Project 1997 ITR #280

[Mike]

looks expensive to convert your usdm car to usdm.

[navin]

Ricer's still love JDM front ends and JDM recaros -- not too bad of a difference.

[Mike]

usdm is the new jdm? glad i'm far removed from "the game" because that is blasphemous.

[navin]

Nothing to do with the "game" or whatever stupid slang people call it -- i hated that shit back then, and still do. It's about preference, and always wanting a 97 ITR. I'm not entering this car in Hot Import Nights or whatever to impress some dipshit show car judge, just building it for myself since I might pull a Mikey and get rid of the hatch.

Nothing wrong with the JDM front end -- some are done right, and most are not. Recaros and other bling was a no brainer because I had stock replacement parts for them, so it was all $$ in my pocket to fund the "blasphemy"

[Mike]

oh so you're anti-game. yeah, that's not hip.

This might be my favorite part yet

This thing is going to redefine clean the way you're going. Excited to see parts start coming together.

[.RJ]

I like, I very excite!

[Goodspeed]

Very nice. I love shiny clean stuff. I also hope you're going to have LoJack with three failsafe transmitters :lol:

[navin]

Sending dog to attack dog school... should do.

Joey (yellow m3, sorry i suck at remembering names).. I might need to call you and Jake up to help drop the gas tank. That's unless RJ wants to start wrenching on shitbox honda's...that aren't motorcycles.

[JPolen01]

Very nice. I love shiny clean stuff. I also hope you're going to have LoJack with three failsafe transmitters :lol:

That or wiring the fuel pumps to a secondary switch or disconnecting the ecu.

[Kaan]

looking good man!

Autofair Honda are good people

[navin]

Kaaaaaaaaaan! I forget that you're in the area as well.... I can't con you to help wrench with smokes, so whatcha drinking these days

Autofair is "OK" -- Colin is a good dude, prices are about the same as Del-Ray -- but it's nice to be able to call up and confirm things I might be unsure of.

[Jake]

You can con me, Joey and Kaan all to help with beer, usually. You know where we live, hit us up!

[Kaan]

ha you dont have baller status with them yet. i get shit on the cheap.

I drink whatever. just let me know and i'll ride over.

[navin]

I'm about to drop "baller status" on Autofair in a bit... I better get a t-shirt this time.

ps. I better not finish this car before the K-CRX

[Kaan]

i'm looking at a difference chassis so you might and more personal shit comes up weekly it seems. but i'm only missing a few parts right now.

I was buying and flipping parts with Rich and Colin... sending them big time clients (shops), etc.

if you need a hand dropping the tank let me know. if you need a tool i might have just call.

ps- i think they are out of shirts lol or drop names

[navin]

wrd.

maybe we should just throw the K in my EG.

[Kaan]

your EG or the one i buy

[JPolen01]

your EG or the one i buy

Please make this happen. There is nothing I love more than a clean k swapped eg.
