Definitely a mean Honda! It screams!

Mine was a 1994 Camaro Z-28 completely modified by Callaway Cars. I was their only customer who had their 383 SN-450 engine that was developed for Corvettes. I had pretty much their entire catalog installed. I was there so often, Reeves would offer me coffee and small talk. LOL!

At least your taste wasn't "ricer" .. nice Honda.

I've always had mustangs, but I have a soft spot for mitsu also. Ive had 5 1st Gen dsm's and a 92 vr4 3000gt.

I'll try to find my old pics of them.

Thanks, I always like the simple clean look. I used to have a 90 talon TSI AWD Turbo, fun car but just not reliable.

I've had a bunch, this is what I traded in on my 12' (99 Cobra):

This is what I had before my first Mustang (89 LX) years ago. Still got it though.

Is your '70 Dart a Swinger? I used to own a '71 Duster 340. "Lightly" modded to embarrass the local Vettes. I miss that car. I remember many a time driving home from my 6PM - 6AM job with the headers uncorked. Sweetest music I could ever want to listen to. ;-)

I loved it, still have her but shes never driven since i have the sonata to daily. I was SO SO close to getting the 07 SI that you have and doing basically exactly the same thing. All my friends at the time were die hard JDM fans with 5/6/700 hp subbies and evos. They were on my nuts about buying a v6 mustang over the 07 si lol

The si was fun but it was maxed on that setup. I ran 12.81 and the stang does that stock so it's a much better platform to build off of IMO.

After 10 years of ownership, sold the L for the 2011 Mustang GT. Miss it dearly.

Owned this one many, many moons ago CobraBob. It was a 1970 Duster 340.
I had swapped out the original grille for the 71 version. Like you, a lot of good memories with that car.

92 Taurus SHO
97 SVT Cobra coupe
98 C5 Corvette Targa

for the OP, what's up with bouncing off the rpm governor in 1st and 2nd gear when your getting on it?
