Insurance has written the Accord off as a total loss; a claims rep called later telling me I would need to go to their office to take care of their settlement tomorrow.

The value of the car was higher than I expected, but with the gap insurance, it'll be enough to pay off the loan.

So I'm now carless.

>>17828541
Fuuuck so you end up having to pay out of pocket for your next car? Fucking trees, man. Hope you guilt tripped the neighbors.

Are you forced to pay of the rest of the loan or can you just postpone it for now to get another car?

>>17828704
It's not too bad on the Corolla. It's on the front left kinda hugging the radiator. I've bent a bunch of radiator fins changing that bitch twice. Civic seems like a pain since it's in the back right chilling under the intake manifold.

At least our starter motor is easier to reach.

There's a spot near me that's perfect for hooning. And since everybodys shit was working, had 2 race

>>17829336
Who won?

>>17829345
First race, start from a 10mph roll.
I started in first, I guess he started in 2nd. I jumped out and was ahead through all of 1-2-3 and 4th up until about 110mph when we started going uphill and his torque did its job. (his 2.4L vs my 1.8)

2nd race also 10mph roll we went downhill and he tried to start in first. I think his vtec cut out in first gear because lol no oil pressure and so I got so far ahead he couldnt catch.

Both times he started like a nose ahead of me though cause hes a fucking cheater lmao.

We didn't really get a clean run in but then the cops were all over looking for us and on the way back one got behind him and followed for a good 1/4 mile and was going to pull his ass over but we signaled and turned onto my driveway

Also his exhaust is so loud it popped my ear

>>17829385
Als let me just say once we were going uphill it wasnt even close. I couldnt gain any more rpm after 7000 and he kept winding it up no problem. That torque is serious

>>17829385
Sounds like it's aroun my Supra's lead unless your CRX is faster than when I raced it before

>>17829489
my girlfriend was in the crx when we raced and i had random craigslist tires on.

Selling my motorcycle to buy a new daily because my current daily is on its way out. How's this look to you guys? I know nothing about Hondas apart from their ease of maintenance, reliability, and massive community.

Hypothtically this would obviously be my fuel-efficient commuter, but are these things any fun in the canyons? I'm really going to miss carving the twisty roads and hopefully this can at least try to be sporty in the corners.

I want an AH

So far, I've found three cars...

1996 Geo Prizm LSi

2003 Honda Accord EX Coupe

2004 Honda Civic VP Coupe
https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?listingId=462035663

The Prizm will give me cheaper insurance.
The Accord will allow me to retain my CM pride.
The Civic is just a Civic... less fuel to put in.

Neither the Prizm or Civic have a tachometer; I can drive manual without one, but I like seeing the needle go up and down.

The Prizm will allow me to own a Corolla and have money to afford it.

I got my 94 Corolla a month before I got fired from my screen printing job in 2013; it took me 4 months to find another job (because of laziness) and right before I could get paid, the engine blew from lack of oil.

So this could give me the chance to take care of one properly.

There's a used 1992 Honda Prelude Si Coupe for sale near my area for $2.5k.
156,972 miles on it.

I just found out my engine made 100hp from the factory for the na market. Subtract 20 for the 4AT and maybe 25 for the 30 years its been going.
I've been fucking around with roughly 55hp with a 4AT

>>17830315
It's really not that bad. Just undo that one mount and they all slide out easily. That mount is only for dampening so you don't need to hold anything up with a jack.

If your AC belt squeals after changing, just tighten the tensioner with the AC on and the car running until it stops being noisy.

Anyone with EF/EDs in here?

No problem. Only annoying thing unlike most other cars is that it's recommended to take a wheel off to get better access to the mount.

>>17830412
Yeah was expecting to do that. And perhaps that underside flap on the frontbumper. According to the manual you need to measure the tension with a gauge from the underside of the belts.

so I got gt6 finally and paired with the race wheel it feels alright. why is the city so oversteer heavy?

car related though, should I attempted to change head gasket in my car or just take it to a shop? they are quoting like 200-300$ to change it and I'm not entirely sure the head gasket is what's leaking.

>>17830452
>$300 for a head gasket
That's pretty good for a shop, the shop near my house quoted $475 to reseal a leaky valve cover.

>>17830344
Really can't imagine it losing that much breakyhorses over the years.

There's this program on youtube that tests all sorts of cars on how close they come to their original hp rating after xx years.
Honda is usually on the mark, exactly- sometimes even over. Even the oldest high mileage shitboxes.
examples:

DC5 +1 bhp / 100k
EK4 -1 bhp 144k

>>17830456
d17a2 has an 80$ head gasket that's relatively easy to take out for it's year just parents are spooped I'll fuck it up doing it myself.
but again I have no idea if it's the head gasket leaking. there are many things it could be, like the stripped valve cover bolt, the block scraping my driveway, it ran with no dampeners for a year, and a wreck that bent the radiator and caused the power steering to leak somewhere but I have no idea where the power steering is leaking too.

>>17830465
slight modifications can help it get to stock projections of hp. that's how my car (probably if this cam and intake are giving it gains) is reaching slightly above what it's hp is listed at. but this is kinda obvious shit.

guys if I get a crz at the end of the year should I go ahead and change the imi cause most listings are of 2011 with less than 100k miles for less than 10k USD. anyone got a crz?

>>17830470
These were all stock tho.

>>17830492
I wanna know how much power the D16Y7 in my old Civic makes. It's gotta be the slowest D16 of all time. Something weird with that thing. Kek

>>17830514
d series seems to drop off hard. maybe the cam and crank had too much wear on yours.

>>17830542
You should hear it crank up. It sounds like death. Once it starts up though it sounds fine. Still much much slower than my D16A. The automatic only adds to the slowness.

>>17830489
I've got a 2013 CRZ 6mt. Great car for what it is... Really try to find one with the newer lithium ion battery. And avoid the CVT unless you like doing frequent fluid changes.

>>17830557
I'm gonna have to get used to cvt anyways and I've got some experience working with them. most are in the mile range for safe fluid change so I'm not too concerned about that. only listings I find are for 2011 and 2015 though. really most cvt ones I see are low enough cost and new enough even if I had to change cvt belt, timing belt and lithium battery I'd have an overall better deal of total cost for the year of the car than say a Civic or accord of the same year. I'm just concerned if what I've read is accurate about the warranty and longevity of the battery. will it shit out after 8 years?

Got a question for my ground control nihgas
the springs say they are coilover conversion, but will fit on oem shocks. Does this mean there is no additional hardware needed to mount and it will fit right on like oem springs? Im wondering in the case that i need to get a spring compressor

>>17830601
I've had mine since 2013... and have not even given a thought to the battery longevity. IIRC, there is a seperate 10 year warranty on the battery anyhow.
It's a fun car. I don't know what the hell i'd replace it with if anything happens to it. It's a perfect little 2 person transport module for my wife and I, since we both work at the same place and commute together.

>>17830672
I know when you order them, you gotta state what you'll be fitting them on. For my case it was my Koni shocks. No spring compressor was needed at all, as the springs just dangle there until the car sits on them. I assume it's the same for the OEM shocks version.

>>17830695
>17830695
awww shieeeet i guess i save 75 dollarydoos when i get em
thanks man im looking forward to ordering some

>>17830717
No problem bro. Mine are still running great. Don't see myself ever replacing them just because I like that I can replace the shocks as they get worn. Would probably be a bitch on a full coilover kit. The Eibach springs they use will probably last longer than the car, too.

>>17830741
ah fuck i just realised i need the top hat hardware from the old shocks lmao fucking monroe

>>17830682
so the 10 year warranty for insight also goes on the crz then. well that's good. I was worried it was still on the 8 year warranty. I've heard newer lithium ion batteries hit around 180k miles and have some battery drop off in charge after 6-8 years but stay within 80% of the original charge. I can probably deal with that.

This stock knob in mine is like this, a stitched leather one. It's pretty worn and kind of goofy

I have a replica metal Mugen ball knob and it does get a little hot on a Southern summer day but it's still very tolerable.

Stock Integra looks to be a similar shape to my stock one. I can't go back to it after changing it. The shifts feel much better.

Most people with stock manual cars usually don't go beyond changing the knob so I wouldn't worry too much about that.

>>17830895
Aluminum doesn't conduct heat/cold as much as other metals, so you should be okay.

>>17830917
But I thought aluminum does conduct thermal energy iirc? The real ITR knobs are made out of titanium, I assume for that reason

>>17830917
>>17830925

I am actually wrong, my bad. It does conduct heat/cold well. Got it mixed up with the titanium ones you mentioned since the Type-Rs come with them standard.
Get the titanium knob instead then?

>>17830930
I'd love to get a titanium one but can't justify spending $100+ on a shift knob right now. Maybe I'll settle for the aluminium

are you checking the dust boots for the sliders and regreasing them if they're in good shape?
also sometimes if the clips that the pads actually ride on are in rough shape, they'll cause squealing.

I doubt i can find calipers under 100$ ea since absolutely no one in my city carries parts for my car
>>17832032
Slider pins are freshly greased, clips have been wire brushed to mirror shine, the part of the caliper they fit in has been filed and brushed to metal and anti-seized

Wagner OEspec pads and Certified rotors so i guess maybe its because they're cheap

Sixth or seventh gen civic for my first Honda? Will be doing mostly motoway driving for a few months

>tfw will never get to experience [ C O O L V I B R A T I O N S ] because all the civic hatches here are rusted to shit, broken severely, don't run or are riced to shit and overpriced

>>17831984
So it would be a good buy if I just wanted a gas-saver commuter? I just want something to get me to/from class (about 50 miles round-trip daily) and would be easy to maintain.

Fun is really secondary since I have roads that are fun pretty much regardless what car I'm in.

>>17832386
If you have the money then import one straight from Japan. That sweet JDM RHD.

>>17832468
I'm a poorfag so right now I'm just looking for something sub $1500 to drive for a while, but in general the whole area is shit.

I don't know what the cost to import a decent one from japan would be, but I'd imagine something could be found in FL or someplace rust free in the US would be a better option.

>>17832544
Florida is a hotspot for Japanese cars. My hatch came to Louisiana from there actually.

>>17832320
Not sure. 7th gens are compacts so they're a tad bigger, but 6th gens are in my opinion better looking and more people seem to like them/ there certainly seem to be more around. Really for highway driving it would come down to if you can stand road noise in an economy car.

>>17832555
I can't think of a worst place than here to buy a car.

Going to have to scrap my Taurus because of rocker rust, at least back in WI I could drive it untill it caved in half.

I'd like to go to florida and buy literally anything, I was looking at old 80's-90's f150's there and was crying inside due to how clean they are.

>>17832591
Yeah that's the best thing about the south. Real downside is the lack of fun roads and hurricanes this time of the year. There is not a bit of rust on my car and nothing was even done to prevent it.

I mean, it's the gross Suzuka Blue with slightly less gross blue interior, but if it's cheap for the mileage and you don't mind the color I say go for it.

S2k's with that kind of mileage in that color are usually owned by the same type of old people that drive Miatas, so it should be well cared-for and not beaten on very hard.

lol, I think del is overall better at drag racing and knows how to drive his car better than I drive mine. He basically won both races. Second race definitely got oil starved in first and second cause I'm dumb. First race I started in second because I thought I could just do that and beat him off the line, kek. wrong.

All this amounts to is just excuses, I know. Let me practice my launches, get a wider, flatter piece of road, and we'll make an entertaining vid for /hg/

pic related my oil level after I got home and let it cool down all the way. I've fallen out the habit of checking it regularly.

Same with tire pressure. Checked my passenger rear yesterday morning and it was 10psi below all the others. Filled it up and it was down 10psi again by the time I left work. Went to discount tire, they found a nail. Patched it about an hour and all they asked was that I come back and buy tires some time. Pretty legit.

They were unpopular in Japan not only because of the polarizing styling but because the early gen 3 Integras would catch snow in the indents for the headlights. It's why the later USDM ones got flush headlights and the JDM ones went with aping the gen 2 look.

I'm not too familiar with hondas or cars in general, but what would be a fair price for a 3rd gen Honda Prelude Si (2.0)?

It has rust/rot on the quarter panels in front of all 4 wheels, but it seems like the rust only affected the outer panels and not the frame itself. I didn't get a great look underneath, but the frame seems rust free
The guy wants around 2000 dollars for it which seems a bit too high for something like that. I checked the KBB and Edmunds appraisal tools, but they typically arent great at getting accurate market prices for old sports cars

>>17841707
Old 4 door civics make my dick feel funny.

Depends on other stuff. If you can post the ad that'll be great

It wasn't an online ad, it was just parked on the side of the road. The car hasn't been moved in a while from what I can tell. There were some cobwebs underneath the car and the brake rotors are covered in rust. The tires are also low on air.
Mileage is 160,000 miles and the for sale sign says he wants 2250 dollars "non negotiable"

passenger side rear quarter panel rot

I also noticed that the driver's side quarter panel was dented in inwards, and I'm afraid it might block the driver's door from opening

Oh well, my ek4 is still fun to drive

Want to get rid of heavy steel 18" wheels on a 5thgen prelude but unsure if i should go to 17" or back to stock 16". Not planning on lowering anytime soon but would like to keep the option.

>>17846510
If you want the most comfort, get 16"s.

>>17846524
With stock tire size? I could also save a little extra dollars with smaller tire width/aspect.

should I drop ~11k on a low mileage 2016 corolla or should i drop ~13k on a 2016 civic? no bias pls

>>17847522
I'd get the rolla if you hate CVTs, cause you're getting one with that automatic 10th gen.

>>17847533
Fuck a CVT. He'd be better off getting a 9th gen Si if he can get one for that price range.

>>17847522
Coolrolla if both manual or if civic is auto
Civic manual if corolla is auto

This is just great...
The dealership closed early so I'm not able to look at the Prizm or Celica, so out of desperation, I'm going to the Honda dealership to look at the 2002 Accord they have. I'm not keen in getting it because it's a V6 automatic, but I have to get something today so I can work tomorrow.

>>17834182
jeesus those wheels are awful

>>17848004
The car is still under inspection when I checked it out. The radiator was fucked up.

>>17849822
There's a stanced 9th gen civic Si coupe with a Night Kids sticker in the dame spot (rear quarter window) but his was on the driver side.

>>17850028
If it's manual and you can buy it for $4.7k then I'd say go.

>>17849190
>>17849247
I was planning on pointing out the flaws and offering a much lower price. (maybe 1000-1500 bucks?) I hope the guy doesn't get too pissy over that

>>17850045
How high is too high for miles on an autotragic one

>>17850082
I wouldn't worry about the miles, just drive it and see how it feels, my CM is very lurchy on the trans and it's 109k miles.

>>17850082
10k per year is my rule of thumb so it has too many miles for my standards.
Also I don't recommend auto Hondas unless you test drive it and it's smooth and there's a constant trans fluid service interval that goes along with the recommended interval according to the owner's manual or if you're going to buy it brand new. Make sure you NEVER neutral drop it and try to not drive aggressively. Honda auto's aren't as reliable as their manual counterparts.

>>17850246
I drive aggressive as fuck in my honda auto and its perfect at 186k miles

Explain

>>17850254
My buddy reported some issues with the D16 auto in my old car. Though a week later he said it's fine again.

>>17850254
It's a hit or miss kind of thing. It's more problematic with v6's. I've seen multiple transmissions explode from neutral dropping but again, they were v6 Accords. The number one cause for auto Honda's shitting the bed is chronic neglect of transmission fluid.

>>17850271
I changed it at like 150k miles or something

Works good

It's up to you what pic you wanna use for the collage. I'll put that one unless you want something else. The best pics are when the text can contrast clearly and do not block the car prime examples in pic related (93 & 90 civic)
