i will own a sho, but for now i will have to make do with this forum. by summer/fall im looking to get a 1gen or maybe a 2gen mtx. iv always had a soft spot for 1gen especially with a police grille.

iv been in the honda scene for the past ten years piecing together a civic that im really proud of, since im almost done with it i need to start something new/different. after about a year of pondering iv come to the conclusion that I NEED A SHO.

i look forward to input, discussing, arguing, and being flamed...lol... but hey, its all for the love of sho's.

thanks guys

in short its a 99 civic si (em1) thats pretty much set up for circuit and autox. it has a mildly camed USDM integra type r motor (b18c5) tuned on hondata. to tell you the truth i havent ran it in the 1/4 but im pretty sure its like a low 15-high 14 car. i havent even raced it that much in the past couple of years, iv just been trying to keep it clean. taking it to car shows/meets, you know, just taking it easy.

well at least you're an honest honda head and not one of those " my civic smoked a mustang gt yesterday!!!" people. hope you get one soon - they are awesome- just got one myself. With what you have done to the civic - and if it's in good shape- you should be able to sell your car for a price that can get you a decent sho. WELCOME!!!

thanks guys

yeah, i dont even have a sho yet and all i do all day is imagine having one. when i comes to sho's i pretty much know the basics. when it comes to owning one i feel that im prepared to take on the challenge. im a mechanic at a repair shop that specializes in japanese cars so atleast i have the skill and tools. all i know is thats it cant be worse that owning a DSM...lol... i dont think theres anything worse than that. :frantic:

I own a Honda and love them.

A well maintaned SH0 in stock form is very comfortable, quick and quite good on gas , high 20' low 30's on highway.

Handling mods really make a difference on this car.

It's a quick car that is cheap to insure.

It's also a great chick repellent.

Welcome to the site it's a great place to learn and get help on your car and make lifetime friendships.

So it attracts *** people?

On a side note , the SHO is also a great ego killer.

You can actually lose with-in 1/2 car and still in the end come out a winner!!!! WTF A taurus?!?!? :rofl:

That might all come to an end somewhat when people start hearing abotu the new sho and everyone knows what the old sho is and not to mess with it:naughty:
