Leaving the FI world =(
Well the time has come for me to move on from worrying about my car and having to work on it constantly. My current life doesn't allow for me to have a car like this. Maybe after I get done with school and start making some real money, ill be back.
I went from this:
To this:
Previous Owner went a lil crazy with the red, but it doesn't look all that bad.

yup, im really enjoying it nice and quiet compared to the thermal 3" and open dumptube. Love it way more than the civic in terms of driveability.
civic was fast though

Why it adds a bit of contrast to an other wise bland and cluttered engine bay.
I will probably replace the red loom though, but its not like im trying to wins shows, its a reliable daily driver.

lol only if that were true, I wish I could turbo it, but its not the right time in my life to worry about a car. besides the lude is too heavy ~3000 lbs

the LS made 300 hp / 275 ft lbs of torque with 8.8:1 compression so it took 15 lbs.
I was just tired of the little things like oil leaks from the XRP fittings and the AEM ECU not liking to control my A/C. stupid little stuff like that.

Jeez.......You didn't even have that thing for a long time. Just seemed like yesterday when I was asking what setup you were going to run and were talking about the auto to manual swap.
Oh well, I really hope you have fun with the prelude. Atleast you stayed HONDA
. Good luck, and hope to see you back boosted soon!

yea, but thats probably what got me out so fast (not having it for too long and the little things annoying me.)
been about a years and a half since i started building it.
I will definitley be back, turbos are just too cool.
although it may be in something better ie. supra
but that wont be for a while.

Damn dude, this is crazy.. I think you will be back though, you were way to dedicated.. Enjoy the prelude for now.
good luck

At least paint those calipers poop brown before anything else.
At least you think you'll be back to the boost world at sometime. Good luck with what you do.

yea painting the calipers black is the next thing on my list. as well as taking off the red eblem on the hood that has turned pink lol. I guess the kid who had it before me wanted a show car and gave up
revi, i love those rims, but im a big fan of the stock body. so im prolly just gonna lower it and MAYBE rims, the SH rims are nice but some deep dish rims would looks usper sweet.
