its sure ugly as hell and rice of the year but it has some scoot to it..

Unless he painted it to look like it, or got the right valve-cover, his claim of an F20B motor seems feasible. The F20B is a de-stroked version of the H22A that revs higher and has a higher output at 220HP. It, however, has NOTHING to do with the F20C that is in the S2000, like he claims, except for the similar name.

ive seen hoods for imports, AND DOMESTICS that have gauges on the hood like that... seems reasonable, no drilling holes in your interior to run wires to places under the hood for oil temp and that kinda stuff...

Notice the plastic on the seats?

WTF? Does he still wet the bed or something???

Examples like this just hurts Honda owners even worse.....

.....and they wonder why people make fun of them!

(I realize not all Hondas are alike, but I've seen too many not to generalize)

yea, they look good on old cars, but this is an import.

hmm

[SR20DETpower]

they would mainly use a fuel pressure gauge up there so that way you don't have to run a line with fuel in it into the cockpit, also why its considered an old thing is they used big cowl hoods like that for their carbs and the gauges would be in better line of sight with the outside instead of looking down to read them....

I would almost want that car so no matter what else I ever bought, it would look fantastic next to that monstrosity.

[DeViL]

2 bids and at $10,000?!?!? What is going on here?

[2strokebloke]

metallic dysentery green? - you can bet that wasn't a factory option.

I really really do not appreciate every one of you making fun of my car.... I bet none of you have ever thought of putting an Old School scoop on a new car. As far as it not being on in ONE picture, that is because i took the picture before i installed it and it was a good picture. It IS functional because the tubbing runs down the left side of the hood to the intake and is therefore unseeable and the flaps hood to the throttle cable that runs to the TB. The plastic protects the seats from getting messed up by my friends...the ZEX NOS means a ZEX Nitrous Oxide System...As far as the ront bumper...I though it would look alot better once i got it installed but it is easily changeable. Yall are such dumb ass haters...wait...5 BIDS!!!!!...omg..those ppl r dumb asses

I knew sooner-or-later you'd show-up to the party...

You have bigger cojonés than I ever will, man. I admit that. One, for actually admitting to the world that you built (ruined?) that car, and two, for being brave enough to be seen in that...thing...
