Got rid of my DA today.

So i put my car up sale or trade a while back. I wasnt really planning on getting rid of her, but i just wanted to see what offers i would get. Some younger kid has been texting me the last week to see if i still wanted to part with it. I really didnt want to, i told him my situation that i didnt want to get really get rid of it anymore, i was just seeing what i could get. He still bugged me about. So i told him i would sell it, sure. Not thinking that he would fall throu. Well he took the 2 hour drive with one of his friends today and gave me what i was asking for it. Im really sad i did get rid of her. But i really need to get something thats more practical. I live in a woodsy town with lots of snow and rain. The car wasnt practical. I loved her to death, and ive had it since highschool. But i guess you have to do what you have to do. When i get more money coming in im sure ill buy an EK hatch or another DA. Well Here are the pictures.


This is about a week after i got her, i put my rims on it from my old EG Hatch

This is freshly lowerd on skunk2 coils, friend put a big dent in my fender from then on it was only me working on the car.

This was my brother and my car doing a cheap photoshoot. (Really wish he would of never got out of the import thing)

Heres a picture of it i think just after i did the B20Z2 swap. Probably winter of 07 (highly recomend B20)

This is the end of summer 08, just after i moved back from Federal way WA, I purchase the one peices from a local member up near canada.


These are the pictures i used for the add on here and craigslist. Basicly the last ones i have of her.

Ive owned the car since late 2006, i got it my junior year in highschool. The car was reliable till about my freshman year in college. The rotor screw fell out on hwy 99 in albany. Thats one of the 4 times it did that. It then needed a clutch, §§§§§, alternator, axels, the following year. All this was within a few months i kinda started to dislike the car, but i kept it. After i fixed all that it been pretty good to me since. I do miss the car, but i was in need of a windshield, and paint soon. Anyways i will still lurk these forums, cause the people here are like family, even though ive only met about a handful in person. Thanks for everyone helping me out, even the people that snubed there noses to me and said search. Im sorry i added another thread about getting rid of my car, but i figured i would tell everyone! And no the dates on the last pictures arnt correct.

Love the oem lip. Thats looks like a nice ride height as well. Ive never seen a tan interior with black carpet that looks kinda cool. What kind of vehicles are you looking at?

Lol, you know i havent decided. I kinda want a toyota T-100, but then again im not a toyota fan at all. I want a full size dodge but i dont want to pay fuel prices. I wouldnt mind finding a 1992-1998 dodge diesel. But there a little out of my limit right now.

Yea i loved the carpet combo. I was going to do the door fabric black and get ls special seats, or leather seats. O well thou. BTW it was just a replica front lip.

:bye:

Stop playing around on the computer and get another DA!!! lol. You made a beauty there!

dam!!! well we all know that you will be back in a da you cant fight the bug off for ever

did you give them the b16 head?

I understand how you’re feeling completely man. I just got rid of my DA on Thursday night and felt exactly the same way. I had a black DA and was in the middle of getting it into shape.

I too had mine since 2006. It just felt like every time I made progress, something else would go wrong. I was really against the idea of letting her go, but I needed something reliable. Let me tell you, shifting gears in a new car is awesome. Pairing your phone to bluetooth and seeing 14 miles on the odometer is awesome. You can always pick up a project DA later for cheap. Put a down payment on something nice with the cash and you wont regret it after a few days.

That’s my experience, anyway.

Haha yea i gave them everything. The car was pretty full of extra parts.
