So... It's been almost 6-7 years?

And since James replied to his Lego tower thread, I got the e-mail notification and B told me to stick around so here I am! I haven't had a Honda in that time. But have a lot of friends into them. I just wanted to be different I guess...

So here is what I drive now!

2008 Ford Focus Coupe. Garret 2871R Turbo, 3" TBE, Cosworth Intake Manifold, Clutchmasters Stage 4, and a shit ton of other stuff... Mad 314whp/296wtq on a stock 2.0 engine.

It's been boosted, slammed, stanced, blew the Clutch up, threw more boost at it, then blew it up again, and now it's getting built.

Nice man, great welcome back post.

I think most of us would say you should daily the coupe and build the hatch though :D Any reason why you went the other way?
 
I had bought the Coupe in 2010... Started doing little stuff to it... Decided to boost it beginning of last year. Friend was selling the hatch, gave me a great offer so I picked it up cheap. It has over 200K on it, and still going strong haha... It's an 02 SVT with a bunch of parts from Europe.
 
Not a focus fan, but it looks really nice. I bet its fun, thats plenty of power.
 
Not many are, haha... But I surprisingly get a lot of love... It is definitely a fun little car and no one expects it. I've walked STI's, Mustangs, Evo's, and a bunch of other cars... The faces they make are pretty hilarious.
 
It's probably the best American sports car in the fwd segment. A few of us have some appreciation for the car. Especially the svt package ones
 
Never seen that Gen of a focus done nicely. Looks good dude.
 
Haha, I've actually been looking at what the new market has. No intentions on making a move, but the Integra has 204k on it. If the motor pops I want to have a clue of what's out there. Of course, I'm also attempting to pick up an old Grand Cherokee(ZJ), Cherokee(XJ), or Comanche(MJ) for when the Integra just isn't the right vehicle.
