If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here... A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within. @llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore. |

4 - this was covered earlier in the thread but it's because we have massive pickup trucks here who can not possibly see a car as low as mine behind them and evidently my bumper is made of some mysterious magnetic plastic that seems to attract their tow bars
I need to be loud in order to be noticed and keep my front end beautiful

All 3 fans at the same time - that's what is really perplexing to me. WTF does the A/C fan have to do with the radiator fans? [Absolutely nothing - I know]
It's just hard to deal with when it makes you miss an important, however assinine, meeting at work and then I gotta bug you every single time something electrical goes wrong? Not cool IMO. -------------------- ENGINE: '93 RC 3S-GTE/WRC CT-20b [18-20PSI] PERF: TRD/HKS/ARP/NGK/MSD/ACT/Blitz/STRI/APEX'i/TwosRus/GReddy/Magnaflo/KOYO SUSP: Tein/Bilstein/SusTech/ INT: SS-III SEATS/Toyota Hyper Sports EXT: WRC/TRD/404 QUOTE (lagos @ Aug 25, 2010 - 10:13 AM) Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.

Some a$$hat took a crowbar to my GT4 hood a while ago
Thanks to my alarm he only got one whack at it and ran like a little b!tch.However, a BRAND NEW ONE is coming my way in two days courtesy of Ping and Stephen!!! [If anyone wants a killer deal on a damaged but perfectly fixable GT4 hood with the factory holes for the spoiler - PM me]. Also courtesy of my Mom and lil' Bro it'll actually be painted to match the car soon. I love Christmas  Other things new: -MSD Blaster2 Coil [Stock one took a sh!t] -PS2 -iPhone4 connected to Kenwood DD Screen so internet, youtube, iPod functions, etc. Oh yeah!!! I'm on broken axle#6 for this year LOL. I'd say 300whp/wtq @ 20PSI is essentially the upper limit for S54 axles.

Some people are haters. I expect it was one of the Honda tuner kids or redneck muscle car humpers here in my neighborhood that was upset when my car showed them "The Honda View"  [I can laugh about it now that I have a new hood days away ]

It's been a rough year for the car but here's hoping 2011 is a great year for her. Getting a new hood and paint on the 1st day will go a long way towards starting it correctly!

The new hood is installed and fitted [2 hours later - they never fit well it seems] and the car is all black now!
First the old hood and it's damage:   Off it goes [note the short sleeves in January Gotta love Tx]:  Sweet pic of the car without hood [yes that trailor was pulled 2hours with an ST with no problems  ]: Installing the new hood:   Installed ready for the hood pins:   After fitment [which if you've never done it isn't as easy as you'd think]:  Not the best pic but dark came quick. I'll get better pics tomorrow At least she's all one color now!!!
