MBrent's slowly evolving FA5 daily-to-touge buildish type thread
Gents.
Longtime no see.
I have an 07 HRP FA5. I plan to slowly do stuff. It has 90k on it.
Mod list
-Skunk2 72mm DBW throttle body
-CAI
-Gutted Cat
-Hondata Flashpro tuned by me
Future mods
- Omni Power QMC (already ordered, should be here by 5/15)
- Ground Control/Koni setup (because Taiwanese coilovers are ****e, and custom spring rates and rebuiladble custom-valved dampers made in USA are ****)
- Enkei RPF1
- Yokohama meats
- Brembo blanks/EBC pads
- Straight pipe
- Ported factory IM by me
- Mild cams
- Dyno
Anywho, its a decent daily. Not looking for ridiculous power, but a little more wouldnt hurt. I have some fleabay springs to satiate my lust for low, but they have not been installed. Full synthetic oil change, Amsoil synchromesh, and QMC installation taking place next wknd. I know, pics or GTFO. Give me a bit and I will conjure some up.

Thanks man. My photobucket ate ****, and Ive been super busy putting together Gundam models, so I still have no pics. 8th gens ate ok I suppose. It just isnt as raw as the other hondas Ive had. Kinda flat if you catch my drift.

Got to spend a small amount of quality time with her today. New filter and Mobil 5w30 synthetic oil change. Trans fluid replaced with Amsoil 5w30 Synchromesh synthetic. Few busted knuckles and driveway stains. Fixed my Stang and my Dad's commuter this wknd as well. On to pics...
Skunk2 72mm tb and some ****e silicon stuff^
My CEL is on because I havent disabled my secondary o2 yet. Flashpro be hard yall.
Civ-wak with my Golf looking extra sad in the background. TDI FTW
the best mod so far...
I dont particularly like any of you, except for maybe Gene. Thats only because I fear what he is capable of. I will get to work on some low and a front lip soon. In the meantime, Im honing my alcohol consumption skills. Blueberry Bull and Ciroc makes me happy. Hit me up on instagram, mbrentc1983. Also, I forgot that I like Trust. He has more 8th gen knowledge than I do. /rambling post

You wouldnt happen to be in Ukraine would you? Buddy of mine has family over there. His pops was on capitol hill during the cold war, then "went" to Kiev to "edit a newspaper." Anywho, SBU affiliation or some ****, who knows. Hes always rambling on about Crimea and Harley Klub...

Go enjoy yourself on the black sea. Ukranian girls.... good lord. Theres a suicide girl thats Ukranian. Plum Suicide. Google image search that bish. Stalk worthy... I will try to find out what newspaper Ken's dad edits in Kiev. Let me know if its propagandish...

So, my ****box has been giving me fits. Front end vibrations, alignment wonky, diving under anything more than moderate braking. Replaced pads, rotors, inner tie rods...... to no avail. On my way in to work monday and the pass front snapped to the ditch, almost flipped. Called the wrecker, had it towed to my Grandad's shop. Finally got under it today, and I find that THE MOTHERLOVING LCA BOLT HAS VANISHED. HOLY SHIZ. I COULDVE DIED. Anywho, Honda disillusionment sets in. Time for a photo dump.
MY new eastwood fender roller
Axis Klassics on her for now, really want RPF1...
New tie rod end, the Glock 20 is just to liven up an already dismal photo.
new tie rod end installed
HOLY JEEBUS, LCA bolt gone. Source of my problems.
Gonna order proper bolt, install lowering springs, and finish rolling my fenders this wk. Also going to install NGK Iridium plugs. TLC for the mother****er that tried to kill me.
