Wtf is twitter?
Laughin my ass off right now

It's just another social network site. People just post "statuses" saying what they're doing.

Quite lame. People say Instagram is twitter for people who can't read.

Lol @ scaring the 16 year old.

Just for conversation... What chassis would be your second pick?
right now i'm not sure. If I end up getting into something else, ill want be able to make use of my k24. So we'll see.

Sorry to hear man :-(
That's not a front facing car seat your using is it?
my Recaro baby seat is front and rear facing. The seat was being taken out. Don't worry, i'm not dumb enough to hurt or risk hurting my son.

Time for an rsx...
I considered that, but they've been targeted recently and i'm a little tired of living in panic. I don't know though. I kept tossing around ideas of using a hated chassis before I got this hatch, so I may go that route.
Yessss =)

But I think he already had one
yeah I had a black type s awhile back.

Damn bro im so sorry to hear that!! I know one thing tho, it'll be a pain to have to go through the entire process of getting it fixed properly which is freakin homo because it was so mjnt! Second, if she's frkm the Woodlands then believe she has money, and third if you part it out get ready to send the mirrors my way lol...

Well GL bro, i believe you'll get it right! If not then maybe its time to hop back in another coupe ;)
The parents were legit and accepted liability from the jump. Its all down to the cost of repairs.

Transferring everything over isn't enough. You do realize how close to mint this thing was when i bought it. It simply needed some cleaning and replacing of a few oem clips and minor pieces. Look at the vast majority of 96-00 civics that are second hand...they are usually destroyed.

The high theft rate isn't comfortable dealing with either.

Im basically preparing myself for a big part out. I have tons of little things in great condition that I can let go of to fund something new. The hatch section can't even be opened right now, so its a good amount of metal work to re-shape that or cut out and weld in a new rear section so im sure the insurance company isn't going to want to pay to actually fix this thing.

Yea your hatch was mint. If you can't fix it just part it and wait til you find something that is in as good a shape as the hatch. The money it would cost to get a beat hatch in the condition yours was stock when you got it is enough to make me wait or go through the trouble of fixing it.

I'd definitely take time to try to find a mint hatch if you end up parting it out. That or another coupe!

A new ek shell might not be the mintiest in comparison to this one, but it will give you the motivation to tear it all down and clean it up from the ground up perhaps? More time consuming but maybe more cost effective than parting out and rebuying?

Damn, that really sucks to hear about. Best of luck, I hope to see it back or you in another 96-00 soon!

Such a stinking bummer. What's the options with your K24? Something different like an Accord or 'lude, perhaps?

I don't like to just clean things, i like to replace things with new pieces. If i bought another old car, every bad part would be replaced, and it would definitely run my costs way up. So its not cost effective with my way of modding.

whatever i jump into will definitely make use of the k24 except one car. I may get into a acura TL but anything else will K swappable.
