Well where do I start? I was a member here WAY back in '02-'04 or so. Dunno what happened to my old account, but it was the same SN that I have now…ANYWAYS. I used to own a '91 RS that started as a DD, and ended up as a track car. I remember the old So. Cali G2IC meets with dudes like J, Schu, Rexwun, KB8, DAKine, etc…the OG’s.
After selling the RS, I moved on to motorcycles, and then on to a RSX-S…but I’m finally back! I moved out to Arizona, bought a house, started a family…and FINALLY got myself another little project/toy car (1992 GSR).
Pics of my old RS:
Pics of the new project:
Original B17A, 140K, original YS1, mint interior. The exterior is pretty bad, crappy paint and a 90-91 front end from a crash in 2003. Car is still clean title though.
Get the correct front end on it, lower it, find some era-correct wheels (most likely RNR’s), and eventually respray the entire car correctly. The current paint LOOKS good in pics, but up close there are a shit ton of runs, drips, orange peel, etc.
Then I’d like to show the engine a bit of love…new OEM black VC, Comptech air box (if I can find one), ITR 4-1 header with OEM heat shields, ITR intake manifold, and either an old HKS or Greddy exhaust…and a nice, MILD engine bay tuck.
Nothing over the top, nothing outrageous. Just a clean, solid DD.
Nah. The RS was sold to some guys in North Dakota. They flew out to Cali and drove it back…100% gutted, only two front seats and a dash. Trunk was filled with a complete B16A swap and slicks, and didn’t have HX’s on it at the time. I sold it on fat 5’s.
welcome back man, we have the same story just opposite coasts…same time frame, lost acct, even same milano red db2 as new project lol weird. anyways clean ride and can’t wait to see what you do with it
