first car was 89 CRX, then had 1.8 LS swap, waaaay back in the day. I wrecked so many V8's with that thing haha...

also owned a 2000 Civic Si with the usual bolt-on's sway bars, and skunk2 coilovers. AutoX'd the piss out of that thing.

Almost bought an S2000, but went with FR-S.

(I even sold hondas in Hawaii for a few years as well)

/salute from fellow Honda lover, and oh your car.... /touch!

Thanks for the complements guy's. I am so happy to see Honda heads in here and even some early day OG's from hondatech seem to be lurking. The car does move out. I have never taken it to the drag strip ever, not one single time in 10 years. Based off some of the friends I've done some pulls with, its most likely a mid 12 sec car.

Nice! I still have dreams of Kswaping my 99EK, but the thought of getting it stolen shortly after always prevents me from throwing money into it.

Great to see you're a Honda lover too! I am thinking of getting a Civic hatch as my first car, and then when funds flow better, I can finally get an FR-S like I've always wanted.

HEY!!! wsup my fellow honda heads =D

My first car was a b18c1 swap ej1
got to much crap from my mom so I sold it
she made me get an automatic fa1 -_-
refused to work on it, but couldn't help it.
After I graduated I became a medical assistant and picked up a dc4
with a type r front end, few months later gave it to my brother and then picked up a fa5.

6 weeks ago on the way to work, I was hit at a stop light =/ but ended up picking up a BRZ.

Damn dude. That sucks. I always wished I got white instead of the blue on my 2011 Civic Si. She has 29,500 miles on her and she is being traded in for my BRZ when it gets here

Thanks for sharing! I grew up following OGs like the op :happy0180:

My first car was a 2003 Rallye Red Honda Civic, and I should have kept it.

Next was The S2000. All I have to say is that I have very nice parents.. My Dad bought this right after high school graduation Labor Day 05'.

To make a long story short I screwed up, and got sent out of state to college in CO. After 8 months the s2k was traded away. Almost two years later I bought a 04' STi. I fell in love with The WRX long ago, and this car was my cup of tea.

I also had a four eyed 86' 5.0 around that time. Stock, fuel injected, full exhaust, and 140mph speedo. I foolishly traded away this Mustang, and made about $300. I owned The STi for almost 4 years before it was stolen. 50,000 miles I put on that car, owed some money on the car too, but it all worked out in the end (GAP insurance).

I see myself buying a Camaro or BRZ in early 14'.
