Default ElPaisitas_Sti Journal """ Stolen CAR" Please keep an eye out

Hello everyone. My name is Ricardo and I live in Margate, FL. I had an Turbo LS Integra that was stolen in 2006. Since then, I've decided not to own a Honda car in my life. I went about 2 without one of the car of my dreams, the STI. I purchased my car from the dealer on Oct of 2007, and I loved it since the beginning. The car was stock and in great shape. Only major thing was the paint, but I am sure we all have the same issue. About a month later, I found out about Velocity Factor in Boca, and decided to pay them a visit. I bought the Accessport from them and went Stage 1. Then for my X-mass present, I got my down pipe and exhaust with a little help of my girlfriend. Stage 2 was amazing and I loved the sound of the exhaust.

I started having problems with my clutch, so I went again to Velocity Factor and got the Exedy Stage 1 Clutch. Breaking in the clutch was fun, but at the same time frustrating, because it was during the nice cold weather. So I did not have time to get it to the track. I just purchased a set of BC Racing coilovers, Gimmick short shifter, and a turbo blanket. I will post some pictures once I have received the parts

.:. THE MOD LIST .:.

  • Cobb AccessPort online PDX tuned

.:. Gimmick Short Shifter Install .:.
I finally got the change to install my short shifter from Gimmick. It was a really easy task to do, and it feels so much better than the stock piece. I am waiting for my coil overs to arrive, so I can install them. Hopefully by next week Saturday, I should be enjoying my new suspension.
