Strange, you say you just got one and now you have one for sale... not very convincing you know what I mean...

I mean i guess a bicycle could work for close areas. But i am moveing to Pensacola and i am going to visit my mom in Tampa and my friend that lives in Houston and that is a 7 hour drive on weekends so the bicycle won't work for that. But i guess i will look for cheap DD to drive during the week and leave the evo for weekends. Thanks guys

Yea just to go from point A to B i think that is cheaper than any car i could get. I would have the evo still for the speed racer. And this would let me keep the evo for the weekends. But if not i am going to look for a good honda as a DD.

Hey guys any other input. I am thinking i could also sell the car take the money form that and buy a cheap dd and a cheap project car like a hatchback and just slowly rebuild it. Because i am sure honda are cheaper to make fast than the evo's are and not as costly to maintain. The evo is fast and fun with 316whp but i am use to it now so i want more and i can't afford to really do what i want with the evo it cost way to much. But i think i could on a old honda i want something for drag that looks like a beater but under the hood is all rebuilt from the ground up. How much about would it cost me to get a say 91-95 honda hatchback to be at around 300whp? thanks for any input guys

i bought an 02 ninja 500r in June for $3000.00 in really good shape... just look around the classifieds they are great bikes for a good price... it only had 2200 miles on it. go used and go bigger 250's suck. a 500 was barely good enough for the highway to where passing semi's wasnt so bad. a 250 wont hold up on the highway very well....

cheaper to make a honda as fast as an evo? in a word, no. to get a 92-95 (that's the years of that body style) civic to 300 whp is going to take some doing.. not to mention it won't hook up like an all wheel drive car will.

how about i'll give you 2 90 integras for your evo.. and don't worry they look like beaters.

yeah but how much could you get for your car realistically? a good 92-95 hatch with a gs-r swap around $4000.00-$4800.00. a 92-95 hatch b16 swap$3000.00-$3800.00. if your willing to pay for shipping take a look at dallas craigslist, they always have some good hatches for good prices... a 300whp hatch around $5200.00-$6000.00 with a pretty good set up. if you want to build and swap yourself it might be better to buy a hatch with the motor you already want. it may be more expensive starting from scratch... but it is always better since you know what is and isn't going into the car...

an evo will be way cheaper to make fast than a civic, or any honda for that.

awd turbo, with good factory power>fwd with wheel hop and what not.
