Nothing outrageous, 16x7.5" Borbet's with a nice lip on em, cold air intake, chip. If I really wanted to go crazy I'd throw on a new head + cams, but thats a bit much atm. First I gotta get it running the way I want, which means new valves, lifter's etc. I have a box of brand new gaskets from the guy that sold the car to me.

Oh, and another thing Honda's are missing is RWD. Nothing beats it.

EDIT: Oh, and a LSD would be nice too :P

Haha, be careful there Mustang man. Those things put out a good amount of torque which can throw your rear end out at inopportune moments. :icon30:

the Honda S2000 and NSX are rwd... The new Civic Si comes with an LSD, as well as some other cars in the previous years.

The NSX was one awesome car, I still can't imagine why they stopped making them. And I didn't know the S2000 was RWD, good to know I suppose. In any case, most ricers don't drive S2000's, too bad for them.

oh man i know it... the rear has unexpectedly come loose a couple times, but that was mostly due to hydroplaning.

Sadly, I know some ricers who drive an S2000 at my school :(

Seriously though, most ricers are only trying to be as good as this...

It's kinda ugly, but it's everything those ricers wish they could be.

Hmph. could have sworn they were also AWD. See the funny thing here is that I admit when I'm wrong, whereas ToxicTard doesn't, and continues to be a fucking idiot. And at least I was right about him being a colossal twat.
