So for my B-day I decided to through my turbo kit onto my b16 hatch. After a weekend of fabracating and making sure that everything was perfect I was finally able to drive it. However, while I was in the garage it started to rain. I first took it out and didn't hit boost for about 10miles I would stop periodically and make sure that everything is perfect. Long story short the fist time I hit boost I end up hitting a fire hiedrant. I was not speeding or doing anything stupid. It was just that I didn't really know what to expect and because of the rain I had no traction. I know that it was my fault. I am just glad that no one is hurt. Another car down now I will try again.

that sucks, but wait to see the pics.

 

sry to hear that, but what do u think is going to happen when u hit boost in the rain?

 

That has to be the worst luck that I have ever heard of.

Hell, my buddy with a b16 in a crx used to break loose when he hit VTEC in the rain in 2nd gear. Sorry to hear about your accident, perhaps it isn't as bad as you think. Post them pics

hell yeah!!!
That sucks that happened bro... goodluck

 

Sorry, but I don't think a 17 year old needs to be driving a boosted tricycle even.

 

Damn dude.. I really do not know how you guys do that ****...


I mean, I was young too back in the day.... But come on...

Do yourself a favor and re-evaluate yourself... If you cannot control your car on the first test drive, I really would hate to run into you during normal traffic....

Please, be more careful from now on... try to learn your limits...

The purpose of this post is not to make you feel worse than you already feel, but to make you realize that you still do not know how to drive.

 

damn that blows i hope that doesnt happen to me when i put my turbo in

 

damn.. sorry to hear abt it.... better luck nd be more careful next time.

I just turned 19 about a month ago and had a boosted hatch when I was 17. Sorry to hear abuot your luck, but damn..you should have known better.

 

That's the gayest thing I ever heard. I don't know what's gayer though: a kid wrecking his newly modded car because he can't drive or a kid being able to have a B16 turbo Honda when he's 17 .

 

this is why kids should not have fast cars

 

Did this happen on a straight road? I'm assuming it was on a turn. I don't understand how that could have happened. If you felt loss of traction why not let up right away?

 

 

**** guy thats shitty i used to spin 4th in my MX-6 on rainy days and when i hit vtec in 2nd in the rex

 

thats horrible.. i know you were excited about the turbo kit but why did u test drive it in the rain?? common sense says, dont drive fast in the rain.. and a turbo hatch = fast..

 

sorry to hear my friend but at least you'll live to turbo a car another day..

let alone have another birthday.. some of us aren't as fortunate when testing our rides..

 

here are the pictures for ya cj, come on cj keep it on the track

 

ouch i can just cry looking at it

 

damn at least your ok... I Recently crashed my car too... But i Have to say that was the funniest thing i heard all week LOL (Sorry)

 

Wow...that is alot of damage...however, like the saying goes..."you live and learn"

 

Damn, sucks about your car. But c'mon, first time driving a boosted car and you do it in the rain? Thats just common sense. . .

 

hmmm...glad your allright. Dont take this wrong, we were all young and dumb at one point (well I can say Im not young anymore )but consider what happened as a sign of what could happen.

People are always building cars and riding critch rockets way beyond there driving skills. Its up to you to learn your car and become that better driver.

Hey, got any pics of the hydrant?

 

damn i knew i should have got some of the hydrant for him but i forgot and its fixed now, it did flood the lawn of the house behind it they were asses when it happened so they had it coming, right behind the door part of the hydrant was stuck into the car, we kept it its our trophy haha
