Default Newbie from malta here!!

Hey guys just wanted to say hello and well done for a great site!!!

As an introduction to myself i am from Malta im 20yrs old. Now for the imp stuff I drive a JDM Integra type R 96spec. She's got a few mods like :

5 lug conversion incluing all the suspension and brakes of a 98spec,
Koni Yellow shocks on standard springs
4.7 diff of the 98 spec
ACT flywheel
5Zigen catback exhaust
The only quarter mile time i have is a 14.08 with a 0-60 of 2.6.

I also take part in the National hillclimb championship of Malta, we race a ralt single seater which is now powered by the F20c

Have any of you guys been to malta? The tuning scene is enourmous for such a small country and there are a lots of fast honda's !!

how do you have a 0-60 in 2.6 and end up running a 14.08 with pretty much a exhaust flywheel and whatever

Well ure right about that my 0 to 60 is 2.336 slight error woops , I closed the line wit 101.19mph and all in all made a time of 14.080. Well thats what the official time sheet says. In malta we have standard type'r even doing high 13's so i dont know why you are so shocked.

i know i wasnt too sure about the exhaust myself but it came on a halfcut teg and i bought it cheap + its one of the nicest sounding exhausts around. The whole system is extremly light compared to the stock system and the improvement it gives is quite impressive its a track exhaust though so everyday driving does get annoying, but its great for scaring people

thats what i meant... a 0-60ft in 2.6 and still running a 14.0.. means he pulled hard as hell with what I stated above.. but non the less nice R... expect the exhaust "tip"
