This!!! Count me the Fuck out....that’s for sure. 

Honda is right. It is the most absurd thing ever to put a manual in an EV. I’m saying this as a manual transmission crazy person (damn right the name checks out). As someone who understands why manual transmissions or even transmissions in general were invented, the logic is legitimately backwards.

It’s not the rotating assembly that needs help holding 400hp, its the 83mm bored open decked block with a coolant slit between cylinders. This causes the cylinder to crack and provides a passageway between the water-jacket and the combustion chamber. The two most common fixes are shimming said coolant slits or finding…

Yeah that color combo is arguably the most sought after. Especially in manual. Some might argue the flash green and atacama. Both combos are of similar unicorn status.

I’ll through my daily in there. Modded to stage 3, pushing ~400hp

That sucker looks hungry. 

An Icon. I worked for a company who’s owner had one and he was nice enough to let me drive it. I was fucking 20 years old (Not sure what he was thinking but I’m glad he had that lapse of judgment) and my only fast car for the time experience was my fox body 5.0. Sure it didn’t have the down low torque I was used to…

The important boxes are checked with this one. It will be an engaging, fun, reliable and safe car to drive. That’s all that’s important.

Must have shipped a bunch of the Lightnings up to Canada recently because I hadn’t seen one on the road until last Sunday. Then on said Sunday, I saw 3 of them suckers. They look a bit weird from behind to me not sporting the old 8.8 stick axle.

Damn, you got to admit, this thing is super cool. Is it a good value??? Fuck no. But this thing isn’t for people looking for good value, this thing is for people with “fuck you” money. 

The reality is, life in the upper echelon of pretty much every elite competitive thing in todays world, is dog eat dog and survival of the fittest. Those that make it will be fine with the system because they were able to take the abuse. No one who matters will lobby for anything to get easier after they have already…

Waiting for the V8 purists to enter the chat

Someone is about to get paaaaaid! 

Oil. 

You weren’t around during the Fox platform years were you? If you can tie the S650 roots to the S550 , I can just as easily compare the Fox to the 95-SN/New Edge and if I do that, you know how old that platform was??? Wait for it...25. Yeah - 1979-2004.

So a civic, from the factory, now comes with a square set up of 265 section width tires.....

Aaaagreed! They all be like 

Keep it retro but with a twist. You see in 05 they went back to 65 cause reasons. Now in 22 (17 years later...holy fuck I might be getting old) if you keep with a look back in time 40 years for inspiration theme you get 82. That means a retro of the Fox body.

Right?

If this isn’t a prime opportunity for a wagon variant, I don’t know what is.
