Hi everyone. I picked up my first type r about a month ago from Brian (EARLdaSQUIRREL). I just thought i would take a second to introduce myself to everyone here. My name is Kevin. I've been reading a lot of posts on here lately and figured i should throw up some pics and say hi.

About the car: Its a 2001 #0180. I purchased it knowing that it would need a little work. Currently has low compression in one of the cylinders, so i think this winter will be perfect for a rebuild. or if i can pull some extra cash together that longblock Dave is selling seems very tempting. I'll try to keep you guys updated on what i end up doing, and hopefully have everything running great next spring in time for some trackdays.

Here's a couple pics i took with a crappy camera in the driveway. better pics to come soon.





wasn't really a big fan of the exhaust that was on the car. just got a buddy club spec II going on this weekend.

ya. it's the same thing as wingless. it just looks like something is missing, as if some scumbag has taken a screwdriver to it and prized it off.

 

Yikes... look at the smoke stack coming out the back. Did Earl cut that off a cruise ship?

 

Long block has been SOLD.

 

Great news for both
