    Adios to Honda accord welcome to my 02 WRX

    Whats up ppl.... well my Accord recently was pretty much ready to pass away any moment and then to add to that I ran my Accord with close to no oil and I fukd the engine all up... my accord had 2 engine leaks at the moment but i thought it only had 1 which was comin out through the top part of the engine. So I fixed it and i check the oil for the next 3 days and it was good, so I stoped checking it thinkin my car no longer had a leak. But then after a few days my car stalled at a stop light and pretty much after that my car's condition kept gettin worse no matter how much more oil i added to it. then the engine starter blew and plus my car had many more other problems and so I decided to buy a newer car. I never focused on just getting a WRX, cuz Iwas up for anything that was a bit sporty, but that was the deal that came up and i could resist on trying to get it.
    RIP 89 LX


    Sold to the Junkyard

    TRansfered my rims to my sisters car

    Re: Adios to Honda accord welcome to my 02 WRX

    So i got a 2002 Subaru WRX with Greedy pro-fec B Spec II Turbo Booster pushing 17 psi, AEM CAI, Tein lowered suspension, Drilled and slotted disc brakes, fog lamps, tinted windows, ACT racing clutch with a new flywheel and a noisy ass straight pipe exhaust with a electrical flap that closes the straight pipe and uses the stock exhaust which is silent.

    I have plans to upgrade my sound but for now it only has 4- three-way pioneer speakers and cd/mp3/radio and my Ipod.

    why'd you sell that to the jy?!?!?! that body was perfect condition!!! i do like that exhaust setup though, thats a pretty neat idea with the little flap for switching between stock exhuast and straight pipe

    congrats on the buy. maybe you should have tried to sell that gorgeous boddy first...but ya you did ok
    ive seen those exhaust routers before..do you feel more power from your turbo with all that backpreasure gone? does it spool faster?

    Nice upgrade. The WRX is a really well rounded car. That was a pretty clean 3g tho, a little dissappointing.

    Re: Adios to Honda accord welcome to my 02 WRX

    I didnt think some one would want to pay 1.5 grand for a shell!!! aw shitt!!! oh well Ive been so busy lately I didnt think some1 would want to buy it, cuz the engine was makin so much noise it sounded like a bunch of cans clinging against each other.

    It made me sad to see my 3gen go away like that I drove it for 4 years and spent some decent money on it too but it had to go it was takin up to much parking space we currently had 5 cars and I kept gettin bitched at by my lot manager to move my accord out of the street cuz i had no space with all the other cars in the parking area, so that also add to my aprubt decision. I hated to see it go like that as much as you do.

    About the WRX I can definetly feel the car accelerate faster with the straight pipe open

    how much that run you? bet you could hav stacked the money into the 3g and had better result. u could have probably had some serious power and cool and still had lots of change left over. anyone can BUY a fast car. ud get more cred for BUILDING something quick. but oh well at least it wasnt a toyota

    i seriously would have driven down and towed the car home. i've been looking for a good body, and i couldn't care less about the trimline.
