I know right? Lol



Hey man, yeah Im keeping it for now. I do plan on a special car 2 years from now though, the prices on the Evos are ridiculous for the amount of miles and crappy mods.

Nice man. I really like that thing and I’m not one for st’s. When I crashed my si I was looking into buying cars and did not want to start over in payments. Bummed me out even more crashing that thing.

So I installed a cheap deck and speakers in the hatch. What a wiring nightmare. I ended up bypassing the harness and running all sorts of wire as u can see in the background. But at least I have some jammy jams now. And with the windows up it doesn’t sound all that bad but I def need some bass. Maybe a woofer at the end of the month. Also repainted my window seals cause I was super bored today. And...... took some plumeria cutting from my aunts the other day. Looks like one is already coming back.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who was bored out of their mind today [emoji23]. Only day off I have this week and I didn’t know what to do with myself! Ended up driving with a friend of mine from Tampa to Downtown Orlando. We were picking up what was advertised as a complete transmission with a clutch, shifter mount and everything for the BRZ we are rebuilding. Get there and it had more rust than actual metal, didnt even have a clutch or the shifter assembly we really needed (ours broke during the accident the previous owner got into). So we just took some backroads home and called it a day.

Thanks man, I appreciate it! The car is a blast to drive. Yeah I heard about that, sorry for the loss man, atleast you’re ok. How about get a cheaper car like an 8th gen Si? Or how about test drive an ST lol or even a mazdaspeed3? I didn’t like them until I test drove one. I honestly never thought about owning a ford. They’re pretty fun cars, you can find earlier models cheap and they make decent power with bolt ons. The hatch is looking good! If you want a decent system I have a brand new kicker amp and wiring for sale if you’re interested, all you would need is the sub.

Nah just messing with u guys. Actually did quite the opposite. Gave her a good detail inside and out and got around to installing the trunk brace. I will NEVER sell this car. When u ever gonna see a civic come stock with a k24 again?View attachment 57926View attachment 57927View attachment 57928View attachment 57929 Also gave my dog a flea bath. He’s pissed.

@ron v I was looking at those FKX subframe braces for my SI. But I heard that you had to remove the underbody cover (diffuser) to rock one of these. you are driving without yours right?

Soon my friends! Picked up these gems from one of my good friend for an insane deal. Cant wait to get these hooked up! Thankfully I will not be doing the wiring, one of my other friends volunteered for the sake of my car lol. My wiring jobs are not really the best and id prefer for this to be a reliable setup. Hopefully ill learn something from watching him too, since I know very little about car audio.
