My Z's were hands down the most fun and fastest cars i have ever driven. the car community is crazy. People love there Z's and there is everything you need to know about them and modding them online, thats why i bought another one after the first one. Basically with 1500 bucks you can up the HP to around 350-400 and be set with it. The reason i sold it is because it is nearly impossible to work on your self and all parts and repairs cost an arm and a leg, also only gets 16 mpg, but by far the best car i have owned.

Prelude was also super nice, on turbo it was very fast and still got 25mpg the best of both worlds, the reason i sold it was because i couldnt pick up traction anymore at around 9psi of boost and i was tired of smog ref tickets etc, i must have taken off my turbo kit about 4 times before i finally said the hell with CA and decided legal LOL. If i did it all over again i would save the money and go greddy all the way and be fast and legal. I actually wish i still had my prelude that car was fun to drive even at stock, but i jumped the gun and sold it two fast :(.

With the 240 you are going to have a lot of fun, i was leaning towards one myself before the accord, the only reason i steered clear was because once again an sr20det swap would not have been smog legal and i dont want to spend the time finding "hookups" and mechanics who know the swap anymore.....Anymore questions just PM me man :)

Yea it can cause me to grind if too much of it bunches up behind the clutch i want to find a fix asap. I found this, but i cant seem to find a place where i can buy just the part without the whole mat, if you can find it please let me know. This is the part http://www.thematsite.com/images/autofloormatimages/Mat-fastner-installation.jpg

interesting product.. never seen it before. it gave me an idea tho, i think we can use those picture hanging hooks with the sticky backs to create posts for the mat to nestle into on the top and bottom, prolly won't budge then i think :confused:
