Re: Beater 2g Round 2
Going to get my ricer on this weekend...

Started off with a nice dirty hatch


Found a sweet spoon, box of fuses, a lighter and misc bolts under the spare tire well


Also found a crap ton of dynomat and this is where I gave up for the night. Hopefully a lot more progress is made tomorrow on it.



The car must have had a trailer hitch on it at some point as I found a trailer hitch harness back there too.

Plan is to let a little piece of the old black 2g live on with this new beater

Re: Beater 2g Round 2
haha I'm not that cool. Wonder what a spoon was doing in the trunk of a dsm though...

Holy crap, I hate dyno mat stuff! Also after getting under neath and really looking at the bottom of this car, I realized this car has too much rust for my liking I'll keep messing with it but won't really do much to the car that couldn't be transferred to another rust free shell.

Tin cans are fun!

I want another DSM! Maybe I'll get a 2G just because you can put Brembos on. But then again... Who wants those heavy big brakes of wheels to clear them!? Two parachutes duh.

Re: Beater 2g Round 2
Get a 2g! just don't forget to get a racing suit with those two parachutes

Tin cans aren't bad if they aren't your daily and is strictly a fun street/track car.

Re: Beater 2g Round 2
Some of you know. So I thought Id let everyone know. I picked this up from Brad last week and already put over a 1000 miles on it! No issues whatsover. I had one check engine light since I've owned it (random misfire). I will add, if your thinking about an auto their not really fun to drive. Also gas mileage not as great as the 5 speed. Anyways I bought this a a temp. fix and DD duties so the car won't be getting crazy modded but heres a few things I've done and what I plan on doing.


Also to the previous owner before Brad did you put lowering springs in? Rides pretty stiff
not a big deal just wondering though
