The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

Lol you think those pictures are bad, look at my post prior..
I'm going with I've angered the detailing gods and they're punishing me with freezing cold, snow, and of course excessive salt..

Lol I need to start hunting these aliens then

I just read an article in the Houston Chronicle that there have been mtiple ufo sightings from San Antonio down to the Rio Grande Valley over the past month or so. That's a little too close to home for my comfort zone but interesting nonetheless.

Lol x2 to his compliment! And he's right!
Lol I'm sorry :( and me too lol, anything new with you or the smurf? Or baby smurf! Lol

No nothing really new. However I did finger #### my car with DODO BV LMAO. I just did it to the hood to see if I would notice a bigger difference but I didnt :(. Guess ill stick with my Petes for now. Even the D301 wax leaves a nice look. However I have been really contemplating on getting the Gtechnique EXO. Its really intreaging me and the shine seems to be on par if not better than a carnuba.
 
Thats a great looking SI you got there :xyxthumbs:. Thats a big compliment coming from a Ford guy lol.

Thanks a lot for the compliments, PapaSmurf! Any compliment is a big compliment to me. Much appreciated! :dblthumb2:

Thanks also Sonic!!!

Marc08EX,

I like both the red and silver but I especially like the color red on the coupe! You got a sweet ride there! That car has got to be a little ball of fire! I will be posting a thread in the Show n Shine section in the next few days with post Opti-Guarded Pics of my Twin Turbo FD. Look out for it!

I'm looking forward to seeing that thread.

I had that too. When did they decide to come out of the closet?

I don't know why they don't just come out and admit that their paint sucks. Always has IMHO.

It was fairly recent. Maybe half a year ago or less?

I agree Honda paint sucks. My first Honda ('99 Accord) had very thin paint and the clear failed very early in its life.

My guess is that people don't really know that the paint from factory is at fault. Or they're using low quality paint or standards. Honda knows that they're still going to sell cars no matter what because of the rewards/recognition they get. In addition, their reliable reputation.
 
Why did you get rid of your FA5?



Nice mod list! I really want to get a header but it's just a PITA to install. I'm not after extracting all the power anyway. I just want the car to sound good. And damn 230whp!!! WOW!

Mind if I ask how you blew the engine twice? Is it because the new redline is now 8600RPM from the FP tuning?

Is it bad if you get on it often? I've been hearing mixed opinions about it. Whenever I gun it, I always feel bad but a lot of people say the k20z3 can handle it and it's meant to be driven that way.



Damn!!! Baller brakes! I didn't even notice them. Those look SWEET!!!!

What other plans do you have for your s2k? S/C?

the took me about 3 to 4 hours to install, its hard without a lift and the proper tools yea its a tight squeeze and removing half of your engine bay lol.
i had already bought some S2 cams retainers valve springs etc from a member on 8thcivic but i blew my engine out the 2nd time and finally just parted it out and sold the car.
yea i wanted to upgrade the top end because the rev limiter was closer to 9k and if i had the top end done i could go closer to 10k.
but i think red lining should be fine i think 8200 is the max on stock ECU.
for the AP2 hopefully this year Turbo, if my gf gets the GT-R. i cant have her have the faster car lol
 
Come on people, we need some more American cars in here.:laughing:

sometimes you have to pull the car into the sun to really see a difference, I didn't notice how much I loved SS II until I pulled it out of the driveway, and just had this warm shine to it, hard to explain, but I was pretty much just like.. damn! that looks pretty good!
up to you on that one, I'm not a coating fan :dunno:
 
Here she as, as she sits. All ready for a little road trip to Oklahoma to a casino.

Sigh only if i knew how to upload pics and take pretty pics.....

I learned how to resize, upload, and post pictures to autogeek with the help of articles written on the subject by Mike Phillips. They are all in the subforum "Tips, Techniques and How-to Articles for Interacting on Discussion Forums"

He has I believe broken it down into three parts (Resizing/uploading/posting)

Its a bit of a learning curve but its not too bad to get down. Hope this helps.

I can't help you with how to compose pretty pics. To upload them I use Photobucket. I copy the img code of the pic I want to post and then paste it to the message. Easy peasy.:props:
