    Smufguy's 88 Dx

    This is the first time I am actually posting up pictures and listing my almost complete mod list of my 3g. Its been a worthwhile journey with my car (aka herby2) which I had to let go to make room for herby3 (08 Lx-P). Enjoy guys, this is the last time the car is gonna look like this cause in the next couple of months, its going on 4 jackstands and will be parted out to the few who want to put them to good use.

    PS: A part out thread will be made with prices by the end of this week so keep your eyes peeled.

    Storing the car is an issue and with the 'ever-rising' New Jersey Insurance, I will get murdered when it comes to insurance payments. So it has to do, even my dad cant use it cause he is scared of driving a 5-spd.

    I would not mind selling it as a whole, but its always the problem of people paying the amount that one wants. So parting out is the best way for now.
