It also just seems like the token 'Jalopink' car.

I think you need a bright Orange one for the fleet :D

I found a large design resemblance to the Maserati Gran Turismo tail lights. The civic front end is unmistakable.

]]> <![CDATA[Adamk24 commented on Speedfactory Cars Blows SRT8 Challenger, Sees 495 Rear-Wheel HP]]> 20% is now commonly accepted for RWD cars? Last I checked Ford used 16% for the Mustang and Nissan quoted 15% for the 350Z. 20-22% sounds more like AWD territory to me....

]]> <![CDATA[Adamk24 commented on Project Car Hell: R33 Skyline GT-R or Aston Martin Lagonda?]]> R33 skylines were rated at 286 hp not 250. At least officially, its generally agreed they output more like 310-320 hp, but were underrated from the factory.

Not like any of this matters as $800 in exhaust parts and a boost controller can drastically change these figures.

]]> <![CDATA[Adamk24 commented on Honda Ignores Civic SI Owners' Complaints About Faulty Transmissions]]> Oh yeah, check out Road and Tracks comments:
[www.roadandtrack.com]

Quote" possibly due to synchronizer wear or worn bushings, the 2-3 shift became less precise, resulting in a missed shift should the action be too quick or lack deliberateness. Occasionally, even when shifting slowly and with utmost concentration, we ran into binding resistance going into 3rd, which would kick the gear-shift lever back to neutral if the clutch was let out a moment too soon."

]]> <![CDATA[Adamk24 commented on Honda Ignores Civic SI Owners' Complaints About Faulty Transmissions]]> This issue has been around on ALL K-series 6 speed trannies for a long time. Go to any of the RSX forums ( [www.clubrsx.com] ) and ask there, or just watch the Hot Version American Touge 2 that featured an RSX-S that kept disengauging third on Tsuchia.

The SI is definately the worst offender but Honda has been trying to sweep this one under the rug for a long time now. BUT HERE IS THE BEST PART! Read Car and Drivers review on their long term SI:
[www.edmunds.com]

Quote "Near the 10,000-mile mark we noticed the shift lever became reluctant to find 3rd gear during the upshift from 2nd. The issue was even more pronounced when the car was cold..." "So we were disappointed to learn that its technicians "could not repeat the issue," but even more so when we learned this was the first they'd heard of it. Minimal research on our part found Civic Si owner forums on CarSpace and other Internet sites that described this same problem, assuring us we weren't alone.

Various tips were available online at the time offering potential fixes, but none of them were approved by Honda. Our intentions to sell the car after the test dictated that we keep it in stock condition and wait for Honda to issue a service bulletin. It didn't happen during our ownership, so we taught ourselves to make an extra effort to engage 3rd gear."

Dont get me wrong, honda makes a great car, I've owned 2 myself, but they really should have resolved this issue a long time ago.

Just trying to figure out how many kinds of injured that guy would be after being shoved into a vipers interior at 30 mph. Getting well seated is hard enough when stationary, I can only imagine he has a seat bolster sufficiently implanted in his backside.
