I love it man... My ride started out just like yours... So I guess you could say I grew on my car....haha...

[bagoon316]

looks clean, as for your gear problems, you could try changing your tranny fluid to the penzoil synchromesh. i had a nasty 3rd gear grind and it went away when i ran synchromesh. bout to put it in my wrx tranny and a half and half for the differential. i am sure some others are running it on here and can vouch for the stuff. its about 4-5 bux a quart at autozone. g/l, like i said it looks nice and clean!!

[kouzie]

that thing look clean...
post up more pix!!!!!!

[MR.PHIL]

Nice arcadia coupe you have there Bro
future plans look nice,keep it up

[Rootznation]

looks like a nice coupe project! keep us updated now especially when you slam it.

[accordtypeR]

Welcome to the family buddy and thats a clean cb you have there but we need more pics...

[oranger]

Thanks guys! bagoon316 i'll try that. im runnig synthetic gl-5 (oe spec) right now...not helping me. like i said its currently 222xxx miles so synchros are probably just gone, but i'll try that.

yea i need more pics, im working on that. need some sun, not too much of that up here. i forgot to mention all the body work i have to do..big dent in the right rear quarter. sucks...anyways! thanks guys...ill definately update as i make progress. need summer to come for money...

[accordtypeR]

Good luck bro and keep us posted...

[oranger]

UPDATE:

I've made a few changes to my plan..

Suspension:
KYB AGX's
Ground control Coilovers
Drop roughly 2" in the front and 1.25-1.5" rear. Going for the rake'd look...I love it.

Motor:
First thing: P/S and possibly A/C delete. Those two things piss me off....

Far future: buy another A6 motor (junkyard) and build it up with a goal of 125 hp/liter. for a total of 275. A bit audacious, but I've heard of guys with civics building 300hp all motor non-vtec motors....that kinda thing is my goal!!! I love all-motor...so pure and beautiful...although turbo'd cars sound amazing...

[tresexohcb]

Love the color man, good to see another arcadia coupe bro here in Wa.
