there is a rip or 2 on the drivers seat.

I'm not gonna drive it like that, that's why it's at the shop.

I already have the trunklid and tails from my other VE

I do want an A/T, but the deal was too good to pass up.

blackandwhite - Make me an offer on the armrest

maxitech- parts car is gone, but all the interior (except carpet) is in my garage

swowlinc- those are destroyed taillights back there

maximapitko- yup, the seller asked me not to divuldge the price. it is less than I paid for my last max though

Blackandwhite - plus shipping. you want the whole console or just the armrest?

Harvs94max - it's not too bad. I just need to pull the rear back out, and do the rear brakes. I still have my SE grill , and the fogs are aftermarket, probably coming off.

Vanskaterfreak- your trans is bad, otherwise I'd give it a thought

Don't know when I'll do the body yet.
lots of holidays this month.

yeah our roads need a soft suspension and lots of rubber.
Kinda like my wagon , big cushy , lots of sidewall.

When I destroy this clutch, then I'll need a hand

I'm gonna sell them, something about them just strikes me as wrong.
it cost me less than my last one, and is roughly the same mechanically. except for the rear brakes. but this has a good exhaust hmy:

Not bad. Looks abused, but better than a VG. Mileage over 200k?

If you remember, about 2 months ago when I got my VE, I also never drove stick before. To be honest, learning to drive manual was not the best time in my life, but luckily, the clutch held up till I got use to it, and everything turned out okay. Took about 12 hours all together broken up in 3 separate days. You'll be fine. Hope your tranny code ends with a V

Tip#1 - Try to feel the friction point when the clutch starts to grab as you slowly let go.

Tip#2 - Only use the clutch to switch gears, nothing else.

it shows 237k on the odo, but runs every bit as well as my 133k did , maybe better.
I do have a 133k cluster for it though

I'll really start learning the stick once I fix the rear brakes.
I do have topull out the rear end soon though.

I have as of yet to see a VE without a "V" trans code.

I was learning the friction point when I took those pics, I should have it down to usable about 30 minutes after I really start with it.

it's all about timing and knowing people.

I bought a 96 integra for $250
sold the aftermarket seats for $225
reinstalled some civic seats that came with the car
sold the aftermarket wheels for $250
reinstalled the wheels that were originally on the car
sold 2 remotes that came with the car (no stereo) for $10 ea
Sold the rest of the car for $600

never even transfered it into my name either.

lol I give you props for knowing how to deal with that stuff. Seems easy enough but the thing is finding the cars for those prices yet at a good shape such as you do or with a minor body issue that can be fixed easily.
