i used to goto meets every week, but then it died out, my new hangout will be the track soon…
…when your steering wheel also serves as a personal vibrator (Oh…did I say that out loud?),
…when you’re constantly praying that you NEVER EVER really have to change the rear motor mount,
and…when your timing belt breaks @ 87mph, and all it needs is a new belt, and she runs better afta,
…when you accidentally pump diesel into your baby, and after flushing, she just burps and says, “Nice try”,
And last, but not least…when you’re driving a 15 year old car, which your friends still think is cool, and you KNOW it’s cool, cuz you’ve never had to work on your tranny, your pistons/heads, your rear end, your starter, OR your alternator.
…(but silently, you remember how you DO NEED this little light cover here, this little plastic part there, colder A/C, new susp. bushings, alignment…Awesome:rofl:
Oh…and when you’ve considered giving your old girl to one of your kids to drive at 16, but then find yourself becoming increasingly critical of their improper behaviors just so you can rationalize not giving her up. Especially since collision insurance is almost impossible to get for older cars…GUYS, AM I RIGHT, OR WHAT?..Right. She ain’t gettin’ it.haha
You know you’re in a DA
You know you’re in a DA when every other year you’re replacing those god damn shifter bushings!! Sweet Jesus…
ive been driving for almost year and a half now with a sloppy shifter…
you know your in a DA when ^^^^its probably your shifter bearing, not your bushings^^^^
when i open the hatch to dig threw my shit and then get crushed by the hatch, cause the struts are going out…
then it turned into this.
when i have to open the hatch and prop it up with my head so i can get the vise-grips that i leave there just for this reason…
then this.
throw it in the back seat…cause who sits back there anyways
you know your in my DA when:
you ride as a passenger so much you know that when im rolling up the passenger side window to help push it up so we dont sit and wait for it on its own!

Lots of good stuff on this thread and for the haters stop driving DA’s then if you cant have a little laugh on the DA forum about the downsides of our cars! This thread is funny as hell literally laughing out loud…
Also you know your a DA owner (and Broke!) if you spend months on the internet looking for 1 peices cheaper than 150!
When u go through the trouble of getting bolts off, and pb doesnt work, so u just buy new bolts and cut the old ones with an acetyline torch.
the gas half tank mark means fill up soon!!!

-When people call your DB1 a DA (Db owners know this one).
-When you go to a grand opening of a shop and your rolling 7 G2’s deep
-You go to a G2IC meeting to see 15 DA’s and 1 DB1
-When stock working antenna’s are rare
-When you see a DA on the road that appears stock to everyone else but your able to point out any little change they have made to it.
-You drive with your stereo off more then you do on because your listening to a weird noise trying to figure out what it is.
-When you tell yourself your going to leave the G2 scene, Start looking at other cars and within afew hours your looking at other G2’s for sale online.
-When your bored, you browse craigslist, Ebay and Autotrader just to see what’s out there for sale (As G2’s go).
“-You drive with your stereo off more then you do on because your listening to a weird noise trying to figure out what it is.”
hahaha i do this from time to time
you know you’re in a DA (oh fuck it, or a DB2)
When your friend with a DC2 GS-R says you have better handling and you have the same suspension work.
That guy with the civic STILL revs you.
When you roll up to a meet and get embarrassed because you don’t have 1 pieces yet.
When girls think you just bought a new car.
When the mechanic says you can just get the parts from the pick and pull and do it yourself…
…and when you do it and it actually works.
“you drive with your stereo off more then you do on because you’re listening to a weird noise trying to figure out what it is.”

You know your in a G2 when you have 1 good looking JDM 1 piece headlight
You know your popular on G2IC when you meet someone on the boards and tell them your board name and they say “OH YOUR THE POST WHORE!!”
You know youv been to too many car events when your G2 get’s sent off to the shop and your phone starts ringing off the hook by people asking you if your car was stolen because its sitting alone in a bad neighborhood infront of a mechanic shop.
When people ask you how many miles your DA/DB has and you SMUGLY reply 200,000k+ and they’re like :shock: so you then proceed to rant about HONDA’s reliability.
“-When you tell yourself your going to leave the G2 scene, Start looking at other cars and within afew hours your looking at other G2’s for sale online.
-When your bored, you browse craigslist, Ebay and Autotrader just to see what’s out there for sale (As G2’s go).”
-DarkDB1
Amen.
you know your in a DA when you have shit on your dashboard and by the end of the ride it’s all over your car and you end up looking under the seats and the rear floor for it.
You know your in a G2 when you noticed, All stock height car’s are having trouble getting out of steep driveways but you became so trained by all the pot holes and speed bumps you go over the driveway with ease.
Haha, I love the one about leaving the G2 scene. Its soo true. And the 200k mile thing, I get that alot and Im telling ppl I got 136k miles, and there like Holy Shyt thats high.

You know you’re in a DA…
when you blame your car not starting on the hot weather.
When you are fucking blinded by the windshield wipers in sunny weather.
Whenever you go to Hondatech someone seems to be claiming OG status because they have a G2 integra.
HAHAHAHA - niiiice. "When your friends sit in your car waiting for the seatbelt to be lowered automatically, and you tell them to open the door. " tbeesh
my note to this…
When people get out of your car they unbuckle the shoulder belt before opening the door.
