The one and only! lol! It blew up within 100 miles of ownership, hydrolocked by previous owner who happened to be my gf...now ex. Then put a brand new Integra Type-R in it and drove with no bumpers because I couldn't stand the ones that were on it, haha! It eventually cleaned up decently, just still slow and a lot of noise.


Here she is 3+ years ago: Tein Flex, Porsche Brakes, B18C5, homemade splitter/spoiler...

Your car looks familiar. Did you ever hang out with any of the Honda Tech guys?

The only places I hung with it were at the race tracks really crewing for a Honda Challenge/NASA/SCCA club team. I can't stand Honda-Tech. The Porsche brake kit and spoiler/splitter I built was cool until they discovered I didn't have authentic "JDM" wheels, lol!

Pulled the old M10 out today. My donor chassis is an '84 one owner so no emissions, antique tag, and dirt cheap insurance!

D-bags on there anyways.. the Porsche brake kit is way more 1337 than the spoon kit.. LOL.

Thats cool.. which team did you crew for? I flew out to California to crew for the PasswordJDM team for a couple races a few years back.

Lockwood/Raceworks then OPM Motorsports if they needed an extra hand.

I've always been a fan of PasswordJDM stuff, I'm in the design process of a 3 point strut tower brace for e30's similiar to their Carbing replica on Honda/Acura's. The e30's are so solid I'm beginning to think it's not even necessary...just one heavy duty one across like the Sparco may be enough.

Building another Porsche brake kit for the e30 and hopefully one for Miata's as well.

OPM may be why your car looks familiar then. I met a Tom(?) from OPM a few years back (might have been the owner maybe?), and he invited me out to take a look at a Prelude track project they were working on. Really nice guy, from what I remember.
