Nice! lol we are not really a "crew" either just good friends from back in the day! Other cars are:
900hp 94 civic sedan,
Turbo H22 94 accord 750hp?? I think(this car was in H-T a couple months back) 3 other ITRs,
GSR integra
and 2 other EG's

I hear you on not hanging out with "honda people" all 5 of us in that picture went to middle/high school together so have been friends for 17+ years and the other cars we roll with I have know those guys for 7-10+ years.

We dont really welcome "outsiders" Its just kinda cool that we stuck together all these years because of hondas

We aren't a crew at all, just came about when a new crew came around in our city that called themselves "1% Motorsports". We thought it would be funny to name our "crew" "Whole Milk". 1% **** is to watery. Most of my old honda buddies either sold their cars and bought bikes, sold their cars and got subies, or their cars got stolen and they bought trucks or other non-hondas. Pretty sad really.....

Yeah, that's awesome man. Finding friends who you can get along with for that long is pretty rare. I moved to Oklahoma about 10 years ago and to be honest didn't have too many friends when I first got here. Coming from VA to Oklahoma was quite the culture change and the "import scene" was non-existent here. Everyone thought I was weird because I liked stock bumpers and black wheels and didn't care about having a system or APC racing seats.... Most of my OG friends from about 8 years ago have kids, don't care at all about Hondas and we don't really hang out anymore.

Yea most of my friends have moved on from the whole scene we just hang out together. Hondas give us a reason to hang out in the garage and BBQ lol None of us daily our cars any more we all have something nice to drive because we are all married, have kids etc. We kinda got our name in a similar fashion.....GFI because my buddys brother said we were always doing some kind of "Ghetto Fabrication" and it just stuck......just kind of an inside joke lol mostly building turbo kits.


Here are a few of my friends "eg's" some are still around, some have been sold for other projects and they now have ITR's, S2000's other civics etc.

Since its the EG thread I will just keep it to 92-95 civics

Do you have any pix? How much slack is in the cable? You might need to get a different cable.

I know you said "I enjoy my car everday of my life, its not a garage queen" Well I dont enjoy driving my hatch every day of my life. I can daily anything I want and I would not want to daily my 18 yr old hatch anyway lol I enjoy it on special occasions/weekends does that mean I should get rid of it?
i have never thought of it as a toy but that is a good point. seems like i have seen this debate many times lately. i think it shows age/maturity in most cases. i used to think the same thing when i was "younger", oh man that is a show car..why build it if you dont drive it etc. then i got older and wiser to say the least. i worked my butt off to get the car to the point it is today. so i can choose to do with it what i want, call it a garage queen because it is. call it a trailer queen because it is but the fact remains i enjoy the car now more so than i did when i drove it on nice days and/or weekends. the car has never been a daily driver and at this point in my life it wouldnt even be realistic as much as my daughter would want to ride in it daily.

im going to guess on a limb here, that is not an oe bracket. i tried an itr bracket..didnt work. then i put in an itr cable..didnt work. so i drilled two holes in the itr bracket..works perfect.

if someone that is friends with me on facebook could throw that picture on here it might help him.

wow that is G! Love it, anymore?

Theft and risk of driving on the streets in fear of a possible accident is more than enough to keep us from driving around daily. Its too much risk to put your car on the like everyday when theres not a whole lot of enjoyment from driving through shitty roads or sitting at a stoplight. If you can afford to drive something else for daily duties, then I think you can enjoy the Honda more because you take it out when you see fit and it can be prized more or viewed as "special".

I'll be keeping my car street legal for those weekend drives or to go somewhere every now and then during the week but the longer you don't drive the car, the more satisfaction you get when you do drive the car so being a garage queen isn't all bad actually.

I agree Seattle is super bad for theft besides, why would I beat the hell out of the car I love in the rain, rush hour traffic and city parking if I didnt have to? I love my car and im happy its sitting in a nice warm garage at home while my daily takes all the abuse. Its a fun toy and every one has a different idea of whats fun weither you drive it every day or not.

Now a trailer queen my car is not lol


on J speeds instead of the TE37

To be honest, I'd just move it over one hole and use one bolt to hold it on. I did this on my h22 with pro series manifold and it worked just fine.

My car is a garage queen but used to be a daily for 3 years before I painted it. But I'm happy it's a garage queen, just makes me happy when i only drive it a few days a week and like someone said earlier makes it seem "special" when I do drive it. I was going to pick the girlfriend up and take it to dinner but looked on the radar and saw storms in the area, no driving it tonight I guess lol.
