It's pretty damn fun. The low-power gets kinda old quick though. Maxes out around 65mph. Otherwise, awesome.

I miss my Honda's

-1988 Honda Civic Hatchback; D15B VTEC, Si 5MT
-1988 Honda NT650 Hawk GT; still have it. Long term project, apparently.
-1990 Honda Civic DX Hatchback; Completely stripped and caged, failed project.
-1994 Honda Prelude VTEC; mostly stock, best sounding Honda motor if you ignore the C32.
-2003 Acura CL Type S 6MT; very not stock , I miss this one the most.

Stroked J32A2, 3.6l. Made 294/275 at the wheels running pig rich (AFR was 10.7:1 past 5k rpms).

I still have the Hawk GT:

It's been in a project state since Winter 2009-10. My problem is a small project quickly snowballs into a huge tear down as I continuously come up with new ideas. It'll never be "done", but I can't wait to get it "ridable" again.

'93 Civic LX


'93 Prelude VTEC




Amazingly fast time of 9.01....in the 1/8th.


The wife's '97 SH.


I loved the Preludes. My only gripe about them was that they were FWD and lacked a 6th gear. The FR-S, to me, is everything great about the Prelude, plus the two things I felt it lacked.

I can imagine... all of that.

I'm hoping to pick up something a little bit bigger once I move away from here (it's suicide to ride here). I wish I could see the Grom making sense but it never would. If it wasn't so dangerous here...
