I'm not going to give the normal Honda-Tech rant about a body kit...Or some wing. All I can say is that your car is very nice. It looks like you have put some hard core cash into it, and believe me it shows. I personally have no problem with kits or anything when it comes out looking like your car did...Especially when someone has a phatty ball-bearning turbo under the hood. Great job on the car...And BTW, SOHC rocks!

its not neccisarily cash then lets say work. I'm a graphic designer and basically what I get paid in is car parts and services along with just having a great group of friends and family to help install stuff for less.

That's a very clean car. What kind of H.I.D's are those?

If you ever launched an automatic turbo, you'd know. I'm not flaming you for asking. It's different than launching a manual turbo, you can build boost and shoot out of the hole. Good work on the car, it looks damn good, what kinda wing is that.

EDIT: just looked at your webpage, your car is sick dude, awesome job.

Wow, that's a really clean and shiny car. Makes me feel not as bad about having an AT(I bought it that way before I planned on doing anything to it and one thing has led to another).

nah its actually in one of the parking garage's at UF off of museum if you know the area. While everyone was watching the UF FSU game I took advantage of the empty parking garage . Anyways, I'll admit I didn't choose an automatic because its what I was given when I first got the car. But I did choose to keep an automatic instead of a manual because I really wanted to be different. There's others on this board doin the same thing and trying to go this route and I really admired their dedication.

AND...like everyone else said...launching at 5psi and just killing anything at launch is just so fun you would not believe.

Yea I think it is a really hot car, I just didnt know. I used to drive an auto but I like the control over my car more with a 5 speed. Learned omething new today. Thanks. By the way those are really great pics.
