I was just bored and thought I would post some pics that I took this last year while the weather was nice.

(Above) Yes- you are seeing correctly. I spanked a new Civic Si by a full second at the drag strip. He was a punk and I knew I would win because his is bone stock. People shouldn't talk trash just because they own a Honda.

I like it, but more pictures would do it great justice.

FYI, I lived in Coer D Alene for about 6 years & loved it save for the snow! Walking distance to the lake, etc. I bought the 00' 3G a few months before i left from the dealer in Spokane!
There were no car shows or anything else at the time I was there! Ok thats enough!!!

Nice car! What was your 1/4 mile time?

Your car is gorgeous, very nice drop. I always shyed away from wheels with that many spokes but they look good on your car. This is why I love Spyders. I can't wait for the summer months!

Yep as I said, it looks pretty good to me.

I would love to remove the front plate, but here in southern Idaho, the cops are real dicks about not having a front plate-it can't just be on your dash.

I have thought about painting my calipers. Either silver or red. I will try to take some pics of the interior when the weather clears up a bit because I would like some input on what direction to go with it too. I really want to get some pedals. I had ractive pedals on a long time ago but those things were friggin huge and looked dorky. I bought some Sparco pedals but they didnt fit. When money gets better I may pick up some from SCCustoms

I have thought about getting the WW kit, but the roads are really bad here and considering the hell that I have put the front end through out here, I would be reluctant to get any kind of body/lip kit for it.
