MODS: I know there is an image forum for everyone, but please leave this in the beloved Integra forum for a number of days. Its not much to ask...

Hello folks, I am new to this board, migrating from SHO.com [a notorious board filled with the immature and the unknowing]. My name is Matthew and I'm a 20 year old Pacific Islander currently residing in Irvine, CA [literally infront of UCI]. I hear many great things about this board so I migrated and come here when time permits. I have knowledge to share (from personal experience and accumulated information from various sources) for the curious and wisdom to teach. I love Integras to death and I consider myself a Honda/Acura enthusiast. I drive a 1995 GS-R. It has had many evolutions both aesthetically and performance wise (which will most likely never end) and if you guys have questions to ask, I will gladly answer them.

An idea of my daily grind...
These were taken 5-02-03 @ 2-2:30pm---no sun, overcast.
For those who do not know me, my car was stolen last year of August but was quickly recovered with a loss approximating over $2000. But for those who have anticipated...I finally had too much time on my hands and decided to snap several photos.

Ladies and gentlemen, I present you "KITT"--name derived from the show Knightrider, hence my name NightRider :D. Enjoy!

In no particular order...


A quick peek... prepping to cross to the FI side.


All black except for that reflective license plate, I would remove it but cops here in Irvine have nothing to do but harass people with no front plates.


Damages are obvious from the theft...bodylines do not match as well when I first got it from the bodyshop.




Blacked out my headlights a week ago...you might wonder:
How does it light up? Normal [I have to readjust the way my headlight aims] & I'm currently rocking the 9005 conversion with Sylvania Cool Blues...pure white in the night time.
What about the high beams? Who uses them? Plus its nice in the nighttime when I can turn on the highs and not blind people. Oh, and the white in the lows are the reflection from the flash.


A shot without the flash.


Since my fenderwell was taken out (due to tire rubbing and without mounts with my front bumper), I custom fabricated a shield for the air filter out of plastic to prevent any debris from the tire getting sucked up by the intake.


A closer look.


Last but not least, a peek of my really good longtime friend/roommate/crewmate's [civicjdmgsr here on honda-tech] car as he was leaving today to go home for the weekend

IMAGESTATION members, for a view of my album: click here

Flames are welcome, comments will be appreciated. I'd be more than willing to answer any questions. Until then my fellow Integra and Acura/Honda enthusiasts... '1'.

"Wildest"...hehehe [just wait till my car evolves again but this time I will be joining the JDM crew]. Its a Street Weapon Drift kit designed by 935Draggers. It sits really low... and since I am crossing over the FI side, I will install an FMIC and you will never look at my car the same again when I come up behind from your rearview mirror.

Welcome to -Tech!

 

welcome

 

looks good!!...WELCOME!!

 

My car used to look much more decent and I used to have gunmetal rims, but those were the many items stolen [I hope those theives get bit hardcore in the ****, "what goes around, comes around"].

And As I expected, most people here are very homily and I really appreciate that! ...I live in Cornell Ct BTW not Columbia...hehehe. I will be getting my whole front end repainted very soon (front bumper reconditioned), new fenders (if anyone is selling a good condition driver side fender, please email me at DntBeJocKn@hotmail.com) as well as my sideskirts reconditioned & new polyurethane back bumper. I will also be adding some custom fitted turn signals, maybe some hid fogs and new mesh---and of course a 4100K 9006 kit.

cheers
NRG

I use my high beams. Even w/ HID low beams, I still need the highs for dark back roads and dark interstates at night.

 

Apple juice bottle is "custom"?

Let me start by saying "welcome"
