Whats up everyone name is Steven and holding it down in Independence, Iowa. Just moved out here about a month ago from San Bernardino, California. Heard about this site from a member here (jayscoupe) (thanks for the 411)

My whip: I have a ej6 with a JDM GSR swap, GSR tranny packed with OEM LSD, many up grades on the car (alot of SiR and JDM parts along with alot of OEM upgrades) No pics of the way it looks right now but soon will get them taken and posted. Changed the look before I desided to bring it out here.

Looking forward to meeting up with some of you peeps down that way. If you all want to contact me my AIM SN: Bluedevil1142ek and my yahoo msger: steven_parshall

Been in search for part shops and tuner shops. Have not found anything out here. But I know there has to be a few that I can get the parts I am in search for. So someone please help me out. lol

Later guys and thanks for the invite in advance.

Looks good besides the stickers. welcome to the site.

thanks for all the welcomes everyone. car right now is stored away and will not be brought back out till mid summer. Lisence issues with the state of california is preventing me from driving it. WACK

but to the quote... are you refering to the stickers in the rear window on the d/s? Cause the ones on the hood are not stickers they are actually magnets that are offered in Japan. The round one is a JDM handicap badge (very rare to get your hands on) and the tear drop one is what they call an Old Driver badge. Since in the import game I am considered old school I elected to place that one on. They are placed just like they need to be placed as if the car was driving in japan. one on the front hood on the d/s and one in the rear window on the p/s. Of course I would not expect american muscle heads to be all into these kinds of things, just trying to explain what they are and what they are for.

But I have down sized the sticker ammount by quite a bit. lol. rear window on d/s had at one time a full bar. but no need for alot of those stickers anymore.

But still thanks for the welcome.

I am gonna guess your the guy there at the dealership that i have talked to the last 2 times i was there. well i was there the other day to get a part i ordered but was on a time constrant to get other things done. got the wrong part but thats alright it will do for now. just cosmetic shit. having hella time finding the parts i need out here. but what can you expect for the middle of no where iowa. lol.

but yeah thanks for the props on the ride. still needs alot of work though. been raining way too much to get it out and start to get it prepped for paint. been thinking about pulling it completely apart and skip this season but not for sure. Good thing is I now reside out here in Waterloo and not out in that small ass town of Independence. Shit was hella boring out there.

Actually had it out the other day and found a lil run with a civic hatch (blue in color) but he desided he didnt wanna go heads up when i pulled up on him. so he backed off and tryed to a flyby. lmao. all he saw was a rear mirror of H symbol. Damn traffic out here though got in the way of me passing. But his was pretty fast. figured b16 or LS swap. but it was a fun run. alot better than i have found out here in awhile. but yeah will try to get out more when this damn rain stops.

i definatly like the red valve cover a lot more...

The bottom one is a completly different motor. The motor with the Red valve cover is a GSR , and the Motor with the Green valve cover is a B20 :)

Ahd By the way,steve-o.. Your On honda-tech.com Arnt you? I think I seen you post something about moving from cali to Iowa. If not.. 8)
