I'm really undecided on what to do with the Beater now. I may still get an insurance claim on it. If they give me money and let me keep the car, great. If they total out the Beater, fine. If I do end up keeping the car, I'll probably part it out though - my father in law could use a few parts from it (exhaust, a door, etc) and I could sell off a few other things - like the minty fresh HF tranny. :) |
Dax, if there's ever anything you need from the Japan Yahoo Auctions for your beat that the guy you're buying it from cant'/won't get for you, just let me know and I can have my guy over there order it for you.
You may already know this, but if you want to search the Japan Yahoo Auction for Beat stuff, this is "Honda Beat" in Japanese: ホンダ ビート The complete "Honda Beat" search result: https://search.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/j...ode=2&auccat=0 |
I have always wondered why honda is ホンダ in japanese and not 本田 like the family name. I guess there's nothing like buying a book field to drive to work in...:)

I'm only seeing question marks...hahaha

DaX, u see ?'s for the japanese characters, or all you're getting is questions about the beat?
i see squares instead of japanese. :confused: :D |
Yep, ?'s instead of Japanese characters. But I did look at the Yahoo auctions, some of them. I want the freaking hard top!!!!
Someone else on here should buy one, then we can get together and have a Beat Meet. :eek: |
There is a "Z" version that was offered with black paint, an LSD, and some other options like a black gage face. I found this black gage face, but it isn't the Z version, because it has a 10K redline - both reular and Z versions only have the 9K redline.

i read somewhere that there were two versions.
a hard top would be awesome! |
I've spent the last hour plus combing through the Japanese Yahoo Auctions...there's tons of stuff available. Google Translate does a fair job of converting the pages to English - enough to where I can get the gist of what the auction is for.
My cluster is the white one with the 9,000 RPM redline. Another thing that makes me think I'll be ok in high RPM's is that it makes 64 horsepower at 8100 RPM...can you say high powerband? I love my NM icon, but I'm changing it... |
check out engine placement in this pic.
