My name is Mike. After searching and searching for a forum to help in my quest to build a daily driver/weekend warrior, Ive decided to use NPORA! Im not one to jump from forum to forum. Coming from All motor civics(96 ek with/ cr-vtec swap) and entering the dark side for a few years(dsm), Ive decided to try my hand at the R50. So be patient with me and questions I might have. I will search before I asked the typical newbie questions. Im the second owner of this green machine. 86k miles on it when i bought it for $2400. Currently sitting at 97k miles. I did all the basic overhauls stuff and all fluid flushes and changes. I will be doing timing belt change as well as rear trailing arms replacement in about 2 weeks.(i got the wobbles going, lol!!) Then Ill be ready to go. I know its early on the timing belt, but I figured if I have the money, I should get it out the way. Anyhow, Im excited to be on this forum! Now if I only knew how to post a pic for u....cough cough!

I'm not sure if anyone else noticed but our next new member will be #10,000. I say we all hide behind the couch (sofa) then jump out and yell "suuurprize...you're our 10,000 customer" when they join!

I see a trail ride in order for summer. Mine has over 270k and I don't think particularly careful maintenance so you'll probably make it just fine.

Sounds like fun. I should have shocks and springs put on by June!

I checked my budget and its only gonna allow me to get :

Struts/Shocks

Strut Spacers

Oem bearing and mounts

Alignment kit

Will I be okay with stock springs(only have 10k miles on them) for level 1 and level 2 trails. ?
