I wouldn't have bought it.

I would have sucked it up and payed an additional $3k for a stock (and well-cared for) tib in my area. One I could have thoroughly inspected before purchase.

 

I would have got a blue one and I wouldn't have let myself get ripped off on my headunit. I also wouldn't wait so long to do these installs. Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with everything.

 

i think i would've done the same thing!!

Hmmm .. well im just gettin started on my tib... so the only thing i would really change is im gonna have to start carrying a bat around for the next person to smash into me... my car is awaiting bodywork and paint for the 3rd time this year... because of ppl who cant effing drive.. one more person hits me and its not gonna be pretty cussing.gif

My next mod will be gettin a header and the exhaust done... then clutch ...

 

I would have gotten a turbo 2 years sooner and probably would have had 500whp a long time ago. I spent way too much time and money trying to find the best way to get 2-3hp out of n/a mods.

Some people are doing that even now. So I'm trying to pass on my knowledge so they don't waste their time like I did.

 

If I could go back, I'd never have purchased the 17" wheels and crapy Kuhmos that I had on my car a while back.

 

I would have gotten a blue or tropic green RD2 instead, and put in a better alarm sooner, I'd still have my Clarion 7 Inch Touchscreen DVD player.

I wouldn't have bought some of the parts I've BOUGHT and sold without installing, and I would have tried harder in Korea to get more for my car.

 

I would have kept my civic while I stripped the tib and built it from the ground up while keeping the honda for a daily.. Oh well

 

First off I NEVER would have bought that damn Alpine kit!!!!! mad.gif

I would not have spent all my money on outside appreance, and I would have made my Tib a N/A BEAST! Then I might work on something on the exterior... Ahh if only I could really start over and get all my money back... 02.gif
