I HATE my winter beater...But I got to drive my SiR the other day!!! **PICS**
Well since my car's put away for winter...I don't get to see her too often. It's stored at a friends place 30 minutes away. Anyways, I figured I'd take her out for a ride, seeing as how the streets are pretty much dry and clear. Man, It feels so SWEET after driving my shitbox for a month now!!! Anyways, I snapped a couple pics when I pulled it out of the garage...
Finally took some decent pics of the MBRP exhaust also.
ENJOY!
Check out my winter beater on the side of that last pic!!!! bwuhahahaha DEATHTRAP on wheels!!!

Rep Power: 0 Hey, glad you guys like it! Thanks for the props...still a lot of work to do though.
Actually it was still clean after a 40 minute drive. Like I said though. The streets were dry, and clear that day. The only street with any snow on it was the one in the pics!
I got it at London Honda. They've usually got a bunch of them.
As for the winter beater [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] what you can't see in that pic, is the front hood. I hit a deer last winter with it, and the hood's a little crunched up. lol Could have been a lot worse. I found a replacement hood for like $50 at an auto wrecker, but I haven't bothered fixing it yet. I really don't care about it...it's a beater.
I've saved up a bunch of cash, and come spring, I'm putting an AEM CAI, DC sports header, Ingalls Camber kit, Boring the Throttle body, and installing the Hondata heatshield gasket. Dumping a lot of cash into it, and nobody but me will even be able to tell.....mwuhahahahahahaha! Body mods will come later. Go, before show!

Rep Power: 0 Yeah the camber's out in the rear. Can't really tell in those pics, but in person...the rear wheels look like this /----\. The camber up front is fine though.
As for the boring. I'm taking my car to Forrest & Forrest Racing in Kitchener. That's where I've gone to dyno as well. I already know 2 guys with SiR's, that have had it done there. So I trust them. If you'd like their address and phone number, let me know.
I might get a friend to help install the gasket. He's in Cambridge, and has already installed it on his car. He even posted a "how to" with pics on ephatch.com. I'm not looking forward to that install though, it's a pain in the ***!
