What'd you do to your accord today?

Btw I went junkyarding again Saturday but no 01-02 sedan tails.

Thanks for checking again. Matt's been keeping a look out as well, he found one set that was apparently mint, but they want $140.......not likely.

Yeah, I can't leave stuff stock either. I'd just sell all the stuff on my 6th gen now and buy coilovers asap.

Going to test drive it today.... Haven't driven a manual in like a year so bear with me here

And.....there you have it, folks!

I'm really wanting to go back to the junkyard and pick up a TL gated shifter that I saw...

I realized that the TL shift gate fits much better than the Prelude one, you should do it.

I want it, but it would take time to grow on me.
Also trust me I wouldn't pay that much, on the down low, I got my 6th gen for 2.5 out the door

I think they wanted 7 for it full price. But I would be able to trade my car in, possibly for 2.5 again, and then get the 7th gen for like 3.5. This is all speculation, idk what the trade in on the 7th gen is. Imma see if I can go drive it today real quick.

bro please do that deal! that is too good of a deal! & once modded those 7th gens look sexy. as show in the pic above!

Just finished the test drive. Fun, fast, and comfortable. I love it, possibly too much.

Unfortunately, it could end up costing more than I originally imagined. So if I do it mods may take a while as I may need a slight loan from the rents. So I'm having it looked into. Would have taken pictures but I was admittedly a little nervous, and kinda forgot to

Went well considering how long it's been and how little experience I have with manuals, and that it had one more gear then I've ever done. Went on 270, got up to 110 to test its power band, I know not the best idea, and I did some traffic driving through Rockville. Overall very very impressed. Hoping this will work out, but I'm leaving the country Wednesday morning for a week, so it'll be a while before I make a decision.

As long as you make a well informed/mature and most importantly, responsible decision about it, I am sure it will all work out for the best.

Enjoy the vacay.
