How the Melbourne scene going??? Im gonna be down Dec 21-Jan 5th and im gonna need something to do and perhaps someone to go car shopping with me. Have you seen that blue 5th gen hatch rolling around Melbourne for sale? Thinking about buying it... not sure if its still for sale though, im gonna get ahold of the guy tomorrow (or try to) ~ ive been wanting a blue hatch forever and guess what I got dad to FINALLY say?


YES

YYYYYYEEEEEESSSSSSS.... I basically had to sell my soul to him to cosign for me, but he said we will look while we are down there ~ and if not we will be going to the Honda dealer (we know the sales manager... we can get $1300 knocked off a USED car ~ 95 civic coupe stickered at $7495 we were gonan get it for $6100...) but that civic hatch is WAY more my style, not to mention its like half as much ~ and I could talk dad into cosigning for the $6100... might as well get a swap while we are at it :D

hahaha, just wanted to say whats up!
:bloated:

Wasssaaaaaa?

The Melbourne Scene? I kinda dropped out. I tried hanging with the lowrider ppl, didn't work. I tried hangin with the import ppl, didn't work. So I said screw it. BUT I still know this town inside and out.

Frankly I've only seen one Harvard Blue hatch like mine and believe me, you don't want it. Dude screwed up the entire front end. I haven't been car shopping in a while, it's fun :) Do you want to keep this car here or take it back with you to NY? Cause if you want warranties and such it'll cost you but you need to stay here. If not we can take a risk and buy from one of the millions of lowlife used car salesppl.

BTW, Congrats on joining the car owners with GOOD taste :silly2:, The 5th Gen Hatch Owners.

Let me grab the pic for you... Im not sure if this is the car you were talking about ~ but yeah the blue is fuggin rare, I seriously NEVER EVER EVER see them...

Ooohh, that's not Harvard Blue. That's an even rarer blue on the 5th gens. Nope that ain't the car but I like it, it looks nice. So exactly what plans have you got for this sucker?

P.S. BTW It looks completely stock but if you look closely it has M3 style mirrors and the black trim on the bottom of the driver's window has been removed to show the chrome underneath :confused: Interesting, I'd like to see what other small mods they've done to it.

Yeah, I know it has that... as well as a gay CD player, AEM RAM AIR, clutch, & APC Sport mirrors recent work: New tires, axle, timing belt, water pump, cam seal, & valve cover gasket...

I LOVE that blue, what is the exact name of it? (or paint code too would be nice) im not expecting it to be perfect, cause well its 8 going on 9 years old now but hey I wanted a blue hatch ~ and I finally found one AND talked dad into the damn loan, its a sign from above I tell you :)

As far as mods, I am keeping that mum... Lets just say it has to do with Hasport mounts and my new swap business :) All depends on where I stand financially come after Spring Break Nationals ~ after that the snow will be almost gone and then the mods are coming :D

But yeah about the scene... the only thing I hate there like alot of places is everyone thinks they are the shit. They slap some Type R stickers on their car and chop their springs and put a $5 POOP Boys exhaust system on (that would be the annodized red/blue/etc muffler tip) and they think their shit is the best honda (or other) car around.

I really think that area NEEDS some good shops. I mean just like in the movie, "build it, and they will come" with a good shop that actually CARES to do stuff other then sell rims and Type R stickers and shoulder pads ~ and someone to guide those interested, I think they would follow. All it would take is to get a few people together that can install (motor swaps, rear disc brake conversions, body kits ~ yeah like a kit is hard... lol, someone to do paint and other body work, shaving etc.) and you have easy money.

Just get the shop cars hooked up, swapped, turbo, etc. etc. and hit the streets... after you beat someone, dont be a dick head ~ just be like we do all kinds of custom work... new motors, CAI, headers, exhaust etc. at a fair price and then hand them a card... BEST business you will ever be able to do. Thats basically what I will be doing with my car come spring, although I wont be able to install em yet (I have no garage living here at the spartments) if I can get hell even 1 swap a week sold I might be able to weasel my way into a shop and get rolling big time.

Oh ok, I thought it was like another granny car or something. How many miles does it have? And why does it look like he had some recent minor headwork?

As for that exact blue, I don't know. I hardly ever see it, let alone find out about it. And it doesn't have to be perfect but there are certain areas that should be in atleast functioning order, body panels, frame, accidents, electronics, ect. It'll make things alot easier later on.

And you're crazy :smoka: I just plead that you let me drive it man. I REALLY want to see what a hatch with a 2.2 swap handles like. Ooohh man just thinkin about it :D

Dude, If you can really go thru with what you predict, This town desperately needs it bro. Ppl will be talking about you from here to daytona. And you know what would be cool, there's an abondoned gas station that could be set up on the corner of 192 and babcock. That would friggin rock.

Ahahaha, we think so alike. I actually have had my eye on that ever since I wanted to get started. Just sitting there "Oh that place would be perfect" ~ but thats what I predicted... you would have from there to Orlando, there to Daytona, and there to Miami ON LOCK...

If I had soem STEADY income right now I would be seriously considering it. Although business is good right now, its no where NEAR where I would like it to be. Right now it just pays the bills and is going to allow for me to by spring time be setup with my swap and havent decided if im gonna just get a nice set of rims and bec-tech it up and keep it more or less a sleeper or go all out show w/ kit custom interior etc. etc.

As far as WHEN I will be ready, I just do not know. I mean, hell I still have many many years ahead of me only being 19 and all. And do I know in 2 years I will still be interested? Yes... and in two years do I know that Melbourne and surrounding area wont have any good shops? Yes... its all just timing. There are things like being able to swap, custom interiors etc. that I would like to learn more on first. Seeing as I havent done a swap yet, I would feel stupid having a customers car be the first one. And there is more to it then just bolting in the motor and sending someone on their merry way. I think I have be staying ahead of the curve for quite some time, and I will continue to by setting goals and reaching them. So it may not be this summer, or next winter, but I will make it down there to open up a shop. Even though there is probably MORE of a demand here, it snows (hahaha well USUALLY...) end of November through middle of March here ~ thats like 5 months out of the year, I cant possibly see making enough money the rest of the months to keep me happy ~ and to pay all the bills during the slow winter months. SOOoooOOoo... and of course you will be about THE only person I allow EVER to drive the car, but im sure you will be a little surprised as to what exactly it is :D

Oh, and get this shit. The Honda dealer that NEVER gets hatches ~ after I stop in they get another one. Just got it late last night and I got a call this morning. 1994 CX, 72k miles, manual, gay cd player.. $4995 (remember I know the sales manager ~ I probably could actually get it for $4k... but its WHITE!) I would much rather pickup that blue hatch, as it would be LESS then this, and then I dont have to paint it from white to blue :)

Maybe I will have dads mobile video setup done in the CRV and I can show you guys what pimpin the CRV w/ black leather is like... hehehe :flipa:

Dude you gotta take it one day at a time. You can't BAM open up a shop that does interiors, swaps and audio. Start with what you know and go from there. You already know audio, start there THEN goto swaps :)

Oh shit that was like earlier this week. Did you go on the day they scratched it? Or the day it went up? That's badass bro, I've never met a real life Honda expert before, I'm all up for it.

Ok well I'll be driving up to Atlanta on the 19th and coming back the 21st, which is friday. And christmas comes up that tuesday so I'm sure you guys probably wanna be with family. So I say we do it that thursday or friday which is the 27th or 28th. How does that sound. I can show you guys the only 10 or 15 "hooked up" cars we have in Melboring, then we can goto The Inner Room. A fine gentleman's club in cocao :smoker2: What do you think?

Mmmm, can I get in... remember im under 21 :(

Never been to a titty bar, I mean gentlemens club before :devil:

That's the beauty of The Inner Room, 18 and up. And the atmosphere is cool, not overly macho.

damn, unfortunatly im goin back to pittsburgh for xmas and im not gonna be back untill new years day so umm.. i dont know what to say....

and rice, as a matter of fact we went down for the one that got scrubbed but we ended up staying till tuesday to see it finally go up. thats why i got to take the great space coast tour of titusville, cocoa, cocoa beach, melbourne etc.. i was lookin for ya man cause i remembered you lived down there for some reason. i told my mom when we were driving around to keep an eye out for a hatchback with some blings!! you still got the blings right?

oh by the way, good call on the titty bar, i just hope i dont see the asshole i bashed when i was in cocoa last week. i was behind some kid in a silver 4th gen prelude that had an SIR emblem on it so i pulled up next to him and asked him what kind of prelude an SIR was and he said its a and i qoute "jap spec prelude" so i looked at my mom, laughed, looked at him, laughed, then proceeded to say " WRONG rice boy, its a fuckin canadian civic" he got all pissed and said its a prelude sir motor swap from japan look on the internet and i would find out. so of course i had to say " WRONG again rice boy its called a type-s get your shit straight" so naturally being pissed as he was he said "its faster then yours" and i said " it may be faster then mine, but your still a fuckin rice boy" and i turned and went about my merry'ol way.

moral of the story is the ricers in cocoa want my head on a stick so we got's to watch our back!!! anyways if we can alter the date to meet up it would be most phat indeed, just let me know.now that the boards are considerably faster i should be on more.

p.s. sparq your the stereo guy right? we need to talk my friend.

I am the one and only Sparq :) You can catch me on AIM under "Foreisp" or just email me anytime bro! nickt@redime.com


Im not sure when you all wanna meet up, but I will be installing a nice little mobile entertainment package in dads CRV... two sets of components (front and back) indash MOTORIZED 6.4" screen (hahaha my dads a pimp!) DVD player, not sure if we will be able to get to the sub box (12"... hehehe) and then of course the 3 amps... I told you my dads pimp!

Rice-rocketeer ~ you wouldnt happen to have a bunch of tools like table saw or some kind saw and shiat like that would you? Because me and my dad arent sure how much of my grandpas tools she sold when he passed away... so we arent sure how far I will be able to get. He will at least have the screen, dvd player, and components hooked up though :)

I've honestly never heard of it.. what is it just topless ~ or naked w/ no alcohol? I dunno if I can handle a half butt naked lady asking me if I want some champagne ;) hahaha... But yeah thats cool wid me man! I will be in Jacksonville after x-mas I think though, like the 28th or 29th? Cause we are going to the Gator Bowl (as usual) and we are meeting some hunnies up there (hahaha, so now do you believe me my dads a pimp? ) lol, this girl Jen @ my dads work shes like 21... yeah shes definately going to the game with us and shes bringing her extremely hot friend allison... I am SO going to hook up with one of them on New Years :D

Ok how about this:

That december. And January is attached in this one. I have two scenarios. One: I believe we should meet up the weekend before christmas. i like naked girls will unavailable from the 25th to 1st. Sparq will unavailable as well. The work week starting the 2nd I need to work during the days so the 21, 22, 23, 24 sounds good. What do you think?

Two: Highly unlikely but I'd like to goto one of theme parks in Orlando for new years with my girlfriend and possibly a few friends from miami. If it's possible for "girls" to make it back before new years, we could sneak into the parks after they officially close sometime in the morning due to overcrowding, have a great time and then get wasted New Years night. I did it last year, it was a friggin BLAST. What do you think?

Fuck, nevermind, this scratches the new years plan. I didn't read it right. :(

Oh man, you should've told me. I didn't ride around that much this week. It's the week before finals and everyone's running around like chickens with thier heads cut off. Besides I believe it was raining as well so it wasn't too pretty outside. That's why they scratched the launch.

And of course I still got the Niche's :smoker2: Although I'm easily recognizable right now cause I'm riding around ricer-style. I can't afford the front camber kit for now I'm riding on stocks for the front and Niche's in back BLING BLING :hehe:

LoL, Go easy with them, they don't know any better. And don't worry cocoa's a big place I highly doubt you'll see him again. And ricers don't usually drive around too much at 9 or 10 at night which is the time I usually go for the inner room. At around midnight is when it starts getting good !! :licker:

Topless but the G-strings are so small they leave nothing to the imagination. ;) And yeah they do serve alcohol. They serve a nicely strong Margarita.

I've got small hand tools if that helps any :)

ok for clarification that dates i will be unavailable are

dec 20th -30th

i know that fucks shit up but this is mom whos callin the shots and if i dont go along im up shit creek. now i may be able to pull a long one and do the new years thing if our travel home goes as planned, couple hits of acid should keep me going for a couple days although the lude will be in serious need of an oil change by then and washed and waxed so heres what i say

whenever we meet up rice your changin my oil and sparq you got the wash and wax detail, i'll be on the couch doin beer bongs if yous need me. ok sound good? phat lets do this!!!

no but seriously i am available anyday from tomorrow (the 8th) till the 19th. and then again from the 31st to whenever i get a life. keep me posted

p.s. rice the lude takes 5w30

oh yeah sparq im sure we can shoot over to orlando and find some crackhead to steal you a saw. god knows theres enough of them over there.

SHIAT.

Actually this might be better. I prefer the theme park thing more. Dude, while you're up at this time anyway, why don't you just call me right now to my cell phone, it'd be alot easier. I'll send you the number VIA private message.

gimme like 5 minutes

Alright Sparqy, I talked to "girls" and we've decided to go try and go for the the theme park trip on the 31st. We'll be spending the day at the park and enjoy the new years celebrations. Who knows we might do some shit on the 1st as well. We both need to make some calls and see who else wants to go. Whatcha think? You gotta go man, it'll be PHAT YO. :)

Well you guys have fun :(

Ill be in Jacksonville because the 1rst im going to the Gator Bowl ~ yeah I get to get hammered the night before only to wake up and be at the game before noon... ehehehe! For some reason I am not seeing this as going to work out very well... HOWEVER, remember I am going down there to look for a car, and if not I will be getting one when I get back... dude ive done the 19 hours drive before it aint no biggy ~ we can arrange something a little later down the road (maybe in the middle between now and SBN ~ March 22, - 24th) that way we can have some more organization.

Do those cats still meet up at that strip mall parking lot ~ where there is that little dick used car shop or whatever? Im trying to think of the name ~ forgive me its been awhile but I think it was like across from Hooters... I remember stopping there once, bunch of "mommy and daddy bought me this car and paid for all the mods" kinda peeps... but some of the cars werent too bad.

Dude, You said 28th, 29th, not the 1st.

Well I can still help you look for a car I guess. We have from the 21st to the 30th. And dude, SBN is 3 months away, That's a given that you HAVE to come down here for it :) The audio guy isn't gonna come for the biggest audio show of year???

But naw these ppl don't meet at the parking lot anymore. They moved it over to Andretti's parking lot, then moved it elsewhere and said they didn't want "lowriders" showin up :bloated:

Well thats what I said, so AFTER I get back, and make the trip half way between ... so like, mid febuary? That way I can leave the god damn cold! There is one problem though, my grandma is selling the house so I dont think I will have a place to stay... can I camp out in the backyard :D

And trust me, I will be at SBN... not sure if im gonna compete or not, cause im probably gonna want to swap now BEFORE audio, but I will for sure be there... we gotta get peeps together to go, SBN is always a fun time. You can watch me kiss Alma Gates ass... hahaha, that woman loves me :bandit:

Alrighty then, Keep me informed when you come here then. I wanna see the Hb :)

Thats if I get it :( I havent heard from em yet, and its been like 2 days. If I dont hear anything tomorrow im gonna give em a hollar and see if its still for sale or what.

If not, the dealer hear just picked up a 93 CX white hatch, like 70k miles or something like that ~ looked pretty nice, $4995 ~ and I could talk em down since ive got the dealer hookups, but I wanted blue damn it! hehehe...

Oh Ok, I'm assuming tomorrow's today so good luck then. And paint the biatch. It'll look alot better anyways than 7 year old paint :)
