Woohoo! A site dedicated to 3Geez! Can't say I expected to find one but this place is great. I registered 'cuz I'm shopping for a car (my first) and 2 3geez popped up in my price range. They're both EXi, one 87, one 89. The 87 is asking $2200 (235 k) and the 89 is asking $2500 (290 k). I'm not a mechanic and I've got 0 experience working on cars, but ironically enough, that's exactly what is my passion, tuning cars, silly ain't it. 3rd gen Accords are lookin' good right now (the ones that aren't falling apart) and I'm thinking that having one would make a nice commuter/project car. How are they to work on? I know there isn't much aftermarket support but is it much trouble working on them? The A20A3 doesn't look too complicated, although I'm a bit wary of the A20A1 because it's carbed and I know less about carb tuning imports than I do EFI tuned cars, since I never see anything about them. Of course that doesn't mean I'd rule one out. I don't even know which engines are in the cars and I don't really care as long as they're reliable, which I've heard they are. Is that true? I've heard an A20 can even survive a busted timing belt! Anyways, I'm just looking for any thoughts of comments regarding how good a move it would be to pick one of these up as a first car for me to work on a lil' bit (don't worry, you won't have to deal with another :rice: I've got good taste :rolleyes: )
Nice to meet ya
