Just picked it up a little bit ago and took it for a spin to get use to everything...its my first manual trans. I'm getting use to it so before long I shouldn't have any worries. lol
Anywho where it is...

The Trunk...believe it or not, it's going to stay empty, at least as far as Audio equipment is concerned

I like it. I know alot of people hate imports but I bet you can get that thing running faster then most cars on this site. (with the right amount of money). Trick that bitch out and lets see some more pics!

You're keeping the GA, right?
Nice Honda either way. :thumbup2:

Ah...you broke your manual tranny cherry, just like me last June. Now after you learn the basics of shifting, try rev matching and heel/toe shifting. Any questions, just PM me.

oh Yeah, The GA isn't leaving my possession for as long as I live. lol It can't. I'd loose WAY too much money, plus I don't want to deal with another broken heart!
thanks for the comments guys,I plan on paying it off quick, so once that happens and I get use to that extra pedal I think I'll be looking into mods.

I like the color ;)
As long as you're keeping the GA, it's fine by me! Hopefully you won't have to fix anything under the hood of this car...doesn't look like much fun. :) Hope you enjoy it! I have also been thinking of getting a car with a manual trans, except it'd be an older car (Quad 4) that is probably not in the greatest shape, as it would be my second car.

Just thought I'd post it here, but took the car to work today, got off the phone, and went to pull out, went about 50 feet away from my original parking spot, went over a drain and hear a snapping sound like a fire cracker went off...then the next thing I know the front end feels all funny so I stop the car, open the door and hear a psssssssst coming from the front tire...yeah, flat as anything with a tear in the side wall big enough to put my pinky finger in!
I backed up to the shop, broke out the jack and spare tire in the trunk and got to work. in embarassment, came home on the spare going way too slow, had multiple cars on my a$$ and one passed me. lol
Tomorrow I'll be on the hunt for a new BFG tire to replace the one that popped. I've never had a flat tire(out of my driveway) before let alone a blow out. I tell ya, this car is giving me alot of experience. lol Well learning to drive a stick which I'm feeling alot more comfortable with, and taking care of th flat/blowout.
