Default I'd like to welcome myself back into the honda croud.


Welp i was strolling home from the office last thursday afternoon and i passed the local Acura dealership and i seen a Nsx sitting there. So beings i never really seen one up close i stopped in and scoped it out. The salesman asked me if i'd like to get a closer look. So i was like sure so he grabbed the keys and opened it up for me. I sat in it and it was really nice and confertable for being a sports compact ( not as comfertable then the M) . So anyways the salesman was going on about the features and then we were talking and i was telling him about my S2000 that i owned and sold. So he asked if i would like to take the Nsx for a drive. I should have said no and saved my money but i was like sure and he went and got a tag for it.
Man after driving it for about a hour i feel so inlove with the car. I went back and we talked about the financial part. So as were sitting there talking my wife calls me jsut to see where i am cause i am normally never a hour or so late for dinner. I told her i think i am buying a new toy. So i went home and picked her up and took my son and dropped him off at my moms and me and my wife went and we took it for a test drive and she was like whatever ya know. Well friday afternoon i picked it up from the dealership.
And here she sits infront of my house.

Immerse yourself.

Stock NSX's look like monster trucks to me, they're so high. Hehe.

Hey I'm going to a tech school for computer networking, do you have any advice on going out searching for a job or getting certified, how long did you go to school and what certifications do you have? Sorry for all of the questions I'm just real excited about this career move we are currently taking Novell and we are learning a lot. Nice car by the way!

What's with the time line post?

Nice car. My only experience with a NSX is driving a 91 NSX like a turtle. I was too afraid to hit anything. So how much was it?

Advise for searching for a job, Well a clean resume is always a plus, just put simple things, get the the points. Most colleges have a thing were they will direct you in the way of companys that are looking for people like you.
I have a Bachelors Degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Then i too some Microsoft courses witch were provided locally. After that i pretty much started out working for a local network agency. The pay was decent for just starting out. After working there for about a year i got the hang of everything and i talked it over with my wife and i went and talked to my Marine Corp. Recruiter about the benifits i was giving for enlisting in the marine corp for six years. I used the money they gave me for starting a business and slowly but surly it all came together. Well good luck with schooling and pursue your goals. Thats what i done, and if i can do it i think anyone can.

i only had my s2000 a few weeks with the supercharger and nitrous kit. But i did get to use it. I think the supercharger was a good power adder, but you really dont notice the supercharger till around 6000RPM. Some say its just like a "Super Vtec". I day i sprayed it was pretty fast.
But if i had to do it all over again i'd pay speed-craft a visit. Speed Craft has a turbo kit witch i heard alot of good things about. Of course it cost alittle more but you will feel a different alot sooner then 6000RPM.
I recomend scoping http://www.speed-craft.com out.
BTW- i am looking around for some info on that twin-turbo Nsx. I have been thinking, well nevermind its a secret..
