Ex-honda owner...

What's up? My name is Eric - I used to own a 5th gen Accord (95) - had about $4500 invested into it, then hydrolocked it 2 octobers ago. If I had a pic, I'd post it, buuuuut I don't.

After I hydrolocked it, I bought a 2006 Scion tC, totalled that a year and a half later, then bought an 07 tC and turbo'd it (license plate says 2dot4). That's what I'm driving now. I'm on STL Scikotics (www.scikotics.com), and I see you guys all over the place, so I figured I'd stop by and see whats up.

I saw a member up at the Wentzville autozone tonight (black primer civic with wicked stickers decal on the rear window, and stlhondas.com on the passenger corner of the windshield) - nice civic - I like it.

Anyway - just wanted to stop by and say Hi.

I don't have any recent shots of the turbo or of my car with tint lol. I have old shots of the turbo before I made small adjustments and painted everything black - I just gotta find em.

I'll post em as soon as possible.

was the white one pretty much stock on the outside and have STL Scion decals? if so, that was Rozz - me and him don't get along too well because he puts himself and his knowledge on a pedestal, and thumbs his nose up at everyone else.

Mine is Blue - pretty stock exterior - I have a custom grille that I made, and custom de-chromed headlights. I spend all my money on performance. I already like how the car looks - I want to make it faster lol.
