i cant log onto my photobucket account for some reason to post some pics. its not my beater, its just my other car. i treat it with the same amount of love and respect as my 30000 dollar sti

. its a 93 prelude with a jdm h22 swap, chipped p13 ecu from phearable tuning, intake, alphawerks exhaust, test pipe, obx header (its not a bad header for the money, better then dc sports) stage 2 clutch, 8 pound flywheel, amazing system, jdm 1 piece black headlights, and a few other things im sure im forgetting.

Use Tinypic.com to post pics!

I have a 1986 Chevy Camaro, 5.0L V-8, carb'ed, auto trans with Corvette internals.....autometer gauges up the wazooo..plus tons of other mods that are too much to list.....it was my first car and the car I have owned since I was able to drive. I have plans for it to get a 383 Stroker motor that will be in the upwards of 500whp and a T56 Trans (Z06 Tranny), and 3.73 rear gears. Its my baby before the STi and I will die with it...along with my STi and prob a bunch of other cars

Here is the Camaro....and the STi...this was when the STi was basically stock...well prob just had a radiator shroud and a perrin crank pulley....ahhaha thats all I could afford a month at the time...wow!

Here's my 96 Civic DX with 108k miles on it w/ my STi. It's the only picture I have, but you get the idea

I've been very lucky, but it has not given me any problems other than the occassional "neverending lag"
