Thanks,

My Son is really into photography so I'm sure he will get a big laugh out of this pic!

If you ever have the chance to drive an Evo go for it. They are definitely a very unique car to drive. I especially like the torque (276 @ 3500) and it hits full boost (19 psi) at 3500. 75% of the torque is available at 2500.

This car has the best brakes of any car I've ever driven, the ride is very much on the stiff side for a daily driver.

When driven at the limit if you screw up enetering a corner you will get a slight understeer. However if you're in a corner at speed if you back off the throttle it will shift enough weight forward to go into a very controllable oversteer condition.

Seems pretty weird to put the car sideways in a turn and have all four wheels spinning.

The '03 had LSD in the rear only, it doesn't have the ACD and limited slip in the front.

Thanks for the comments,
Be safe,
Bob

 

nice evo! very clean....

im in the market for an s2000 right now and i live in the seattle and was wondering if you could discuss how the s2000 was in the rain? the s2000 would be my daily driver and im intrested in hearing your thoughts just because of all the posts ive seen in the s2000 talk about how it sucks in the rain and/or how they spun out. however, i do realize a big part of it has to do with driver error and tires. it seems to me that here in the pacific northwest, its not THAT bad in terms of rain (sprinkles, small showers yes of course but its not bad)....but its those days where it just pours like crazy is what im curious about especially on the freeway and in the city. i guess im a little concerned just because my car history only consists of FWD. thanks in advance!

Not a fan of Evo's but yours looks clean, especially since you changed the tailights.

 

Thanks 9krider,

You know I used to think the OEM lights looked all right until I got the VII's, now when I see them in my storage space it's like Geez, I wanna just smash them, tried selling them and that went over well. I hate the Altezza look.

I think the new Civic Si head and tail lights got the same treatment. I mean it looks like they tried to make them look like some crappy aftermarket light.

Just my $.02, not trying to start a war or anything,
