Pretty much the coolest guy you'll ever meet. I've been in the US Coast Guard for 6 years almost, just got off of a 270' boat out of key west and now i'm living and working in Miami as an second class electronic technician loving life!

Decided to redo my entire bodywork on the Sol, i'm thinking either the '00 Si front with the CF lip and JDM fogs (check out ngenteknikz whip) or a teggy front end with the CF type R lip. Gimme some feedabck on which you think is better.
Just bought a '89 CRX HF for gas mileage. Pushing 55 on the highway and around 50 puttin around town is a beautiful thing when gas in Miami is soo high!
This car was a slow build, but near the end here it's been picking up much speed. Here's a brief on it so far. On the exterior i've got a Wings West Agressor front bumper and side skirts, A TCS rear bumper, A Vis G-Force Carbon Fiber hood and Vis Carbon Fiber Targa top, carbon fiber Trunk and rear garnish from GT factory. Being that i'm a Carbon Fiber slut (Iv'e even got the Integra type R CF shift knob, corny i know, but it's appropriate), I also got my hands on a very rare set of 18" x 7.5" CF rims made by, now extinct company, 01 Design Systems. Under the large scoop in my hood is the pride of all that is JDM. A FULL JDM B18C-R engine, tranny with LSD, and computer swap is the heart of my power. The Integra Type R engine although powerful, just wasn't enough. So I opted for LHT Performance to equip my car with their sick 400 series turbo kit. I'll go into details on that later. When the clutch pedal is popped, the ACT Heavy Duty Pressure Plate pushes the ACT Performance Street Disc clutch(rated to 243ft/lbs) against the XACT Prolite 8.8lbs flywheel with lightning speed. Ensuring the power doesn't rattle the car apart while the Stage 2 Gator Axles are launching it forward, is a set of shiny Hasport motor mounts. So the car performs as good on the track as it does on the streets, I've installed Tokico's 5 way adjustable Illumina Series Advanced Handling Suspension Kit, along with 4 strut bars for upper and lower application. What good is power without traction right? Fusion ZR1's 215 35 18 help keep excess tire spin to a minimum at the tree. As for the loudmaker, I've got 3" full polished piping from the exhaust side of the snail all the way to the Magnaflow can giving this speeder an aggresive, non-rycer sound. Keeping the temps cool is a Fluidyne racing radiator and Spal 13" 870 CFM fan. The turbo Kit is all inclusive and comes with the 400 Turbo from LHT, Presicion 880CC injectors, 255lph High Pressure Walbrough fuel pump, Tial Wastegate, Greddy Type RS BOV, LHT polished catch can and radiator mount, and Custom exhaust manifold with 3" downpipe. Computer work is done by the infamous Hondata S300 setup with a Greddy Profec B Spec II for pre-race, in cabin tuning. Because spark is soo important, I went with the NKG plug wires and Bosch Platinum +4 plugs for reliability. To make sure intake temperatures are cool, a front mount Presicion Intercooler uses speed and wind to keep charged air cool. All additional hoses are steel braided and piping has bead rolled edges for long term reliability. For feedback, the Boost and water temp gauges are both autometer and sit in a 2 pod pillar. A Greddy Turbo Timer makes sure the turbo doesn't suffer from cookoff after a long hard ride for added longevity. just did a rear disc brake conversion from a 91 CRX Si. This car is a long time planned build, and makes 298 WHP and 200 LB-FT on only 8.5 psi and pump gas. Not so impressed? Let me assure you, this is a completely stock engine aside from the turbo kit. It even retains a face freezing A/C. NO INTERNAL WORK DONE, and still maintains an 11 to 1 compression ratio and 9,500 RPM redline.
