Default >> Cold, rainy, crappy Nebraska winters. 2 5th gen hatches RUNNING STRONG

My buddy wanted a couple pics of his hatch, so I played along and we went downtown. Mine is the Milano Red one, with winter wheels, 1989 Accord 14's. \m/ (~ ~) \m/

He used to have a s13 240sx, SR20DET, silvia front end, Blitz everything, Recaros, Nismo wheels, but got rid of it for this. If you recognize the hatch, its from Kansas City and was in HIN last year, as well as several events in St. Louis with racing.

I dunno his plans, but it might involve, de-kitting, new lip kit, new paint and rims, and then more motor work.

They're all painted different, 14's with all different tires, but at least they're ALL all-season.

LOL. They suck. I spin them everywhere. Can't get any traction when I actually find my self in a situation where I need to handle around a corner or downshift into 2nd or something. OH WELL.

Look at some pretty sticky tires for the 15's next year for auto-crossing, and possibly Mugen NR mirrorface for daily rollers.

HKS Carbon Ti

Turbo back. Sounds like sex. The slant is a little extreme, but it grew on me, and the car sounds perfect when it raps out. Not overwhelming exhaust noise, not overwhelming turbo spool. It's a Full-Race kit, built b16, and it does exactly as it should... haul ***.

Don't really like the bodykit on the black hatch, but the motor looks mean.

Indeed. It's some lip kit I've never heard of, and not my thing nor his (owner of car) and he wants to get rid of it.

Things shall happen this spring :D
