nakama is amazing, so is sawa (by monroeville mall) i recommend it to anyone
MONDO, just for curiosities sake would my car be an absolute dog at autocross??? Id like to hang out and race with you guys, but a laggy *** turbo and an exedy triple arent really conducive to autox. would i embarass myself?
i also have a bone stock 00' s2000, but after 60k miles the tranny and clutch are pretty compromised so i dunno if id risk it in the honda. what do ya think?

if you want to come out i would be happy to ride along with you and yell GAS/BRAKE in your ear a few times. i'm a slow *** driver, but i have a proven track record of coaching people to going much faster than i do while in their passenger seat.

i coned on my first 3 runs but ended up with a 43.668 on my last run. not terribly impressive but more than enough to crush bud foster in his silly plastic vette. i would have won class if they hadn't dumped paul and his race tires in to my class.

it makes for some fun in the rain or when they lay out a course that has a turn out of your field of vision to to the elevation change. keeps you on your toes.

thanks! yeah, she basically told me about 6 months ago, if i spent another penny on my car without buying her something nice, she was going to go find a doctor or something haha.. Now that this is finally finished, I can re-buy some fun stuff. but not till next year.
My 25th is in oct. sooo i think she will budge then! I will keep ya updated
yea, it was an option but... she will eventually make more money than me since she will be further educated than me... And she is one of the few girls that i have EVER trusted. Soo, im trying to keep this one!

I am thinking adding a FMIC, and maybe some hard pipes as well a few other things and turn the boost up (somehow) to 30 psi from 24 i could see mid 11.50's or faster out of it.
but.. i dont know what route i wanna take with it. But it would be either an AMS or Buschur one i imagine.
