As some of you know I recently bought @mercutio's bb9, was really good to meet you bud.

Car needs a couple of small things done but the plus point is the main body of the car has NO rust, tbh I can only find one point and thats slightly around the rear bootlock, even car park ding wise your hard pushed to find any.

Only had the car a week but already swapped the terrible 262's on the front for the 282's of one of my many breakers :lol:. Its made a huge difference, how honda figured 262's could stop such a big motor is beyond me but its something I no longer need to worry about.

Do have a few plans for the car but first thing is to get under the car and wire brush the floor and underseal all the arches, floor and sills to keep the rust away.

Wasnt planned bud but don't want to start the old 4th v 5th gen wars as I love my 4ths, just got tired of them rotten away, this came up and was an extremely clean base so couldn't say no.
