A quick Google search yielded that. Despite that's for a Ford, I reckon it can't be that much different for our Hondas.

LOL @ the noob douchebag. It's people like you that probably made this guy get away from Honda's in the first place. Sometimes I feel the same way about driving my hatch @ 32 years of age. But then I think, f*ck it, I love this thing and I don't care what others think. OP, the car looks great. I love it! You should drive it. F*ck the haters!

If you read his post the car was prob built before that color combo was "played out" what ever that means, besides I really doubt he cares.


Op I know exactly what you are saying, at 29 I still go to meets on occasion but I just get fed up with all the little kids..... It makes me want to build a BMW or some thing kids cant afford lol I just spend bucks on the house now too

Car looks clean though! if you like it drive it thats what I do. I live in WA too havent seen this car around
