horses are definitely more expensive. I work with a nurse who does English riding and it's expensive for her salary. Just sit back and sort yourself out before making a next move. From the outside looking in, it seems like you make a move and then you think about what you just did, and end up wondering, "what now?"
My EJ8; my slow build.
- Thread starter crash!
- Start date
an idea....look for a better paying job, or just dont progress so quickly. you can move out and afford to build a car if you want to, there are thousands and thousands of people that do it everyday.
also you can be reliable and turbo at the same time, you bought a daily for a reason, you dont need the civic to run all day everyday, thats the whole point of a project, not to build a reliable daily but instead a fun toy. or else you might as well sell the DA and save the money

Basically.
My job is awesome. If all goes well with Tesla, I'll retire from here.
That's true... I just don't want to build another motor. For a while. I want my bike. I want my nice house. I eventually want a Model S or some kind of nicer daily (Tesla employee purchase program is just around the corner
). Just trying to figure stuffs out.As I get older, I get tired of dealing with my car. I can relate to your sentiment. That's when you have to step back, and really consider what it is you're after: do you want something that you will be wrenching on all the time (let's face it: this is a project car. You're going to be tuning it/wrenching/prepping/replacing constantly. That's the nature of this kind of thing), or do you want something that is there, right away, on the weekends? Do you want the convenience of a car, or do you want the sporty adrenaline rush (and potential death-risk every time you leave your driveway) with a bike?
You can potentially die at anytime. Lol my car has pissed me off for over 5 years that I have had it. It has undergone a huge transformation into the new pile of junk it is currently. However, I knew that this is what I wanted to do with car since I got it (sort of anyways) I only spend money on it when I have it. I have no finaciak burden keeping it. I plan on maybe selling my car when I'm in desperate need of spare money or after I have I have built it into what I want it to be. I want the feeling of knowing I successfully finished something that I have put so much time and effort into. Now I think what you need to do is really think about what you want. You are young have no real commitments and now because you are thinking about all these things you want you do not have the same mindset you did I suppose when you started on this car. For the car scene screw it. Do your thing just make up your mind.
I was offered an r6 for my civic, but I don't like bikes really. maybe try to trade your car
I thought u sold this weeks ago?
Dying in a car vs dying on a crotch rocket. Hm. I wonder which would put you at a higher risk?
Dude, I'm almost 30. I don't want to tinker with Hondas very much anymore. Occasionally, I get the itch, but I would really prefer a more modern, AWD turbo car if I were going to tune. At this point, I just want a nice luxury vehicle that can get up and go, hence the BMW. With that, I'll be content, until I have expendable income to get a Subaru or something.
I've invested like $3k into this Civic, and the thing just constantly needs more cash. I'm way beyond over it. Doing what is necessary at this point to get it safe and clean, and it's gone. If I could get rid of it this second for a decent profit, it would be gone now. I'm sick of it. Maybe it's due to the fact that I'm finally realizing I need to make some significant life changes, and my car kind of reflects where I'm at in my life, I don't know.. Either way, I'm solid in my sentiments.
Same here. No care ever for a crotch rocket. Maybe when I was like 19.
I still want my R6. Super bad. I'm sure I'll own it for a while, then sell it.
And same Tokyo, I want to get like an e36 m3 SO BAD. I would do bags and wheels if I could afford it too (probably the bags on a 3 series. I don't want to ruin the highly engineered suspension of an M3)
