    New Car!!!

    well today at lunch time, i went and got my car...

    1987 DX hatch, 5 speed, all stock.. silver outside, browny/maroonish interior... 5 speed... 268***km's, very little rust...

    tommorow ill get tons of pics... my auto room is right beside the media arts room.. can we say video's and 5.1 MP pics??

    anyway, ill be throwing all my goodies on it and painting it flat black...

    the 4G63 Excel is canceled until the summer when ill have enuff money to do a 300 HP 4G63t...

    1 quick question... do sedan and hatch seats swap? i got a parts car with a mint set of front seats that i could score for free... my new hatch has a big rip in the seat

    From experience it is easier to switch the entire rail setup to get it to work properly. And be careful not to get them spun around or they won't engage and disengage in the track properly.

    For the brakes use some 120 grit on the rotors, I did that when my malibu sat for over a year outside and the rotors were fine afterwards.

    the sedan seats will fit, but they wont flip foward as far as the hatch/coupe seats do.
