Hi guys I picked up this hatchback in seattle and cannonballed it back to San Francisco.

The car is a total pile; 250K miles, low as hell on BC racing coilovers, all the smog equipment is gone, it's got a orange peel roller job for paint, and some rust in the hatch and spare tire well, but it's more fun than any of the S2000s, miatas, or just about any car i've owned or driven.

I'm looking forward to building it up, and hanging out with you guys.

Rough around the edges, but all in the right places.

Looks like one hell of a good time to me!

Yeah it's a ton of fun. I'm gathering the few remaining smog parts to try to get it registered now. Along with trying to collect the various parts it's missing.

Thanks I'll create a want to buy ad along with adding progress here I suppose. I've gotten most of the smog equipment I think.
Items I absolutely need:
Stock airbox
Charcoal canister

Items I would like to have:
either a TRD header or a stock exhaust manifold (I can get the TRD header exempted by the CA Referee)
Full blue or Full black interior, pretty much every panel after the dash. Which basically means all of this stuff for both driver and passenger:
kick panels
scuff plates
carpet front and rear (have trunk already),
door cards
GTS rear seat side panels
all (5?) trunk panels/speaker covers

Oh and the freaking rod that goes on the driver side door exterior lock. I have no idea how the previous owner lost that thing. It might just be easier to get two doors honestly :(
