Finally going to post my 3rd gen

Never had time to take good pictures. It's good that I didn't though, cause the wheels used to look like crap. Only "mods" I've done is a rear disc conversion, and a strut tower brace. Whenever I can find work though, first order of business is lowering it and a WarpSpeed y-pipe. Might go with Konis/Eibachs, since I want to try my hand at autox. (Shhh, it doesn't matter if it's auto.)




Deadly Volvo lurking in the garage...

Thanks. I have the belief that I have the best maintained third gen in Hialeah. All of the third gens I see are run down, missing paint, and have broken exhaust studs. And I cry when I see SE's driven by old people.

I'm a poor college student. Should have seen them BEFORE the paint. They were faded really bad and with no clearcoat. I'm actually quite happy with how they turned out.

I think it looks good. You made the best of what you had. I like the little lip you left on the rims, and I think the color works pretty good. God I miss my 3rd gens! I had two...darn Rust Belt

I feel your pain on the poor College student thing, 1 year left until I get my B.S. (Bachelor of Science) not what you all think it means. In Mechanical Eng.

Good job though... Clean car!

Thanks for the compliments. So far, I'm only a sophomore in college with an undecided major, but hopefully everything will turn out for the best. Sucks that the 3rd gens are gone though. I hope to have mine as long as possible. I hope I can work soon so I can really put all my ideas to life. The only thing I'd be screwed in is a 5 speed swap, the old man doesn't want to swap/ and doesn't want this car stick.

Well the only thing I have to worry about college is for books, other than that I'm covered. It's only some minor things I'd like to do to get it the way I want, then worry about performance. For instance, my seats could REALLY use a reupholster.

Well, I'm more than willing to balance it. I just haven't been able to get hired anywhere. Being just a student is easy, but no cash flow sucks HARD.

Well just enjoy yourself, and keep your head in the game. This way when you graduate, you can buy almost any car you want and mod it however you please. Good luck!

Very clean! I like the rims a lot actually, they are nice color and go with the white. Good luck with the mods and autocrossing.
