Honestly all in a matter of opinion, I lost a lot of space to put shit lol. This car has a few imperfections, my Si had a dime size dent in the fender from me not taking my keys out of my pocket before hooking up some stuff. That was it. The only reason I got rid of the car is because I want a truck, and I know I couldn't get out of the car what it was worth. This one has a little more value, so eventually I'll get a truck. I swore that was my last honda. lol. But for now I'm enjoying it.

Funny enough I've got a friend that has a black one. I did pretty much DD the car, it wasn't garaged it stayed under a car port. In Chattanooga there isn't much Honda theft, I parked it at the mall for hours, gym, movies, school. My house is not around many people I'm surrounded by woods, and I'm also a proud Beretta owner.

It's a custom built "twin scroll" divided manifold. Helps spool bigger turbos faster.

Sorry to hear about the diff man. That was a pretty solid trade though. Post up in the automotive build section if you plan on doing anything crazy with the rear end.

My buddy in Tennessee has that identical front end on his NFR.

Nice trade

Ehh it ended up just being an axle when I crawled under the car luckily. However on Christmas day I did break second gear during a pull. New trans going in the car in a couple of hours though lol. But I'm sure the diff is next, so I'm just going to go ahead and buy one when I find a low price lol.

mzurk, honestly I probably won't ever put a beefier diff in the car. Unless I make the mounts myself. If I planned on using ford parts I'd just swap the terminator in also lol. But I've got a 8.8 rear and also a 9" inch sitting at a friends house he said I could have, just not really interested in spending crazy amounts of money on the car. I'm still waiting on the right truck and the cars gone lol.
