wow that's Super cool and sound is the Blast

[@bendaga]

Thanks - really appreciate it

I don’t think I’ll ever sell my slicktop hawkeye wagon! Don’t see many at all-always the fa chassis nowadays. Plus the wagon is so useful(it’s a great 2nd or 3rd vehicle to have around)

[@bendaga]

Love a good hawkeye. I hear ya - I go back and forth about it. Hopefully it sticks around.

[@markmcmahan5045]

I have one too with 165 K , such a joy to drive.

[@pershot7]

@@markmcmahan5045 I’m at 161k and currently driving it! Enjoy your sweet ride

Never getting rid Ole bugeye

Dam that looks like fun and sounds great

[@bendaga]

Thanks! Yeah it was a good time

[@JuanPablo-zq9gd]

What a gorgeous sound

[@woodensauce1063]

I just swapped a jdm ej205 w/avcs into my bugeye. I have all the jdm goodies to get avcs running just haven't put them on yet, and it needs a tune. Running it with a catless downpipe as the major "mod" that requires tuning, but I've always heard the 02-03 ECUs can adjust for a 3 inch downpipe no problem without blowing the engine. 2 weeks driving it so far, I've commuted well over 1k miles, and even occasionally hard canyon driving. My AFRs are stable for the most part, these engines are robust! I imagine with a proper tune and avcs working it'll feel more like an STI (i know it wont just let me believe).

Jdm 2.0 ftw

[@ephraim9332]

Would you recommend this car stock for someone who wants a fun manual to drive? Thinking about getting one for my first car

[@veeembee]

not him but i def recommend it

[@ephraim9332]

@@veeembee thanks man. I think I’ll end up getting some sort of WRX. I was looking into the RSX type s but I’m too tall to fit in it 🫤. Plus the WRX is a 4 door so I could drive around friends

[@veeembee]

@@ephraim9332 for sure, i also recommend the 8th gen civic si as opposed to the rsxs its also a 4 door with a vtec k20 👍

[@ephraim9332]

@@veeembee Im too tall for the si lol. My main two cars are the 305z and a 2006 ish WRX. Im 6’6 and 15 so it’s hard to find a fun manual that I fit in lol
