My em1

[whitedc4]

So I've had this em1 forever but never posted about it lol

It's an ebp 2000 si with 137k on Te clock original motor and tranny and I've done a little work here and there.

Motor burns oil like I do cigarettes so its about time for a tear down and re build. However with event events I'm pretty sure justly throwing a k swap in would cost very closely the same amount.

List of mods: short and sweet
Apexii ws2 cat back exhaust
Dc sports header
Aem v2 cai
Ctr valve cover
Skunk2 drop springs
Billet cam seal
Work rsz r wheels
Beaks lower tie bar
Blox Lca <--- yuck
Custom interior. Black recaro fabric with blue stitching.
Front oem lip
Rear oem lip not installed or painted yet
Sunroof visor
And raybrig fogs


Not a whole lot of pics but this has been in my possession for almost a year. It's basically a car I drive once a month lol not a daily driver more of a trophy car because we wanted it.

And those r the only pictures I have on my phone of this car.

veryyyy nice.
k series cost the same as rebuilding a b16? whaaat

 

[TokyoSkies]

Bootiful, OP!

veryyyy nice.

Yeah.. not even close lol. $500 as opposed to $5k?

 

[whitedc4]

Lol if I rebuilt the b16 I wouldn't be using oem parts I'd be using aftermarket.

And to be honest I get such a good discount thru k tuned and hybrid that it doesn't cost me much at all. Like cut your price in half you posted there

 

[whitedc4]

Oh btw thanks for the compliments

LOVE LOVE LOOOOOOOVE me some EM1!!

And for those who don't think a K can be had for cheap, think again. Just gotta keep an eye out. Paid $950 total for the K20z3 long block and 6 speed trans sitting in my garage right now. And another $1000 to have it shipped from San Antonio TX to central Alaska.... ANNNND, I even tried to sell it right here on the boards for $850 before deciding nobody wanted it and paid to have it shipped to me..


Anyway, Pics are sick man! What's the specs on that white car with pink bay? I wanna do that SO BAD to my EE2 wagon!

 

[whitedc4]

That's my integra I've done a lot of body work to with full uk conversion. K swap its almost ready to drop in.

Spent about 6700 in body work and paint on that car and I swear to god if I don't finish it soon I'm going to set it on fire lol

That's called parent's house, parental help, or roommates.

SI looks good.

 

[AlaskaB16]

^^ Believe it or not, some people with high paying jobs don't blow their hard earned dollars on high end luxury cars. Going out on a limb here and saying that house is probably not parent owned. Rented perhaps, but I say this because if parents were involved do you think you'd see 4 Honda 2 doors? 3 of which taking up all the garage space?



... Or it's his parents house, with parent money, with roomates... and parents. LOL...


ANywayzzz

 

[whitedc4]

Actually it's my house. And no I don't live with my parents.

 

[whitedc4]

I paid 200k for the house and I have another s2000 my husbands that runs 8.52 worlds fastest street legal... Not my mommy or daddy's money and not even remotely rented.

It's called work hard and spend money on what you like.


Which I like expensive cars buy my next purchase won't be anything like that I have two kids so probably a 4 door of some sort.

I'll clear $130k this year and my most expensive car is a used mini van for the wifey

Myself having a high paying job, I don't blow my money on cars obviously b/c I have a civic. Instead my 1 bedroom townhome is $1020 a month, no utils included.

I have plenty of friends that parents own the home and they have multiple toy cars, or parents own the home, a bunch of kids rent it from the parents, or a bunch of friends got a super nice house and split the rent. It's very common.

 

[whitedc4]

I live in Oklahoma we don't really have town houses lol

I don't know if I understand the definition of townhouse. When I was in Florida I understood a townhouse was like a duplex or something but it had a pool and what not but almost like a condo.. Idk i don't get it.

 

[AlaskaB16]

Damn it.. You quoted my post before I changed it! LOL

I understand your point Puma, and yes, it's common. I was just suggesting that it very well could be more than that.

OP, post up some pics on the teg. I want a pink bay SO BAD it's killing me! My poor EE2 has been sitting in the dirt for ever it seems like. I have better cars to do builds to (Hatch's, Prelude's), but I just love the wagon so much.

It's a forum, I was asking for proof. Reading articles now.

Everywhere has townhomes; they're not excluded from certain states. A duplex and townhome are not the same.
