good buy but who was the owner of that its in ruff shape, what alls wrong with it, and they obviously cant primer worht s**t
The good the bad and the ugly
Well when i first bought the car it was crap. The most obvious thing is that he lowered the car by cutting the springs. The car was so low that it scraped going over speed bumps. In the hatch it had a speaker box that fitted two 12's and four 10's. That box was so damn heavy that i had to take a sluge hammer to it and then take it out in pieces. As you can see the interior is just crap period. He painted eveything blue even the fuse box and inside the vents and he took out the vents and put a milk carton over it to try and "smooth" it out. The driver's side door had huge amouts of fiberglass on it that covered three large holes the size of baseball. The passenger side door was shaved with no keyless entry kit and has a piece of sheet metal rivited over it covering something. No low beam lights, reverse light, front turn signal lights (top or bottom). The relay under the dash keeps acting funny and I have to tap it to get the damn thing to turn. In the engine compartment with it being the carburated model he put a cold air intake around it with electrical tape and moved the battery in the back, but instead of doing it the right way he just spliced it with jumper cables. The guy who had it before
The Good
As of now i sanded down the body as smooth as I could do. I got all the fuses in and and all the lights work. I got some cheap coilovers form ebay (The best investment with the worst results). The center talilight and new passenger side door. I still got a lot to do.

wow the electrical tape tahts a good one
Oh man I don't even think I can call that a good find. I'm going to have to call that car a big f**king headache. Thats a lot of work and money just to fix that crap he rigged up. And since when did 4g's come carbuerated? Maybe its got dpfi and your just mixed up?

Jeez, yeah thanks for repeating what I said...
lol, yeah man sorry about the additude.
Hey man, don't listen to hybrid1990crx, I mean look at his avatar, he made it in Paint. Just kidding. If I had that I'd cream my drawers, so much potential. I see a Grant Le Mans wheel? Correct me if I'm wrong. Good luck and have fun
