    I would go JBP all day. but the stupid 04's .. no 05's... I would have to do the hub conversion, the interior , and blah blah... and CGM doesnt give off the LOOK I RACE!

    I honestly want another one already. the cost to make it a very well modded car is soo cheap. RWD + mods cheap + MPG = ftmfw

    my civic being stolen 2 years ago should have been considered a blessing@

    But im getting another sti in august. If I go to crazy on this car I will need to a third one!

    I get so jealous everytime I see this thread...lolol



    My Aunt and Uncle have a 1985 sr5 coupe. They bought it pretty much new (2nd owner). Factory everything, Maroon paint ( Not a thing wrong with it), Interior is a 9/10, and I can't remember to the exact, but it had right under 90k orginal miles.

    I've been trying to get my hands on it for almost a year now.

    Make sure you get some sort of heat protection [heat shield, header wrap, etc.] around the header or the distributor cap. The heat will melt that thing away.
