your motor/wheels/suspension costs more then your car

a paint job and rust removal is on the top 3 list of things to get done to your car

92 hp doesn't feel all that slow

you itch to find a climate control in mint condition

you'd pay more for some discontinued CRX floormats then you would for someone to fix your car

you think power windows/steering/locks are for pussies

you've had condensation in at least one of your EF's lights

your stock exhaust is only slightly bigger then a Wendy's straw

you do 95% of your shopping at a junkyard

you chase down old people driving mint EF's asking them if they'd sell it

you're scared to drive in Winter for fear of your car rusting

Keep it going......

you know you dont have to check clutch resvr for fluids.

you check always check for straight bolt on cat back exhaust on catologs. only thermo research and obx.

you hear LX EX you straight out think their talking about a 4door.

you know when youre in a 90-91 from the power seat belts.

you still wonder why honda didnt make trunk latch for the 88 dx sedan and why its only 200 more pounds then the crx.

you wonder why are the 88 rear struts are the same as integra type r.

you wonder why they changed the 88-89 tail lights to 90-91.

you wonder why the 90-91 under dash, and glove box are more fat compared to 88-89.

you wonder why the 90-91 didnt come with the pocket coin and small pocket compartment.

you wonder why the front EX brakes are better then hatch and crx.

when it's rainy (high humidity), and your engine don't start, you know, what's the reason for (Distributor) and you just need penetraty oil to fix the problem and your engine will start, if nothing happend to it. Rolling Eyes Razz

lol.

You know you own an EF when people comment on how low it is when you're on stock suspension.

You know you own an EF when your ignition key and trunk lock key are different.

You know you own an EF when driving in front of or next to trucks makes you nervous.

You know you own an EF when you buy parts that may not fit your model, but you do anyway because it's rare.

You know you own an EF when driving a car with the steering wheel and seat in line with each other feels strange and foreign to you.

you know you own an ef when someone comes up and is amazed it is still on stock paint.

you know you own an ef when you see chrome (altezza) taillights you cringe.

you know you own an ef when it gets hit in the front by a big bronco, and you still drive it home on a flat.

you know you own an ef when you're constantly on CL saying "thats way too much for an EF!"

you know you own an ef when you pull up next to a mustang and think, "i can take him."

you know you own an ef when you see an EG, or an EK and laugh because they're just like every other car on the road.

You know you own an EF when, 40-60% of your car is held together by zip ties. (or is that all Honda's?)

You know you own an ef when your designated cup holder is between the seat and the ebrake.

You know you own an ef when your hood is warped from years of hood prop standing.

You know you own an ef when you wont justify spending 500 dollars on shocks... BUT if you had a brand new civic then 500 dollars doesnt sound so bad.

I HATE that. Quality parts are quality parts no matter how much your rust bucket costs.  Evil or Very Mad  Laughing  Confused

you know you own an ef when you find one for $200 dollars, and are already thinking about selling it for $1200 after a month of work on it. (my plans for a car i'm possibly getting this weekend)

when EK and EG owners are the enemy
when you refer to stock height as monster truck lol
when it only cost 20 bux to fill your tank and it last you 2 weeks
when even tho you have dual point you still somehow smash everywhere you go
when you never kno how fast your going cuz you were to lazy to put the speed sensor back
when driving between semis on the freeway scares the crap out of you
when the junkyard is like the candy store
AND you know you own an EF sedan when you bring true meaning to JDM lol Very Happy  Very Happy  Very Happy
