New to site, not new to hondas!

Post by DaveHutch »

Hello everybody, i was referred by Dabeastwthn... i Know him from stlmustangs.
I am buying another Honda as i used to have one long ago. I am really just looking for a nice reliable daily, but i would not mind making it a bit fast/making it look good in the mean time. I will be driving it in the winter when i cant drive my Cobra.

I am almost 22, in the national Gaurd and work in real estate. I have an ecommerce business i am trying to start and i love to work out. I train on the side when im not busy. I also take classes online through Phoenix Arizona.

if you want to know anything else just ask.
i hope i can make some friends here!

well to be honest no. haha my day usually starts early. i workout, go to work, i can do my studies at work though, so that helps. I do however spend alot of time with my girlfriend who is going to study abroad in a few months, so i will have more free time to build my personal business, and continue training.
I would like to compete in a triathalon in about 3 years....

I would join, its a great site....if your not REALLY into mustangs i would stay away from SVTperformance though. there seems to be alot of DRAMA and needless bull on there.

i just like cars as a hobby. I love my cobra and maybe thinking about getting a Z06.

what do you have planned eh?

Just a simple 351 with an AOD(t5 shifter position would suck). I don't know if I am going back to the bottle or maybe something that involves a snail.

haha right on.

im not sure if i am going twin screw or Turbo on the cobra this winter....but i for sure am buying Dabeastwthns Red honda soon. I have a jetta now but we may be trading.

i want to either put a small turbo on the honda, or im interested in a honda S200 0 motor swap.

thats kind of why im here. Can you even do that? i know virtually nothing about hondas anymore.
I have been too buried in the modular motors. :love:

i traded my rx7 vert for it even up. the idiot who had it had the safc on the wrong setting so it was running retarded. so i fixed that. swpped a good spec stge 3 clutch in it, big t-28 turbo, front mount, kept the hks bov on it, and redid the interior because that silver looked tacky, all and all i had maybe 3k in it, sold it to a 17 yr old for 5k finished, and he blew it up 3 weeks later....stupid ricers
