You know youre in a DA when...

When the only thing that kept your car safe while you were gone traveling was the ignition cut chip, clutch lock, and complete removal of any valuables.

Which reminds me,

When the only thing you care about after a long trip is whether or not your car is still at home at all.

Holy shit it’s Alex. Where the fuck have you been!?

when you have to roll your back windows down to roll your front windows up so it’ll seal right on the freeway(db1)

when you’re not even tucking, but you’re scraping on EVERYTHING

When you read through 29 pages to see if some one already posted what you want to post.

You know you drive a G2:

  1. When someone knocks on your front door to tell you that your brake lights are on.
  2. When you try to polish out the finger rubs on the AC control, and find out that they are there to stay.
  3. When your black carpet looks like you spilled coffee through the center console and it dripped down to the floor mats.
  4. When you hit the brakes and your interior lights up from the missing 3rd brake lite cover.
  5. When all 4 wheels have the same offset and one (rear) rubs.
  6. When people ask “is this the new model (?)”.
  7. When you modify tools to work on the car. I ground down a small chizzel to destake the axle nuts.
  8. When you know to take a 17, 14, 12, 10 MM sockets and wrenchs, phillips screwdriver and wire cutters to the salvage yard.
  9. When your new car sits out side while the G2 is in the garage.
  10. When you spend 11 years looking for an OEM optional body kit , finally find one, buy it and put it in the attic. And still kick yourself in the ass for not buying a new kit when the dealership offered it to you in 1992 for $300.00
  11. When the sight of an unmodified low milage LS gets you all worked up.
  12. When you can tell the year and model Integra just from seeing the back of the car, even with swapped tail lights.
  13. When you have ever seen a clean G2 parked and left a note saying “if you ever want to sell call ###-###-####”.

lol those were good^^

holy shit, i just started reading this thread today. just makes me laugh cause alot these things are happening/happened to me.

-…when you drive your car throughout the week, you start thinking of all the things that might be wrong with it, you start to hate it, and when the weekend comes, you fix it, and fall right back in love with your car.

-when you know the bore and stroke of your engine, the code name of the block,

-you know chassis codes.

-you stick your head out the window and scream when you see another da/db that looks like it came out the dealership.

-when you persuade your mom to get a db1 because she needs something thats reliable to take your nephew to school

-when you brag to your friends who have american cars that you can take a 20mph off-ramp at about 50+ mph

-when you test drive the 08 scion tc, and its not too impressive as your baby.

-when you let fellow g2 owners drive your car just to hear they’re feedback(and its always positive)

-when your lights dim because of the amp/sub combo you have, without a capacitor

-when you start taking auto classes because you love your car sooooo damn much

-you take it up the angeles crest hwy at night or on the weekends just because you love the curves

-when your best friend asks you right after you buy your DA “did you really want something that old?”
-When all those ricer kids pull up next to you and try to race you just because your DA looks fast
-When your beige interior is stained orange from the fatal mistake of buying a Big Gulp orange drink but forgetting you don’t have cup holders

werdddd^^ haha every1 i kno is just like its old im like u dont kno wat it means to me

When your car squeaks, rattles, bounces, n makes all kinds of crazy sounds?

BUMP for a hilarious thread.
Seems like everything has been said already.
Lets hear some new ones!!!

When your driving down the road and spot that old, rusted beat up Integra, and bow your head in dispair without even knowing it.

^^My wife pointed this one out. She said it looks like I’m praying everytime we pass up a DA that’s been beat^^

I do the same thing, I see an Integra that is ragged out and I bow my head in shame that someone ruin such a great car. I miss mine badly, I will have another when I can afford it.

When youre sitting at a light with a ricer next to you waiting to beat you out because his lane ends 10 ft. from the light, you leave hard… and it pops out of first.:bs:

When it rains you get soaked inside the car more than outside because of those million leaks in your car.

lmao!!!

-when you constantly monitor the temperature gauge cause the car seems to overheat every other month with a new coolant issue.

-when you constantly monitor the idle RPM because it always seems to get lower and lower.

-when everytime you are trying to get good gas mileage out of your teg, you end up having a heavy foot after 10 minutes just to “hear the exhaust”.

-when there are so many things wrong with the car, you have to prioritize which ones you are going to take care of first, and which ones you will completely neglect till they cause trouble.

when you have ripped seats:sipread:

just realized that’s been said 10,000 times…don’t care:bored:

when you pull up to a meet and people ( usually up and coming Honda owners) ask why you’re JDM front end looks different from their G3 front end?

when you roll up to some fast food place in your friends g3 and girls come up and talk to him about the car. Then you go some where with your DA and all you get is a group of guys. I don’t know if that’s been covered but if it has, it’s still happening.

when you’re in other people’s cars and the car squeaks and you can pinpoint where it’s coming from because your car squeaks in the same place.
