HONDA LOVERS GO HERE TO LEARN HOW TO MAKE YOUR HONDA GO FAST...
MAKE MY HONDA GO FAST

*****  JUSTICE HAS FINALLY BEEN SERVED, BUT NOT EXACTALLY LIKE I HAD HOPED. IT APPEARS THAT SOME OTHER DOPE WILL END UP WITH THIS CAR, BECAUSE CHRYSLER HAS AGREED TO BUY THIS CAR BACK FROM ME. SINCE CHRYSLER AGREED WITH MY LAWYER TO BUY THIS CAR BACK BECAUSE THIS CAR HAD MAJOR PROBLEMS, DOSEN'T MEAN THAT THEY EVER ADMITTED THAT IT WAS A LEMON, SO EVERYBODY BEWARE. JUST IN CASE SOMEONE IN MY AREA MAY BE READING THIS, THE VIN # IS AS FOLLOWS: 2D4GZ58295H654637. THIS CAR IS ALSO A CELEBRITY AT THE LOCAL AUTO DEALER. I WISH THAT I COULD LEAVE A NOTE FOR ANY FUTURE BUYER, BUT I AM AFRAID THAT IT WOULD BE USELESS. I AM SURE THAT THEY WILL GO THROUGH THIS THING WITH A FINE TOOTHED COMB TO ENSURE THAT THIS THING LOOKS "PERFECT" FOR THE NEXT SUCKER...

>>>>>>>>>>>>I HAVE LOST MY FIRST RACE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
2002 Z28 CAMARO, AND LET ME TELL YOU, THIS CAR WAS STOUT. THIS GUY WAS A GOOD RACER. I SAW HIM AHEAD OF ME, SO I CAUGHT UP WITH HIM. HE NODDED AT ME, I NODDED BACK, WE LINED UP THEN TOOK OFF. IT WAS BROAD DAYLIGHT (NOT NORMAL FOR ME), HE PULLED AHEAD OF ME, AND WHEN WE CAME UP ON SOME TRAFFIC WE BOTH ENDED THE RACE RIGHT THEN. I CAUGHT UP WITH HIM, HE GAVE A FRIENDLY WAVE, I GAVE HIM A THUMBS UP, THEN WE WENT ABOUT OUR BUSINESS. THAT WAS A GOOD EXPERIENCE. IF ONLY EVERYBODY SHOWED THAT KIND OF RESPECT...

I WILL BE SELLING MY INTAKE PRETTY SOON, POSSIBLY ON EBAY, THE HID'S I AM KEEPING FOR MY SILVERADO, EXHAUST IS ALREADY SOLD. THIS IS A FUN CAR TO DRIVE, IT IS JUST TOO MUCH TROUBLE TO MAINTAIN, ESPECIALLY FOR THE PRICE THAT I PAID FOR IT. THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE VOTES, HITS, AND GUESTBOOK COMMENTS, AND SORRY TO ALL OF THE HONDAS THAT I BULLIED ON THE ROAD :). I HAVE REPAIRED MY FIERO TO DRIVE FOR NOW, I AM ALSO BUYING A MUSTANG FOR MY WIFE, AND WILL BE DRIVING AND CUSTOMIZING MY Z-71 SILVERADO...

Mods:

> HID conversion
> Borla exhaust
> K&N racing intake
> XM Radio
> PS2 w/portable DVD player and FM modulator for now...
> Tinted Windows

This is my new ride. It is an AWD R/T. I have now decided that it is time to customize this car. For those of you who have kept up with my HID delimma (I can't spell), it is now solved after weeks of pondering (or just being lazy, and finally getting around to it). The problem was my car has the Convience Group II and it has an option for auto headlights (whitch run through the computer), and the computer would turn off the power to the headlights when it detected anything other than a regular bulb, but only when the engine was running. I have ran a couple of relays, and done some hard wiring (whitch I really didn't want to do), and now they work just fine. The only downfall is that the low beams (HID's) turn on with the park lights, but since the fog lights do too, I don't really care.

Here are low beams and high beams from inside the car (with it running, lol.)

gilli2us's 2005 Dodge MagnumXM install. Removed ash tray, made a bracket and tapped it for machine screws. Got some shipping foam from work to fill the void. The cool thing about this install I never even planned. I used the power outlet in the ash tray, and just pushed it behind the foam, and whenever the radio has power, the XM reciever has power. That worked out really good.

I was getting ready to lower it (static), but I am not sure of anyone that makes coils for the AWD's. So when I find some, then that will probably be about the only exterior mod that anyone will notice, the rest will be mainly for performance. I will probably get a programmer and a TBI spacer before I lower anyways, so I can wait. I will be updating my polls from time to time whenever I am torn on ordering a new part (OMG, decisions, decisions) or just curious about everybodys opinion on something. So feel free to give your input.

I sent my K&N Typhoon Intake back because I found another K&N intake that I like better. I have installed it and it is awsome. 21.09 hp increase at the wheels, and an awsome sound through the exhaust. It sounds like it will pull any cat, bird, small dog, ect. through the grille so keep your pets inside...lol... Also, I have installed a Borla Cat-Back system to help her breathe better.
