yup im still alive and well. some of you OG's will remember me.
i ended up selling my accord in the fall of 2013 to pursue another project. it was tough, but the car had sat for 2 years in my shed since i was overly busy building my subaru (which i also sold) and turning my dd lexus into a less boring dd. the accord changed hands a few times before i lost track of it. last i heard the 19 year old stoner kid who ended up with it blew the motor, which boggles my mind as that motor took everything i ever threw at it with no issues at all. i almost wish i had parted it out so it could never fall into the hands of someone who wouldnt respect it for what it was. goes to show you no matter how much of your heart and soul you pour into a car, theres no guarantees the next person will treat it as you did. luckily, i sold my subaru to a close friend, and he loves it just as much as i did when i was in the process of building it. funny thing was, he had two legacys in a row just like mine, that he wanted to mirror my build with but rusted bodies forced him to abandon the projects. and in the end he ended up with the car he wanted to replicate.
im still good friends with noxidea (sean) who ended up selling his accord also due to rust consuming the chassis. damn new england. the knowledge and experience i gained building my honda is invaluable and i wouldnt have the skills i do today if it wasnt for that build, and this stellar community of enthusiasts that helped me go from a forced induction n00b to a pretty competent mechanic/tuner.
the car scene has changed tremendously since i joined this forum, and mike (deev) has kept this place going, adapting and tweaking with the times. there honestly isnt another forum like this that ive been part of to date, so consider yourselves lucky to have this one.
whether you stick with this platform for ever, or branch out to another one of the awesome cars that are out there, dont forget to remember where you started and how you got there. yeah, i started out with a honda, and i wouldnt change that if i could.
gone but not forgotten. 526whp of H/F hybrid awesomeness
current stable, constant projects.
dd, GS300 sporting a jdm aristo 2jzgte vvti. 63mm BW turbo
money pit, 94 supra tt/6spd. too many mods to list.
winter beater, cause it snows in maine. $500 home made turbo weapon
and because i cant pass up a good deal, i have a honda again.
cheers guys, keep this forum going. its one of a kind!
