#118245 thanks for all the replies guys :thumb:

it's been a good adventure, learned a lot but the thing was dare i say a "lemon" when i got it but the next big things are turbo :twisted: and body/paint which i'm thinking about re-painting a different color like black or silver, any thoughts?

thanks man, it added a nice touch and was pretty cheap, now i don't need a volt meter per-say in the cabin cause i don't have room for it lol

i have a nice bondo spot i need to cover/repair/re-paint....

there was a big rust hole that i repaired, but now it needs paint, tried the touch up paint from honda but it seemed to be too light, like real purple and it would not spray out of a gun so i might try some dupli-color stuff

true, but i got the car for free, and i just fixed it/modded it, so it's hard to justify buying a black coupe when i have this one :thumb: might just re-paint it same color or a shade darker

#118275 well since it was free.. you can buy a black hatch and have both :D.. my vote stands at keeping it the same paint code! BUT it's your balls you're gambling with :eh:

#119924 haha...this is true, there is some threats on my life if i decide to change it, but i just ordered my pistons and rods/bearings, etc. so i have some time to sleep on it... wanted to pull the motor, swap it in with out having to worry about f-ing up the paint.

a darker purple would be sweet but i don't want to start dabbling into the high tech/expensive paint...saving those expenses for what really counts :thumb:

i'm going to try and take a boat load of pictures for my engine build so i will keep this posted in a few weeks my *backordered* pistons come....turbo here we come!

#119937 if you get different wheels, maybe in 15's you will be slammed..well lower anyway. Not feeling the SI badge on the back and could use some smoked amber corners. But looks like a good project ..keep us posted

yeah, i was actually going to get some smoked ambers (messed up and got the black ones), the SI badge will be gone but the wheels will probably stay, i really like the 17's look and would hate to just be rotating wheels... i will definitely keep y'all posted tho, thanks for the advice 8)
