....is finally being released

Installed a short shifter in the festiva this weekend, one for a 88-91 civic.....ebay special:

49cents + $7.99 shipping :)

It is a complete nite and day difference.

This little box is fun to mess around with. Every mod is either free or under $20.

I'm putting the finishing touches on my new grill tomorrow night.

I'll post pics of the beast when the grill is on.

The Fastiva claimed it's first victim tonight!!!

Driving back form my parts car with the car loaded up with 300LBS of motor parts.....some dude in a Kia Sophia with a fart can revs at me as i pass him then does a ricer flyby.....so just for the hell of it, i drop to third creap up next to him and floor it. I cut the bottom of the airbox out so the intake is loud as balls. Anyway, i was laughing my ass off, it was funny as hell messing with someone in an over-loaded festiva. Wish i would have had my SVT, i could have really given him a run...

I have to tell you, after being so anti-rice in my SVT, it's kinda fun being "that guy" every once in a while. It's just my kind of humor i guess. Kyle can attest to some of the crap we've pulled on people.

I was going to say no racing stories, but then I realized, you guys can't surpass the speed limit in those cars, so I guess you're okay! I joke, I joke! http://www.contour.org/ceg-vb/images/icons/icon10.gif

.... I should know, in road design, I used 2 cars for traffic simulation, a big rig and a "fastiva"
