View Full Version : Probably buying another DA.

Went to look at it last night, it's in pretty good shape, clean rear arches, no Honda-rot. It's a white special edition with palmy blue interior, which is also in great shape. I'm gonna go look at again today so I most likely will end up buying it this week. This way I can take my civic off the road to do all the work I have planned and I won't have to drive my truck. :TU:

Yeah, it'll be nice to be able to take my time and do the work right the first time around. Plus if I run into problems I won't have to worry about getting to work.

You better believe I will!
The guy I'm buying it from keeps trying to get me to sell my coupe or trade for the DA+cash. But that ain't gonna happen.

I've always wanted a DA but finding a rot free one proves to be difficult for me.

I know, its sucks. That's why I'm very eager to pick this one up because it has clean arches:TU:. My other DA was rusting very badly from the inside out and the more I stripped the car the more rust I found. It had also been in a front-end crash so nothing lined up right.
Notice how the hood sticks out too far, the headlight doesn't line up and the bumper is crooked.
It was really fun to drive though:TU:

that red one looks like a GSR?
3 of my friends have had the '92/'93 GSR's...one still has his, but his engine is going (the original B17).
i see old ladies driving around with mint ones locally..kind of a strange site cuz you wonder if they know what it's like to rev past 2500rpm!
white with the blue interior = LS i believe? it's fully loaded rite? (oem rims, power everything, sunroof?) post pics when you get it dood! :japanflag:

I wish the red one had been a GS-R. It was actually an RS. The white one I'm looking at is an LS Special Edition. It's weird, because it's got the map-lights like an SE, but the cloth interior is kinda throwing me off. My friend also has a special edition and it has leather so I'm not sure what's up. It's in good enough shape that for $700 I can't complain though. Should be picking it up tomorrow and I'll definitely post pics.

I was going to start ranting and talking my typical shit, but then I seen that you typed Civic, and plans:D
We are now ok again... DA's are cool, just not my personal preference as a car to modify. Id rock one as a daily driver though myself so goodshit:TU:

By one, make it a DAily Driver project, kinda corny but I thought it was a cool name.

Still trying to get a hold of this guy. I'm gettin' pretty pissed because I told him I would pick it up saturday and he said he was trying to meet up before 2. It's now 12:15 and I've heard nothing.

So yeah, still haven't heard from him and I'm sick of hearing his brother ask me to sell my coupe. So I'm really not trying to deal with these dudes anymore, just gonna save my money and wait until something better comes along.

haha, just noticed that, that's how I got my username HonDA9racer. Anywho, since I wasn't spending that money on another car, I bought some parts for mine:TU:

I had a DA before my coupe, loved it had for 7yrs. Would of kept it but my mom backed into and put a huge dent into the rear quarter panel.
