Default New to Honda-Tech..

What's up guys? I live in Nashville and know alot of you already, either in person or from clubsi. Anyway, for those of you who don't know me.. I'm Sean. I used to drive a 99 EBP Si with black and blue leather seats, 7" screen in the dash, 17" white Giovanna's, gutted trunk , dropped on GC's. It was jacked back in Jan infront of my apartment, so now I drive a 1990 Eclipse GST (had the need for speed). Here's my ride..

Before you ask, that's my wife. By the way, I was invited to the meet in Nashville on the 2nd between some locals and the H/T guys.. so her and I will be attending. Hopefully I'll have my GST back on the road by then (needs a new tranny, clutch), if not, I'll probably roll down with Devin.. aka VtecCrx22.

Btw, the new tranny going in will be alot stronger with CNC machined billet shift forks, double syncro 2nd gear, LSD and ACT 2600 Clutch kit with street disc. Then the boost controller and gauges go in, then the Big 16G turbo and everything else. Time to haul *** :D

Why o why --- why would you go from a buetifull 1999 si to a nasty 1990 eclipse/talon/stealth .... If it was money at least buy a 95-98 civ coupe/hatch ---

haha, well said. And 'ugly' is a matter of opinion. Don't get me wrong, I loved my Si.. but it wasnt exactly a Ferrari in terms of looks. I like the way my Eclipse looks, and the fact that no rice-boys rev on me now, and I don't run 15's, hah.

Yeah, the rims are ghetto-fabulous. I'm ditching them ASAP. I wanted to roll stock till I got new ones, but the 13" Baer brakes killed that, so I need to get other 17's first.. and my money is going into tranny/turbo upgrades first.
