Hey I just traded a 95 Cadillac for an 87 S12. I was looking at pics and noticed mine is nearly the exact car as a user that goes by Myth_s12. I was wondering if he was still active or if anybody know if he sold/traded his car to somebody. Mine is clean inside & out. Has about 164xxx on dash. I'm not sureabout much more than that. Its pretty slammed. Ironically has a "slammed society" bumper sticker

yeah that looks like myth's car he has really been on last i heard he was looking to for another notch but he still had his. Did the guy you traded to send you to our site? If so it couldve been him....

No, I found this place on my own. The pic I saw of his he had gold/polished meshs and its about the same height. I'll post more pics of my interior/engine bay after work. I'm from the Fresno area (2.5-3 hours from San Jose) so if he traded its possible it made its way down here.

I'm not sure like I said he hasn't been on in awhile and the last time he was he was looking for a notch but he still had his when he was looking...

oh and welcome btw lol

Nice looking notch, what are the wheel specs for the fronts? Do you have a full set? They look almost identical to my Enkei Apache IV's.

durk mcgurkMay 18, 2013, 4:23 pm · #6

4x114 or whatever. I wish I had a full set. The front drivers rim has a gnarly gash in it I'll have to get a pic because I don't understand how it happened.

Damn, yeah my fronts are also pretty rashed, and they're missing the center caps, which, you seem to have hehe. :gum:

Any chance you could you post some more pics of the ride height from different perspectives? I'd actually like to see how the car sits on those rims, I haven't been able to test fit mine yet with my coilovers.

Fresno, eh? Welcome to C-S12! Very clean looking white Mark II! How does it run?

durk mcgurkMay 28, 2013, 4:59 pm · #9

It runs pretty well but I need a TPS before I take it out for an actual drive. I'm from Lemoore about 40 miles south of Fresno

I haven't been through that area in awhile, as in since Gas left the 2 dollar range for 87 octane and road trips became a thing of the past :( granted, I was rolling in a V6 truck up until a couple years ago lol.

Is it me or are the rear wheels 15" and the front 14"?

durk mcgurkMay 28, 2013, 5:06 pm · #11

Front is 14 rear 16

Welcome!

What's the suspension set-up on your car?

durk mcgurkMay 28, 2013, 5:38 pm · #13

Idk it looks like the pervious owner cut all the spring out. I'm not sure I have a civic daily driver I've been putting all my time into.

ArroMay 28, 2013, 5:40 pm · #14

I'm in Riverside county, near Moreno Valley, but my folks still live in Rancho Cucamonga.

WOW 16's and 14's? DUDE you need some WHEELS ASAP. I might be able to get you a set of S12 meshies if you're interested. Stock wheels are 15x6.

durk mcgurkMay 28, 2013, 6:04 pm · #15

Haha I'm fine with these for now. I just spent 380 on some drugs for my civic.

If you ever want to sell the front 14"s, let me know, I could use a set of spares.
