Got some pics back from the TYC photography shoot. I should have all of them by tomorrow. I'll update.

I sent a brief to Honda Tuning and Import Tuner, with minor interest from Import Tuner, but it looks like it fell off. Whateverz.

I think it needs a bigger sticker on the windshield.

Man, I lower/raise my shit every week. This week I jacked it up for the slicks/race day (that got cancelled), and then the other day I lowered it while it was warming it up to drive again. I've had this issue with the right/front tire being grabbed by the fender lip, tearing up my tire/being too low. I rolled that shit by hand, and it still keeps grabbing on 4th gear pulls, which is murder compared to regular torque steer, so it sits as it sits at any given time.

Looks good, ive always like the driving pics where it looks like its standing still but the ground/background is blurred.

Wish i could afford 5k worth of camera equipment

maybe its me, but i think that sticker would look WAY better if it was the same color as the paint across the top of the windshield where you have it blacked

shit's clean for sho tho

ssssssssswwwweeet picsss mannnnn

salesmonkey · « **Reply #8 on:** October 28, 2009, 02:06:04 AM »

that is a pretty big sticker but i like how its black and kinda stealthy. it also goes with your top sun tint thing.

gd has been slow and shitty these days. sorta the reason ive been actually posting lately.

Car looks great those are some very nice quality photos.Why did you convert it to shit hand drive though?Not hating because its JDM, but RHD sucks to drive i know we have hundreds where i live.None the less shit looks to clean to be here

corey88 · « **Reply #10 on:** October 28, 2009, 02:14:17 AM »

damn that looks nice! wish i had the time to make my hatch look that clean $:-\$

Three main reasons I'd reject it:
1.) Head lights
2.) Over sized rims
3.) You chose the most popular chassis

if all this was in an insight, or even a first or second gen civic, you'd be in there and easily sponsored.

DO WANT

oh and you can find d40's on cl for $300 so why would you need $5k worth of camera equipment.
a good photographer can take good pics with any camera. a shitty photographer can't take good pics with a $5k camera.

cool pics of the shuttle, i think it's mag worthy. if that is what you are going for.

ive seen shots with a $5k camera that totally sucked, photographer thought it was tits. its like the hulksters kid having everything to go fast but couldnt drive the car.

It didn't really strike me that RHD was something I wanted, but when I found a front clip for $400, and knew I had a welder, I figured I'd do it. I won't be doing another one just because it takes so long, and as stupid as it sounds, the kids who talk shit about RHD being worthless still show interest after it's done. The old people flip shit too, and it did end up being one of the things that makes the car stand out most.

No, there's nothing groundbreaking about the car as far as hondas go, but when's the last time you saw groundbreaking shit in a magazine? It is what it is, and it'll constantly need something done to it, but I've gotten this far, and I figured it'd be an oppertunity to have a car in a magazine. The look of the car and the story it has to tell I thought they'd be interested in, but that's all over with now. I can always look back on the company shoutouts bambi put down in Honda Tuning, and a picture of my son taking a shit in D Sport.

That's the problem - you need more name-brand crap on it to appeal to the main readers - kids/hispanic ppl. When was the last time you saw a clean car in almost any current magazine?

I still remember the old stuff. 700HP SC300 with a HMT kit. "11's for 11k" (na, oem-only parts+shell). 390whp 10-sec brown Omni.

On the very top tip of the (new) passenger front tower there's a chip, but I believe it was built up too high and the hood is tagging it. No other cracks/issues.
