If its it going to be your daily then buy the GS-R. If you have a daily and this will be a summer/weekend car then buy the RS.

>>16548025
Yeah this is going to be a weekend/fun project. I really do dig the idea of making it my own from an RS but I'm also weighing resale value. I know no man what I do it's still an RS and won't have the residual value the GS-R will

Just get the GS-R anon. You will never have true VTAKs even if you do a LS-VTEC mod, and depending on where you are it will never pass emissions.

As far as insurance costs, it shouldn't be all too much, it is a honda after all.

If this is your only car do not start a build on it. The car will be decommissioned for an indefinite amount of time.

Of course, you can still do bolt ons and what not but it would be unwise to do a full motor build on your only vehicle.

Oh yeah, could you help me find it back :)

Here's the other side, which I haven't treated yet. Didn't bother to wipe the rain off for this pic obviously

>Meguiar's synthetic paste wax every few months but I might switch it up this time, washed bi-weekly using green ONR, touch ups using quick detailer. I only drive the car in nice weather so I can wait 2 weeks between washes without it getting too dirty.

>>16546801
>Every few months I strip the wax off, do minor paint correction if needed, then reapply Meguiar's synthetic paste wax, although I might try a different wax next time.
>Every two weeks or so I wash using green ONR. 2 buckets, grit guards, Chemical Guys wash mitts, waffle weave drying towels.
>In between washes I remove any water spots, bug splatters, or bird shits using quick detailer and a microfiber cloth.
>I clean the interior as needed but usually just wipe the dust off with a dry microfiber towel every week or so. Vacuum when needed, apply leather conditioner to all the leather every few months.
>Overall though the car doesn't get that dirty since I only drive it in nice weather and when I can have fun with it.

Why'd these posts get baleeted?

Before trying to fix this trim up I did a full clay bar on the car and it looks amazing, but there's a fair amount of shallow swirling on the car, mainly on the hood. Any paint correction tips?

Just finished washing up the dirt of this tincan

I'm restoring it and there's at least 3 rust points including one perforing under the oil cap

What should I apply to remove the rust and prevent it from rusting again ?

Any car manufactured in the US will stay cheap, everything manufactured outside the US will go up big league.

Didn't he just meet with a bunch of companies and tell them that there's gonna be tax for products that come across the border and tax incentives if they stay?

>>16544170
>>16544160
Don't know but I did hear about tax incentives for not leaving.

But what does that mean for cars that never were made in the US in the first place? Do they get a pass or do these taxes apply to everything?

Just noticed, that you went over the upper border with the iron cross. Don't forget to fix it.

Spotted recently: Euro plate with the old flag on an american truck at a construction site (rare over here)

Unfortunately the gubbermint has banned putting stickers on your plate, as well as fun in general, so I wonder when he's gonna get ticketed.

>truck buyers

>americans
>even trying to make luxury cars

the best american luxury car cannot even compete with the worst german/japanese luxury car.

cadillac makes rolling piles of trash catered to niggers, & lincoln sells cars to geezers to fucking stupid to spend their money elsewhere.

Insurance is dirt cheap on non primary vehicles if you add them as pleasure vehicles.

>>16541003
is this for aus or murka

We get fucked on insurance anyway, so it's usually cheap. Aside from that there's tax on used cars when you register it, but you can just straight up lie about how much you paid. Im pretty sure registration cost itself depends on state, and definitely depends on the type of vehicle.

All in all much cheaper than aussies.
