I'm Mike and have a '93 R1. It's nothing special though . I look forward to having a new place to read up on and talk about our cars.

Welcome to the forum man, do you have any work done to your ride? You should post some pictures when you get the chance.

Thanks for the welcome. My car isn't much to look at after a hail storm rolled through town. Mod list is relatively small. RE Intake, DP, SP catback, Seibon hood, 99+ tails, Eibach Pro/Illuminas, Gotham suspension pieces and the little things that are boring to talk about.

My paint had a wierd thing going on with it for a while and a friend put it into my head that I had bondo on my car. I couldn't take it anymore so I have to see for myself. Good news: no bondo.

In the end though it needs a coupel grand in dent removal and a full paint job, but it's expensive to do it right.

Thanks again for the welcome everyone.

Welcome jinx, at least you have a good car to project with. Looks good. I have a vertible sitting in the garage waiting for a paint job too, just can't find the extra cash laying around.

nice, well, what are you going to do with it next?

Haha I'm really kind of in the middle of a lot of things...I really need to paint it, but I might as well do dent removal on it, but the dents aren't too bad so I might just have it painted for now and do paintless dent repair later...or after the next hail storm.

Well I had almost everything to go single, but I could figure out all the little knick knacks I needed and knew I'd be spending more money and then the hail storm rolled through and so I decided to start selling off my single parts. So I sold my GT35R, GReddy FMIC, both KG rails and 850/1600cc injectors.

Here they are installed:

Then I bought a RX6 turbo kit from a guy on 7club but that fell through and it took a while for me to get my money back so that money was spent before it found it's way back to me so I'm kind of back at square one. Currently on the list though will be a midpipe (paranoid that it might be clogging and I'm just not noticing), restrictor pieces, and a large SMIC of some sort. Still need a datalogit and wideband setup before I can go on.

I'm still reading up on my PFC that's sitting in my room. I have a Flyrx7 pod and defi guages waiting to go into the car, but I haven't found the time to actually figure out this daisy chain system just yet. I just have so much to do that I'm really not even sure where to start. Oh and I have a cf M2 intake box, but I'll have to save up for another turbo kit. This is probably the least modified car I've owned in a while...still trying to figure it all out. My friend and I have a friendly competition between us so I either have to admit he's faster (for once) or just set myself up with a bigger turbo. I'm impressed with how fast the twin scroll GT42R spools so I've been looking into that. Haha it's just a matter of where to begin.

Here's my friendly competition: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5do1nIjOLOk
