just another newbie in OzHonda

[ajbm]

Hey all,
i've been cruising along OzHonda for a few months now and it seems I can't stop coming back here... I'm not new to honda, nor I consider myself a pro!
I bought my first car back in 1999, a white EG civic, breeze, hatchback.
I had a JDM B18C with LSD gearbox upgrade in 2001, it was an unfinished project I could not afford back then, so I sold it in 2006 after getting married.
I've been driving a bomb car to work for a while, and so I managed to convince the missus to get me real car (a Honda). Then I looked around and fell inlove with the Gen 2 shape CRX.
I guess now I'm addicted to it...
My first crx EF7

Welcome to Ozhonda old school addict :wave:

[mrwillz]

i wannt see the glass roof

rare as

[ajbm]

hey guy's thnks for the welcome,
I've just spend all morning with the EFs was abit curious... pulled both front bars out, trying to see if they are interchangeable...
-so far the headlights and parkers are not!
-bumber mounts under the blinkers have different lengths (therefore not interchangable, otherwise needs to be moded to fit)

[hisoka]

look on nwp4life.com. heaps of people on there done gen 2 swap on gen 1. i always thought it was interchangeable....guess not

[ajbm]

thanks guys, i just love these old school cars... specially the EF8
here's the glass top mirrors from the top

where can I get amber parkers for EF8? ive been thinking of doing that!

The EF7 was my first crx, RTA is making it hard for me to transfer Vic rego into NSW due to the car having surrogate VIN, so I decided to get another one, the EF8, from QLD. :)

[jks24]

welcome, both cars look really clean!

[ajbm]

my dilemma... two EFs, but only one garage!

[Troy]

[ajbm]

I can't afford paying two regos a year so... only one of me driving it!
very much like having 2 wives, U can drive only one at a time, but pay double for having the both of them!

[tOniies]

[ajbm]

thanks again guys... there are alot of us with black crx ef8s from CRXAUSTRALIA here in ozhonda :thumbsup:

[Troy]

They both look like nice machines, I don't think you'll have too much hassle selling them. It sure looks like you look after them well (from the limited point of view I have here).

Well, I mean only selling one.

thanks again man,
i don't want to sell, it's always good to see the both of them everytime I walk past my driveway. but, I can't afford to maintain them both,
I'm sure someone else out there can give it a more undivided attention :cool:
