I dropped off my Civic at the shop last night to have the engine fixed up and cleaned up so that I can sell it. My Integra is in another shop converting the engine back to a high-compression NA motor, so I can sell that too. Anyway, my friend came to pick me up last night from the shop to take me home - he arrived in his Subaru Impreza WRX STi, and he could see that I was feeling down, so he gave me his car keys, and let me drive. Jumping onto the expressway, all that was ahead of me was 4 lanes of emptiness with curves galore - contributing to 100 Baht worth of gas, I floored it all the way back to my house, with the sounds of his turbocharged boxer engine and his weird sounding Sard R2D2 blow-off valve ringing in my ears. I miss my turbo so much I hope i'm not making the wrong decision

(sorry if this post has no meaning, but I had to release my feelings..)

 

Its cool you have another turbo car on the way...

...but it sucks you are done with hondas.

 

you sucks....I wanna go back to jakarta now.....

nice nathan....as long as you have boost, it'll be okay....

 

damn i'm going to miss the posts of the integra & civic.
maybe u can get your hands on an fc of fd....but people move on even with cars.
i hope u stay on the board tho....your pictures are awesome...

Damn, that sux man. I enjoyed reading your posts, and I wish you luck w/ whatever you decide to get.

 

i loved ur turbo teg.... sorry to see it go.

 

Just dont leave H-T!!

 

mobil loe buat gue yah

 

I guess i'll still be here on H-T, because its the only place i'm ever at when i'm online plus i've made lots of friends here - and if I ever start earning lots and lots of money, i'll deinately be buying another Honda and doing that up - probably by that time, it'll be an EP3 rather than an EK9

BTW, there are a LOT of turbo parts from my integra that i'm selling.. anybody interested in anything? Like a full F-Max turbokit with custom intercooler piping + Evo 5 intercooler? IM me

wooooo 180SX !!!!!

 

As long as your boosted you'll always be part of the brotherhood

 

oh, you like?

In thailand, they're called the "200SX" and come with a CA18-DET engine as standard (1.8l turbo - auto & manual transmission) - the one you're looking at has an S14 Silvia SR20-DET engine swap, with those ever-so-nice donut lights at the rear + rare nismo rear-wing..

 

no way.. those rotary engines aren't exactly what i'd call "fuel-efficient" - my evo will be carrying monitors and computers in the back seat & trunk.. don't think an FC/FD3S could do that very well..

 

Good luck!

 

DUDE!!! THAT'S AN STi RA!!!!!!!

HOW!!!????? *cry*
HOW FAST DOES IT FEELS?!!

 

its pretty quick.. but i've raced this car with my teg, and i killed him at the top of 3rd gear quite badly.. but then again, his car is a reliable daily driver - mine isn't. OR should I say "wasn't", since i'm jumping back to NA now

 

yah 180SX only JDM spec

you will only find fast WRXs in australia nowhere else

 

Ummm... how many 22B Scooby's are in Australia because there a three on the ROCK where I live. That's (3) that I know of out of 500 made.

Nathan.. happy boosting bro'!

 

Sti's are very common here in the UK. I've seen a few STi 22Bs in social and club meets, still very rare and quick as hell!

 

Hell, i'd settle for an authentic 22B 2-door Impreza anyday!

As far as I know, only 1 made it to Thailand, and I've only ever seen it one time on the street - I guess the guy keeps it parked at home for show

 

Don't jinx me, I haven't got the car yet!

 

So you gave him ~$2.50 for gas and he let you drive that beast?!!
Lucky bastard

 

Caltex 95 octane only costs around 39c / liter that's considered "expensive" for Thailand 116 octane costs around 70c / liter..

 

um...yea...i'd pretty much sell my soul to lucifer to have that car.
