    Bought an '06 Civic Si

    Well, I have a deposit on one, it won't be here for 2 weeks. There isn't one on a lot anywhere! I'm keeping the MKIII, I traded in my Celica. I'm just anxious to get it, never had to wait after buying a car, but wanted to share my excitement!! Feels weird going to the "dark side" but since I...

    gutted the cats and now have smoke.

    Question, probably stupid, but...you said Cats plural? I thought there was just 1? I want to make my car "catless" now that I can do it legally. I would like to get a test pipe, but what is involved in "gutting the cats", what do I need to do. I'm N/A and want any shred of hp I can find.

    Read!

    I vote for tired N/A too. Mine is 87 N/A 5 speed. I only have FIPK, 3" custom exhaust, Ractive muffler. I took out my spare, I have manual seats, but I have a pretty heavy sub box...I think I'm fairly quick as long as I hook up good. The 4.30's can get you squirrlely sometimes. I killed a 04...

    Mk5 Supra In Road & Track Magazine

    Toyota killed the Supra name AND now the Celica name and the MR. But with the bigger awareness of the Supra name, it will be interesting to see which way it'll go. Anyhoo, it's outta my price range. :(

    Lighter supra seats???

    WOO-HOO! My 87 has manual seats, except for the side bolsters which the switch is on the console. I thought these were the most common seats. I guess not. I'm just happy that they're lighter! p.s., interior is burgundy

    Question about moldings

    The problem sometimes is like mine, where the metal warps, breaks the clips, and in quite a few places the metal is gone. Mine were really warped. The body underneath was fine, but it wouldn't have been for long the way things were going. I had to replace mine. Could be this fine Pennsylvania...

    Question about moldings

    you can still buy the moldings brand new, but they are really expensive (like $800) I replaced my 87 moldings with 89+ that I bought from a guy on this forum for a MUCH better price. Just be patient finding them. p.s. old moldings vs. new

    I pay $11/month. That is FULL COVERAGE. I am not required to drive only to car shows. My agent said "drive a reasonable, occassional amount". I specifically asked about car shows and parades, that I would NOT be doing that, but that the car is my "toy" and I would be driving it in the summer...
