Don't sell shit and work on the CRX and 510
cocksucker you are
I am going to be NO help on this one, but IF you decide to sell the CRX, hit me up first!!!!
Believe me, I can completely understand some of the things probably going thru your head right now....the Eclipse has taken a LOT to get where it is now, and we are STILL not done with the original list of intended mods....

how do u go and get drunk on a wednesday!!! like damn it's the middle of the week. fuck it's a lot of motherfuckers on IA, soon to be i need of a liver>
i swear every week someone makes a post like this or close to it. saying oh "my my life is going down the drain... man i just found out my girl is fucking Santa Clause... man i just found out that i was adopted and my mom & dad are midgets, work for a traveling circus" or some kinda fucked up crazy shit. but i have to admit i love reading about all this crazy shit lol.
but if ur as old as QD or close to it then get out the secene, cuz from wat ive heard that mofo is almost 50!!
Sits back and waits for all the neg reps from everyone.
CHRIS,
TOUGH QUESTIONS MAN, I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE BOTH CARS. THE THING YOU HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF IS "DO I WANT TO PUT MONEY IN THE CRX AN DRIVE IT AGAIN, AN DO I WANT TO PUT MONEY IN MY 510".
IF THE ANSWER IS "ONE DAY I WANT TO DO IT" THEN KEEP THEM. IF RIGHT NOW YOU SAY "I DONT HAVE THE MONEY FOR THESE CARS AN I COULD USE THE MONEY TO MAKE ME HAPPY NOW" THEN YOU KINDA ANSWER YOUR OWN QUESTION.
YOU ALSO NEED TO ASK IYOURSELF "IF I PUT MONEY IN THE CRX AN IT RUNS, WILL I BE HAPPY".
RIGHT NOW I THINK YOU SEE THE CRX AS A BURDEN, SOMETHING THAT HASNT RUN IN A LONG TIME, AND ITS DEPRESSING. I KNOW HOW YOU FEEL, IVE BEEN THERE.
THE 510 IS A MUCH BIGGER PROJECT THAN THE CRX THAT WILL TAKE ALOT OF TIME. DUE TO ITS RARITY, I WOULD KEEP IT, BECAUSE ONE DAY WE WILL ALL BE BALLIN AN BE ABLE TO FINISH IT. THE CRX YOU COULD DUPLICATE, IT WOULD BE HARD, BUT NOT AS HARD AS A 510 IMO.
THE CRX WOULD NEED SOME MONEY IN IT TO BE ABLE TO SELL IT FOR WHAT ITS WORTH.
I MEAN, ASK YOURSELF, SHOULD YOU SELL IT ALL, REALLY GET OUT OF THE SCENE, AN WOULD YOU BE HAPPY WITH JUST THE 4RUNNER, A SYSTEM, AND NAVIGATION. OR WOULD YOU ALWAYS LOOK BACK AN SAY "MAN I SHOULDNT HAVE DONE THAT".
IF YOU HAVE ANY DOUBT , DONT SELL THEM.
I FELT THE SAME WAY AFTER MY 2.0LSVTEC WAS DONE. I WAITED A YEAR TO BUILD IT, I FINALLY GOT IT DONE, AN IT JUST WASNT WHAT I WANTED ANYMORE. IT BROKE, IT WAS LOUD, IT WAS NOISY, IT WAS A PIECE OF SHIT CRX (BECAUSE OF HOW OLD IT WAS AND IT WAS COMPLETELY GUTTED) AND IT JUST DIDNT MAKE ME HAPPY. I WAS TIRED OF IT. I HAD MORE FUN WITH 180WHP AN FULL INTERIOR, THAN I EVER DID WITH 240WHP AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS MORE. I REMEMBER HOPPING IN MY BLACK CRX AN REVVINGTHE SHIT OUT OF IT, BEATING IT UP, AN NEVER BREAKING, SURE IT ONLY MADE 180WHP, BUT IT MADE ME SMILE EVERYTIME I DROVE IT. THE 2.0L LSVTEC JUST CAUSED ME PAIN AN FINANCIAL STRAIN.
SO I BUILT A 2JZ 240, MY LAST CAR. I WONT BUILD ANYMORE AFTER THIS, AN I BUILT WHAT I WANTED, A FULL INTERIOR, STREET CAR, THAT DOUBLES AS A REAL RACE CAR. I WILL MAYBE DRVIE THIS 240 ONCE A MONTH IF THAT, AN I CAN AFFORD TO DRIVE IT AT THE TRACK, HAVE FUN, AN PUT AROUND TIME IN MY $900 BEATER.
CALL ME CHRIS IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, IM HERE FOR YOU MAN, WE GO BACK LIKE 8 TRACK. IF YOU NEED A HAND GETTING THE CRX TO RUN, IL BE THERE SO WE CAN SPIN IT AROUND THE BLOCK IN BOOST
WHEN BALLER GETS BACK, WE WILL GO TO BREWHOUSE AN TALK ABOUT IT MORE

+1 for you sir
thanks i couldn't stop laughing after i actually read it when i was done writing it.
hulud im my bad i thought u were one of the many IA members in need of AA, just cant be sure now days.
Sounds like you have deeper issues (depression or anxiety) than just being burnt out on the car scene. I wouldn’t do anything till I figured out what truly is the obstacle be it work, social life, ect.
^^^man he just found out that he was adopted and his real mom & dad are midgets, work for a traveling circus
i would honestly say, keep the 510. those cars are becoming harder to find in good condition. i'd honestly like to buy one but depending on your potential price i'd get it from you. that way, if you give a shit, you could see it whenever. and know it wont be FUBAR.
there's one out here right off of rockbridge rd that is beige or something that's nice as hell appearance wise but i never see anyone driving it.
other ones i've seen look as though they were pulled out of a 5yr salt bath.
I'm going to disagree. Later, QD.
FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!
CRX's are gay. Sell it and drop a TT rotory in the 510.
what... and miss all this? ...
what do you want for the 510?
-IA MGMT is inappropriate.
This is why I normally don't put my personal life on IA.
I'll probably just delete this.

I don't know you personally but I can tell you like working on cars. So if you get rid of your cars, you'll eventully get bored and want a project to play around with. I went through this phase as well when I was hit by the drunk driver on my gsxr. Next thing I know I bought the r33 and was back at ground zero.
All I'm saying is give it alot of thought, don't do anything you'll regret bro
Current Toy: A few classics, maybe a few imports too. Whatever
I'm in the same boat as you are BTLFED. My wife, daughter and house payment have become more important than a new turbo or whatever. If I could just get the 240 out of my hair I'd be done with it. I'm not saying I don't like nice cars anymore but illegal street racing isn't for me and I don't really have access to any tracks close.
I haven't read the rest of this thread yet, this quote was as far as I got. Yes, it's a phase. Before you do anything make sure your doing it with a clear head. I thought I was out of the import thing couple years back. Couldn't do it. CRX's can be replaced, I know. 510's....... not so easy. I could say some cheesey shit like sell me the 510..blah blah blah. Keep that shit. This too shall pass my friend. I only met you once, but your cool as fuck. But dude, you have a bad vibe right now, and no bitch on earth is worth giving up what you love to spite her(hope I'm right on this, but I'm sure I am). Hit me up if you need anything.
How much would the CRX go for if you sold it? I'd keep both around as long as storing them was free unless I really needed a couple grand. I plan on keeping the subaru around for a while, even if it becomes a garage queen and I'm chilling in an Accord around town. I'm sure I'm way younger than you are, and probably right where you were when you were 22, I love this stuff but I know that someday it's going to have to sit on a backburner while I further my career or possibly create a family.
You've already admitted that you think its just a phase so my advice is to keep the cars until you've worked out your personal problems and if everything else in your life is going fine and you still want to get rid of them do it. Please post up pics of both projects, I remember seeing one pic of the CRX a long time ago.

Those are the sex....

I was thinking the same before I retired the EK in 03.. got rid of it.. got the EG and shit was sold before it left the body shop.....
We are getting older.. We want nice rides to hold our asses... haha you know, we are getting older...
Well, atleast now, Im all about making my Pockets fatter and saving for the future...
I still love cars.. but not dropping 30K into any car never again.
Good Luck
You ass if you sell anyone of those cars I'll slice your old ass! lol!

After thousands of dollars, you can transform your Honda to perform like a Nissan.

chris, even tho we've been back and fourth thru all our drama, you know i still have much respect for what you've built and would hate to see that let go. lol normally crx's you see are either fast as hell but rust buckets, OR they're just riced out.... yours to this day, is the cleanest one (while still being fast) i've ever seen. imho, if you sell it, you'll regret it. maybe not immediatly, but in a couple months, you'll be kicking yourself in the ass over it.
remember when I said I wouldn't sell my integra and did, but I would build the 510
Sell the CRX, 510, and 4 Runner.
All the exercise will be good for you
Im restoring my z right now, so lets restore your 510 in the process. It will be fun. We'll stip it out, repair any rust. Start stitch welding all the seams. I'll get you a sr20de for cheap, and we'll make it one bad ass SOB. I got cost on cages so we'll throw one in etc... 1800lbs @ 180hp will fly. Just like we were talking about last year, exept now you can get beer and I'll take a carbonated soda
