Default its time

sorry for the non-appearance like post. but my car is seen alot in this section of H-T. so....

there comes a time in peoples lives when you need to move on, and sadly, i think it has..or maybe comming soon. as much as i enjoyed it and want to continue and hit up the tracks.. i have missed a lot of things.

i miss being able to take my girlfriend out in my car without her feeling uncomfortable because of my suspension.. i miss being able to go to a movie with her or my friends because i'm too scared of it getting stolen. i missed out on a lot of my life because i devoted a lot of my time to my car.

i think its time for me to move onto true priorities. i think the people in my life shouldn't come second to my hobby.. and it should definately not hurt them. and i think that its time to invest into a house, tools for my future, and into a deserving girlfriend.. or whatever may come of this situation. and at the moment, i have lost the passion for my car.

with that said (sorry its so long).. i am planning (keyword: planning. you guys know that i change my mind an infinite amount of times) to part out my car from the ground up. and no, this is not another "haha jk, i'm really going to rebuild it from the ground up" sort of thing like i did last time. but before i set this word in stone, i am going to give Sunshine one last "hoo-rah" and then let it be.

so if anyone is interested in any of the parts on my car.. save up incase, and wait until i finalize things.



the parts i am planning to sell include:

- complete motor
- complete obd1 conversion + p28 + hondata s200
- JDM ITR Recaros in Yellow
- Spoon Cluster
- complete 5 lug conversion
- anything from the exterior
- Cusco rollcage
- Carbing front and rear strut bars, J's pillar bar
- complete suspension (coilovers, sway bar, lca)
- basically ANYTHING.

but just keep in mind that anything you want to buy, i will probably need the stock part back.. motor, cluster, 4 lug, etc. because i will eventually sell the shell or drive a yellow HB around with a 4" lift.

again, no offers until i finalize things.

(note: Bryant told me that the first paragraph sounded a lot like someones post here on H-T.. lol, total coincidence. VERY wierd)

One day I'll be in your shoes. I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

You do have one of the cleanest EK's ever.

The good news is a lot of people will have your different parts and will keep the memory alive.

the irony. the picture in this thread was from the first and last time i took my car to SoCal. and that trip is a major reason this whirlwind downward has happened.
friends aren't always friends.. thats just something i'll remember and might have to live with the rest of my life.

and its not just the car i'm speaking of.. getting rid of it to get me and my girlfriend back on track is the main goal here. what comes of this is crucial to my school / career.. and i would like to save it all.

Jonas I understand what you mean I feel the same way sometimes, but hopefully you'll get it all together and be back in the scene.

Anyways some of those parts will live on when I put them on my car
