Hey, my name is David and I'm a senior here at JMU. I'm an accounting major/CIS minor. My civic is the sexiest looking car at JMU for sure! Did I say sexiest? I meant dirtiest...

In my free time I like rebuilding engines and rear-ending yellow E36 M3's.

I've been to a few meets in the past, but should be able to attend most if not all meets this semester because I am now jobless!

Nothing new since last year; just the mild engine build and boosted. Last dyno'd at 287whp/252tq.
Not to mention the insanely clean rustoleum paint job!

Hmm off topic but I just realized our forum is British English! Color with a "u"? Amagad!

Unfortunately no, it's a D16. Torque steer is still a bit much though lol.

And I'm looking forward to some meetings! =p

Lol i got some weird looks the other day cause i hit 20psi on that bridge over 81, spinning through 2nd or 3rd trying to get my boost gauge to work properly. It's been acting up lately and doesn't show vacuum below -5psi.

Watching Love the Beast made me remember that I have a couple videos i made in 2008 about my car; they're somewhat boring, but my own little documentaries from when i got the car in 2001. Enjoy!

How did the boosted civic do in the snow today?

My car is way off campus buried in a giant snow pile I'd assume lol.

And I watched that first video and noted that your bay is sprayed white. That car would look really clean sprayed champ or taffeta white with those blades. I am a little biased on white hondas haha.
