Default ADDICTED + my introduction

HI my name is Rafayel, and I'm addicted to the GSR ( crowd>> "hi Rafayel")

Every day when my dad gets home from work with my GSR, I take the keys, and go out for a drive for about an hour and 10 minutes, JUST FOR FUN.

My mom crashed her car, so my mom drives my dads car, and my dad drives my GSR since I don't need it as much as he does, so that explains why he's driving my GSR. I'm 17 by the way.

When he gets home, about 10 minutes later I take the car out and drive it around, I don't drivearound on the main/big streets yet, I just drive in the residential area.

Why the heck would I have fun driving for an hour a day??? I LOVE HEAL-TOE-DOWNSHIFTING . Now remember, I"m 17 and I don't even drive the car to anywhere just around my neibhorhood.

Honestly, I'm afraid to speed, not afraid OF speed, afraid TO speed. I'm afraid of getting caught and getting the consequenses of a ticket. So I don't drive fast.

After 8 hours of school, theres nothin more fun and relaxing than driving. I do it for the pure pleasure. As of latley, driving the GSR is the only thing that makes me happy, nothing else in the world, exept for my mom, and my dad for teaching me everything about the b18c5 and driving/racing .

So there's my introduction, I hope to see you guys around, and if anyone here is from the AF forum, I'm integra818, you might already know me, hope to see ya around

I have a b18c1, but my dad/bro/ family friend and I built a b18c for roadracing, I learned quite alot that I did'nt know before. Not newbie stuff though.

Personally, I think the b18c jdm type r motor is the best b-series motor ever made. I don't care if an LS shortblock has 38 more cubic centimeters, the LS block was'nt built for racing, the type R WAS. It's the perfect motor, and honestly, in roadracing you don't neven need any mods on that engine to go faster.

The LS shortblcok will probably have oil pickup problems also if the oil line is'nt changed, whcih can lead to some problems also (KABOOM!).

My car is a GSR, but I'm tryin to get the body to look like a GS as much possible. I even thought aboout putting the brake light in the rear window.

I know I kinda babble too much, but I'm just happy to fin a good forum about the GSR

yeah the only tell tale sign is the brake light in the rear hatch
you can even put on black side moldings to make it look like a older rs model, depending on the year of yoru car

but welcome aboard and hope you have a good time

I just shaved my VTEC badge and the G 2 GS-R badge that I had stuck on there. Totally stealth GSR Sedan. I remember the first time I hit the secondaries in 3rd gear, made my hair stand on end. Be careful out there, hey, how does a 17 year old have the same car as me.

My dad works his ass off so I can have a good time bieng youth, and I love him very much for what he's doing. I don't abuse the car, owning the GSR is not a right, it's a privelage. At least for me it is, because I did'nt pay for it.

I was talkin to my dad today about putting the GSR wing I have in the garage. I asked him if it was functional and he said it probably is'nt. If it is, I'll put the GSR wing on, if I find out it's there only for looks...no wing. I'm gonna take off my "doch VTEC" badge but I'm too much of a lazy ass .

I have no fear about the newbie haters, I may be new to this forum but I've been on another forum for about 5 months and I know how to deal with people. Deal with people = been in flame-wars for expressing my honest opinion about the viper :fawk:
