does that thing have 4x114 lug conversion??? those look like integra R wheels.... pre-5 lug version....or painted Hx's lol i cant really tell...

as for the swap...its been mentioned about the shifter...
and if it does have an h22....then it had some stuff done to it. i ran an h22 hatchback a while back at the track on slicks, CAI, and 2 1/2 inch exahust and i only got it to run 13.4 at 92 mph....but then again its arizona and im not a very good driver

id bid on it...mainly cuz im looking for a hatchie

Out of your mind man! it's got a salvage title & even if it didn't, i wouldn't pay 3k for a vehicle that i haven't even driven let alone it's not worth that at all!

I finally got the email from the salvage yard about the car:

Your bid: $1,379
Winning Bid: $1,382

How ****ing gay is that? It was a silent auction but someone still outbid me by $3. 3 ****ing dollars! The funny thing is that I was trying to raise my bid within the last 10 minutes and the website got so overloaded that it shut down. I tried calling on the phone to put in the bid but all lines were busy. When I finally got thru it was after hours and I got the typical after hours recording. So ****ing pissed! I just want to know what was in it now...
I did manage to snag a 2000 Honda CRV for $375 with super rollover damage but nice interior and engine (main reason I bid on it).
