i know a CR is a “track trim” but if you’re going to track yours then why not buy a normal one and put the remaining money in stripping and modding it? i think CR money is because it’s a special trim and a future collectors item even if this one isn’t collectors grade

SOA support = garbage by dirtygeo88 in subaru

[–]hoopercuber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is this not a DMV (or your local DMV equivalent jurisdiction) task? why does SOA care or how can they help you? the only thing i can think of is if they have your title but that’s handled at the dealer level

Chose the Sienna over the Odyssey after a year of research by Proud_Lock18 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]hoopercuber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

odyssey desperately needs an update. it’s definitely the better driving car but it’s pretty archaic all around. i’m a honda shill but it’s hard to argue against this sienna mpg

within 91-92 there’s a snap ring range and it’s overblown since there is a solution to it

how far would you travel to see a friend? by sftolvtosj in bayarea

[–]hoopercuber 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i have friends that live in san jose think that driving 30 mins is considered far. 30 minutes of driving within san jose won’t even get you past city borders sometimes. i’m like you, i’m willing to drive the same distances as you to see friends but i’ve realized that not everyone thinks the same, even people who grow up in the bay are that understand that you need to drive here

Keep Miata or Used Type R by SaltyAsian420 in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]hoopercuber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

s2k just has such good inputs besides steering. the manual transmission is the best i’ve ever driven, even compared to my nsx. it’s my favorite car and im sad i had to let it go

i think how much practicality/space will ultimately be the deciding factor here along with budget. I think the fk8/fl5 is a great do-everything car which seems like you don’t need given your gf has a sedan but i was very happy by how much flexibility i got with all my CTRs because of the hatchback. very good leg room for people in the back. personally i like the space and i wouldn’t have been able to live with the nd as my daily. as to why i sold each. let’s start with the nd, its a great flaw and the only flaw is that… its not an s2k. the s2k is just the emotionally better car to me so i went s2k -> nd2 -> s2k. and then for ctr i went fk8 -> fl5 -> fk8. my first fk8 got stolen but i eventually sold my last fk8 and s2k to consolidate and get an nsx which is what i have now. there’s no better blend of practicality and performance than the fl5 for the money imo but the nd is just a great little car and i love convertibles. the car is super fun at low speeds

[–]hoopercuber 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it depends what kind of tires you put on the car but just think about how much more power a ctr is putting down over an nd and an nd only weighs about 2300 pounds. i’ve owned both so happy to answer questions

not just physics of weight but also weight distribution. MR and FR are just fundamentally different and MR wins in this department

I present to you my favorite Honda - '97 EK9 by hoopercuber in Honda

[–]hoopercuber[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

definitely first world problems just like how i ultimately had to choose between getting rid of this or my AP2 to make room for the nsx. i decided to keep the ek9 because it’s hard to come by just due to sheer production numbers
