Default ITR-1268 owner CHECKIN IN!

Sup guys!!

I'm a proud and VERY Happy owner of a 2001 ITR, White/white.

My first reaction driving the car was.. OH FU*$##$KCK YEAYYYY!HHH wooo! hahahaa....

The car is amazing, drives like a dream!!! (like new too..props to the previous owner..) I'v never ridden a car like this before and have had so much pure excitement!!

It handles AMAZINGLY, i mean i can take turns at 130-140km/h and the car doesnt even slouch on sharp turns!!! (Of course im taking it easy! dont want to hurt my baby)

Iv owned many cars .. THIS IS A KEEPER! I KNOW IT!!!!!

My mods are Sparco seats, AEM INTAKE, type r bodykit, lowered 2".. mm thats all i can think of right now.

So cya around guys! Here is a pic of my car..

OH BTW>. i know my car has an immobilzer.. and I have an alarm.. but i was thinking of pulling out IGNITION fuses from my ECU under the hood when i park it for longer periods... is that a good idea or not?? im so paranoid!!!!!

You can be extra safe with her but make sure that you blur out the plates though so you're not even more paranoid! Good find...looking good!

get a turbo and some gigantic injectors....and when you park the car pull the ecu...so if a theif has a spare oem ecu he wont even be able to drive the car because the injectors will be dumping in sooo much fuel

ohh yea, i almost forgot.... you will have the benfits of being boosted (chicks, chicks and more chicks)

Very nice indeed. I wonder what the previous owner did with the front red seats.

It must be nice to know that if your're ever in a bind for cash you always have those rear-seats to fall back on

thx Mires :D

Anyone else here ever just feel like giving the ITR a nice inside/outside clean/detail and just parking her in the garage just to stare at?? hahaha.. i feel bad using it as my daily driver! (i dont know why..).. i think i need to get a beater for my long drives!

yesterday i went to tim hortons and groups of kids jus came up & oogled the car..hehe.... its also that everyone keeps wanting to dragrace me.. wtf?? im getting flyby's and takeoffs @ lights all the time.....i didnt bother at all... but there was this one civic coupe that wouldnt stop revving at me... I feathered the clutch and was pulling buslengths ! lol..

Im still amazed as how it pulls like a mother$$$ once it hits 5800RPMS +...slamming it into 2nd gear and still being in the VTEC powerband is a NON-STOPpull... i did it alone yesterday and his /shut down 210km/h like NOTHING...

I assume my suspension (lowererd) helps with the traction/acceleration? (anyone give me an insight on this?? ) aswell as handling.. I also got the AEM intake.. its pretty neat, i hear it suckn in the air when i step on the throttle.. hehe ...

Anyways, once again... this car is amazing :D ill never willingly part with this car ever, hope to be one of em collectors in 25-30 years

ciao!

The R can hold its own; it's by far the most fun car I've owned/driven; yes even compared to a Supra
