Default CW '01-#1260 Status

Hey fellows,

I just finished getting everything done with my crashed ITR. The insurance company total lossed it and towed the car back up to Canada. I was going to try and buy it but some stupid Canadian thing says that I can't purchase it without a license? I dunno. I'm not Canadian. But anyway- the interior of the car was destroyed- 36 eggs are not very nice to smell when it sat in the tow company lot for the weekend under 100 degree sun. To make a long story short- as you can tell from my signature- my parents replaced it with a '02 Accord V6. They don't want another manual unless I purchase it myself. Oh well. I'll still be on here reading and asking...and saving for my own ITR in the future. I did manage to take the center console for the serial number and the shift **** just for sentimental value. Just wanted to update ya'll on the crash. They still haven't caught the **** in the riced out Neon. Baltimore- the worse city in the world for crime. Thanks to those in MD that came and bought my parts. Vic- hope you're enjoying that Apex'i N1.

Sorry to hear that.

Sounds like someone in Canada will be able to buy a spare long block and interior now...

On the bright side, I've heard that v6's respond well to mods.

I remember seeing a hks car that was turbo'd... Nice!

To ITR009- here is the thread:

To Black R,

I dunno if it's even worth it to MOD the V6. It comes automatic ONLY...which is what the parents wanted. That's already a disadvantage. But anyway- thanks to all the 90 views...and 2 replys...

Damn Lee that sucks...I've been hitting Metro up lately and it would have been sweet to have another R there. Vic's car sounds pretty nice, too bad he's always stoned when he drives

Sorry about your loss man. That ******* sucks. You should have hit your parents up for an RSX-S, too bad it doesnt come in auto.

Dude, sorry about your loss. I guess that good news is that if the V6 accord engine is a variety of TL-S and CL-S, then you should see a huge gain w/ headers and exhaust. I'm sure you probably have to mess with some internal parts and the ECU, but shouldn't be too bad to rig up a 300 HP V6 accord.

Thanks- haha...come up some time- I wanna see your R. No Type-S. anything with racing in it- my mom hates for now. But whatever- I got a SWEET deal on the EX-V6 up in canada. I'm telling you- canadian cars are ******* CHEAP. The '02 EX-V6 was only $21,000 or so. That's like 4 grand cheaper than MSRP here. Anyway- I might get a wing or something- it looks ugly without one.

Oh Cosworth- Please explain about engine. I don't know jack about Accords...

Time to support yourself and get your own car. "My mom said I couldn't mod it." LOL...
