I'm just curious, what does everybodies screen-name mean? Some are self explanatory, others you just can't figure out, I'll start with myself
Integra= car I like
818= it's my area code (phone),alot of people around here put 818 after thier screenname, it just lets people know where you're from in chatrooms and stuff, but I don't go to chatrooms anymore, just forums :D

hiver comes from a computer game in 1995 called "The Hive". It was one of the supposedly "breakthrough" game in '95 and I was testing out my (then) very fast Pentium 120 :D
Dont know how I added the "r", it just stuck there through the years :rolleyes:
77 is my birth year of course...

Well, It doesn't take a genius to work out the first part (thug) and the _9_6 originally was gonna be 96, but somebody on Hotmail already had thug96 so I improvised and it kinda stuck....
BTW, 96= 1996, the year that 2pac was shot...

Mine's not to difficult to decipher.
ZoomZoomMX-5: Zoom zoom, from the Mazda ads in the US showing the kid whispering "Zoom zoom", and MX-5 is what the Miata is called in Mazda's alphanumeric system, and in Japan. I currently own 2 Mazdas-a 1988 929 sedan (aka "The Invisicar") and a 1996 Miata, and I've previously owned a B2200 SE5 and an RX-4. 4 of the 10 cars I've owned have been Mazdas.

My black `94 Firehawk was number 312 of 500. It was the fastest car I ever owned. The builder of the engine I put in that thing said it should be just over 600Hp!! I imagine he wasnt too far off. It hit 118 mph in the quarter (125mph with the g-tech pro) with lots of wheelspin and me granny shifting to keep it from over revving. I wish I wouldnt have sold it. :( :(

Don't forget what motivated you to sell it!
I don't have a supercharger on my Camaro but am finding the new HUGE cam and valvetrain to be a little hard to live with. It's pumping 545 hp but I have hardly any power brakes (even with a vacuum pump), a VERY choppy idle (6" vacuum at idle), I've had to adjust the lash once a month, forget driving in anything but perfect weather, and the daily-driver aspect of my car is gone! Yet, with all the headaches it's only about 1 second faster around Road Atlanta!! I think I'll switch back to the GM HOT cam so I can enjoy my car again! I can live quite happily with "just" 460 horses....
