Why the part out

[Kevin@nextmod]

Alright, i decided to start this thread cause i have a lot of interest from people asking me why i'm parting out and what i'm getting next. As of right now i have nothing firm in mind but i do have a few cars i'm aiming at. I'm not going to list them because i don' want to list them now and then suddenly you see me driving this piece of shit to a meet.:)

One big reason to switching over is i'm going for a stick shift this time (yea its about time) the 3 have treated me fine except for the few problems that i got. It is my first car thats under my name so i'll make sure i'll keep lots of pics before i sell it. I'll keep sticking around as long as i have the car and i'll keep sticking around even if i get the new car (unlike some other people):chuckle

All the best to you, Kevin. I am confident that whatever car you choose will be a good one, and that it will bring you lots of joy. When/if the time comes, don't be a stranger when/if I see you on the roads.:)

No worries....i'll still remember you as the skinniest person in the world and wears a skirt in -50 degrees weather....hahahaha

[-RJ3-]

heheh sad to see you part your car... But happy to finally see you in the race mode.... MANUAL Rules!!!

[3GFX]

Its a shame to see your car go, you had a very nice JDM setup, anyone who gets your parts is lucky. I'm personally excited to see what you're jumping into next.Cheers.

[sicsol]

Dude. Its sad to see you go from TM3. Make sure to keep in touch & make it out for wings. The forum with miss you.

[Kevin@nextmod]

No worries. For sure i'll stick around and keep posting advice and BS. ahhaha.... TM3 is part of my family....

[dentinger]

so....any ideas on what you next car will be??

[stevenlung]

Si is super super cheap right now, leasing is only $370/month compared to $500+/month b4, it makes me wanna get one too

[Kevin@nextmod]

so....any ideas on what you next car will be??

I really have no idea... Si is one of my choices but probably not going for it.

[dentinger]

a newer one??

i wouldnt mind a civic.... mostly pics of all the JDM parts for it

[Kevin@nextmod]

Was going for a used one. They are so cheap now

[stevenlung]

i'm so f..ing pissed now, with the money i spent on mods, i could've bought a Si now

[dentinger]

ya.

i love to get a mid 90's civic again. but only a hatch.
there are so many options with engine swaps now. k20, b16, b18, etc etc.
plus these cars weight next to nothing....

[-RJ3-]

Or go truly JDM.... get a 91 import

[Kevin@nextmod]

I do'nt like the right hand drive. Or i'll pick up the EVO III

[dentinger]

now your talking!!

where are those sold??? in the states? or overseas??

i'd love to get my hands on a R33... just gotta wait a few more years...

[Kevin@nextmod]

They are already available. I've seen one up here in markham.

[dentinger]

oh sweet!!

i think i found my next ride lol
the R33's have the turbo'd RB26det right?

nvm. quick search...
the Gts-t have the RB25, factory turbo'd.

So get one and swap it to a rb26det....... ;)
Word I hear is that there are plenty of engine swaps available, but because not that many people have the actual cars here yet.. I mean lots doing, but it is a mere shadow compared to civics/tegs/Hondas in general that these mint engines go for next to nothing.

[ptfire]

Why don't you get a Mazdaspeed3?

[billyfo]

or back to basic, Fit Sport like me :D

[///M]

or back to basic, Fit Sport like me :D

It's actually a very nice car to drive. I rent one on a semi-regular basis.

Why get a Si when the MS3, it is far superior. No need to mess with it like most other cars out there. Just buy it, drive it. Guaranteed to be cheaper than buying something to mod and will be more reliable, e-test no problem, faster than a Si with with basic bolts ons, better resale, warranty, etc....................

I was talking about the price, if you could get a MS3 for $370/month on leasing with 0 down, good for you

[billyfo]

that's true, although for real it's not as fast as the 3, but handling is very similar if not better. now I am saving up for the E92.

I find the handling and steering to be excellent for a car of its class. Better than many much, much more expensive cars too.

Which E92 are you saving for?

[billyfo]

depends on how much I can save, 335i or the best -- M

unlike some people??? what is that supposed to mean?:whoa i'm still here, still kicking at meets i can attend...thank you alex for dragging me out to masiv lol

cant wait to see the new whip,...thats rights go stick, once you go stick you'll never want to go back, completely different feel for the car, and there are many new things that must be learned, but i'm sure it'll be a piece of cake to you. though its too bad one of the best looking mazda3's is coming off the road in parts.

[Kevin@nextmod]

^^ haha stas...thanks......
as for the manual part...i had tons of practice with a tsx before since i had got to drive it for a few weeks.

[billyfo]

Si would be good choice, but insurance will be another story. how about the new 09 Matrix XRS which using 2.4L engine though I don't know if it comes w/ manual or auto only.

[stas]

the insurance would be same as on mazda3 gt. they both fall into the same class.

so Pearly should i take it that you're considering a tsx? or can i convince you to get a typeS? :chuckle

[Kevin@nextmod]

neither

[stas]

neither

...lets see:
1. your mazda3 is nicely modded
2. you started with a speed conversion
3. you want a stick shift

ok, i got it, this is a recipe for getting a mazdaspeed3 or an 09 matrix


haha, jking:chuckle, i will keep my eyes and ears open for your next toy,
"may your next car be a masculin car" :chuckle(i dont mean a muscle car)

[Kevin@nextmod]
