You have no idea....lol....I bought the car from my borther for dirt cheap but he took out all of his nice stuff and put all the stock things back in....Those are what he found in his attic that went to it when he had it.

GilroyWasHere

Thanks bonzelite....

::looks at his post::

I got a GXE? lol....Thought it was an SE, well, thats what the guy at the audio place said.

::Smacks the audio guy::

a 92 SE would have the 190hp VE30DE. and youz just gotz the VG. i have a 90SE and she's got the VG, too. welcome.

GilroyWasHere

Well, thanks for the info....i guess i learn something everyday.... ^.^

Car looks good. My first 92 SE was that color and it is one of my favorites. You should keep it that color.

Once you start to fix/mod your car, you can't stop. It's like some kind of sickness (Modificationitis?) I think most of us have it

Soon you will know very well the difference between a VG and a VE.

bonzelite

iTrader: (2)

yes. and the learning will continue. just remember that in 92 they introduced the VE for the SE model; the GXE retained the VG. that year as well saw the introduction of different trim for the grille and rear light/trunk reflector thing. the more you navigate this org, the more you will see the differences. soon, the differences will so obvious that you will not think about it.

Well the pathedict thing is that i joined this org a year ago. I only joined the Forum recently. And when i first joined the org, i didn't have the family problems that i did when i wasn't on much.

bonzelite

iTrader: (2)

it is all good, no matter what has been going on. i have over 900 posts and a couple of years on here and, at times, feel that i am barely a notch above an idiot. the more i learn on here, the less i realize i know. and that is part of the fun.

i don't understand the meaning of the snowman smiley, but i will use it here:

Got some Glowing Pedals last night for a gift from my mom's boyfriend last night. I'll put some picks up when i'm finished installing them.

johnnyo319

Welcome Gilroy and enjoy you max.. But be aware that anything ricey such as glowing pedals and led windshield washer nozzles will get you flamed...

GilroyWasHere

Please Explain....can you give me a little more info on that?

internetautomar

iTrader: (30)

Basically if it doesn't have some useful purpose. I.E. Performance or handling.
you're treading close to rice land

GilroyWasHere

Gotcha...I'll keep that in mind.

89maxSE

yeah, the glowing is so uneccesary

GilroyWasHere

Alright....I Get the point. Its not like i went out and bought them. I got them as a gift.

89maxSE

thats totally cool man....we aren't trying to bash on you or anything. If you like 'em, you like 'em. Sorry if you took it the wrong way.

gilroy, as a rule of thumb, stay away from any extraneous car bodily adornments that you would see young gangbangers using on hondas. like stickers, too many badges, altezza style aftermarket stuff, orange vinyl seats, huge wings, just anything gay and tacky. the term to sum it up has become "rice." and that is open season for flaming.

johnnyo319

Hahaaa!!! Its funny how you associated young gangbangers with hondas..

oh and congrats bonzelite, you reached the 1000 post mark..

bonzelite

iTrader: (2)

johnnyo319, thanks for the props. i know 1000 is a small number compared to some of these other guys on here. DA-MAX has over 10,000. but 1000 is a first org milestone for me personally. thanks, dude.

oh yes. look at any modified honda tomorrow or whenever: nine times out of ten, it looks like a lowered ice cream truck with a wing. then look at the driver. it seems that all of these hondas are driven by the same guy, and the other same guy is riding shotgun. and he probably has a .38 under the seat with an axe handle.

GilroyWasHere

As i pulled out of my school parking lot, i really noticed what you meant by all that stuff. It was like every other Honda had the same crap on it.

bonzelite

iTrader: (2)

right. there are exceptions to the honda thing, but not many. most honda people either cannot afford to do it right, or they lack the acumen mentally to understand taste from tasteless.

also, some CAN afford to do it "right," but they spend the money on tasteless things. so they parade around how loaded they are, revealing, too, that they are clueless.

GilroyWasHere

Alright...I designed a rough draft of what the interior of my car would look like. I want to have a few Neon lights in there. Could someone answer these questions so that i dont end up looking like the young gangbangers with hondas.

-How many should I get?
-Whats the min. number i should get?
-Where should i put them?

If you could give me a straight answer, it would be helpful.

bonzelite

iTrader: (2)

well. i don't like that idea because i would not do it. but you are you. and that is what you want.

the biggest problem with that is glare. and legality. i think a cop would pull you over in a new york minute with what you envision. unless this is for showing in a parking lot, ie, the car is parked with doors open, i would scrap the idea. you're not seriously considering driving with neon lights on are you?

try installing I.C.E. stuff instead, as you are in that realm of thinking: install 4 or 5 flat-screen tv's with PS2 on them. i still don't like that skool, as it is getting dub chromie gangsta, but i find it more tolerable.

bear in mind that you are really tilling the soil for a flaming. not by me, as i have made my peace with that issue, mostly, but others are not so nice.

umm..on that mod list..u can delete the Unorthodox flywheel .. auto trannies dont use flywheels...they have a torque converter. (unless u planning to convert from auto to manual)

good luck with the modding

MrGone

iTrader: (30)

Well I guess technically the Torque Converter is like the clutch/pressure plate.
The Flywheel on an auto is the Flex Plate


Yes, I am bored, giving you crap, and should get to sleep
