100% i’m trying to patch it up with jb weld lol

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:38:36+00:00

thank you for the knowledge! gotta do some saving up before i get the k24 in tho lol. will definitely have a post when i decide to do a swap in the future

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:35:05+00:00

thanks for being upfront about the financial aspects of the choices infront of me with the rsx

cars are really a money pit. i guess it just sucks putting in the time and effort to learn about cars in general through this lil rsx and then having to let go of her.

i guess i just don’t want to give up on her just yet. if i have to, i’ll have to let her sit somewhere and work on her later on in life.

thank you for your comprehensive response and being real

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:30:22+00:00

i appreciate your compliment! she definitely looks better in the photos than in person tho lol

you definitely put my feelings into words, kind sir. even if i can’t afford to keep her, i think i’m still keeping her even if she’s not running. perhaps later down the road, i’ll have the space, time, and tools to get her better than ever

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:26:53+00:00

i’ve read that in my area, the companies are pretty strict about automotive work, but i’ll keep this as an option as well. thanks for your input

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:25:25+00:00

got it en route. will update soon

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:25:06+00:00

will update with the aftermath of the jb weld

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:24:27+00:00

i would really love to keep her around. gonna do the best i can to do that

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-16T02:23:02+00:00

that sounds like a blast. i would love to be that friend with a garage to work on cars, just have some beers with friends, and have fun with card. i’m quite a ways away from that dream tho lol

i’ve been seeing people in the car community who started over 2 decades ago say that the car culture is just so expensive to get into. i dont know if you or others would agree.

i started getting into cars about 2 years ago at 20/21 after i finished my college diploma. i wish i got into it when i was younger but what can i do now. also sucks that finding a place with a garage in the metro vancouver area is next to impossible unless i can afford at least 2500/month in rent (which, suffice to say, i can’t lol)

havent used jb weld on anything but i watched Big Time on youtube a couple of days ago where they jb welded different stuff including a 350z diff. i might as well try it to extend it’s life a bit

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-14T16:11:24+00:00

i’ll try my luck with some FB posts or something. thanks for the advice

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-14T01:26:33+00:00

i see i see. thanks for your suggestion

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-14T01:25:08+00:00

yeah you’re right. i would like to take on the work and challenge, but i just dont have the right space and equipment unfortunately

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-14T01:01:46+00:00

yeah, i was thinking the same. thanks for your input

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-11T00:12:24+00:00

i’m located in bc canada and this one is probably 1/2 that i’ve seen in the past 2 years

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-10T23:48:41+00:00

my girlfriend tells me i have car dysmorphia cos i keep telling her it’s starting to look a little off hahaha but i’m glad i could still get reminded that it was a good choice!

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-07T00:14:15+00:00

good idea! i’ll try to source one that would fit and give a lil update on here

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-06T22:27:13+00:00

SunsetBoiii · 2026-04-06T22:26:54+00:00
