heyitsstock · Post by **heyitsstock** » Sun May 13, 2007 8:41 pm

alright well... it happend

ek hatchs and coupes grew on me and stuck.... i have fought the honda fad long enough.....

do i still like neons yep do i still like my neon... yes... and actually the only thing that bothers me is the auto tranny.... the four doors i can live with....

so i have been looking around at different cars and my list is as follows due to price range

ek hatch
s-15 240
and like a 97 teggie

but comeing around ones that havent been molested... is quite impossible

here is want a final project ek hatach to look like

SSo you want to sell your turbo stuff because you're tired of the "racer" stereotype....But you wanna buy the biggest "racer" stereotype? Man.

J/K bro, it's all in fun, good luck finding an unmolested honda though. Every little kid has molested their parent's car so far. Just keep your car right now as a good DD.

I just bought a 1997 EK Hatch, in black of course. Price was way to good to pass up. It has 30k less miles than my Neon so I'm gonna use it as a DD and get the Neon off the road for a while and finish it. Then most likely swap the Honda motor and auto-x or track it.

Thats the plan as of today anyway!

put on your flame suite dude...j/k. I like Hondas. Cheap, easy to mod and have a ridiculiously large aftermarket for them.

i loves me a clean hatch too, but selling the neon for a hatch FTL

A Honda? You mean like this?

Okay, I'll confess, I had one just like this (only in white and with a trunk, not a hatch). But that was in 1979.

You should see one of those hatches that puts down over 600whp and runs nearly 10.0 flat in the 1/4. Makes them look even more appealing. The guy that runs Revline motors where we dyno'd this weekend has the previosly described car.....i want.

DUDE, my mom traded her 67 barracuda in on one of those, she hates herself for it so much!

I have always been partial towards civic hatches, you can prolly still find unmolested hatches....but good luck anyways!

wheres the pics?

on topic....I dont konw if ive fallen yet

If I sell the volvo, its either an ek hatch or a neon....Im so undecided. Its very hard to find an unmolested ek hatch. There is a really clean white one rolling around here, and a navy blue one that theydont want much for, thats compltely stock, but I dunno

Hatches rule.

But I'm biased.

You just can't make up your mind on what you want for a second car can you?

Something black is what I would choose. Turbo the crap out of it and then go whomp on some big baller STI and EVOs.

heyitsstock · Post by **heyitsstock** » Tue May 15, 2007 1:36 pm

The thing I can't stand about most compact cars like Civics and Neons is FWD=FTL.

Not always. But you're still in high school, right?
So I'll let that one slide

Still, I prefer RWD over FWD.

I had my mind made up..I dont want to get rid of it, I love the volvo.But it would be good for me to go back to school and to do that, I have to cut some bills off, and that is my biggest one besides rent. I wont go back till next spring or summer, but still, it would be nice to save that money. I could make another neon nice. As long as it runs, and has no mechanical issues and looks fairly decent I think I would be happy. Wouldnt be baller like the volvo LMAO, but would get me from point a to be and get better gas milage.
