I've been lurking around on this forum for about 5 years now, and was slow to ever put in time and money on my FA5, so I guess it's time for me to make a build thread...
My previous Si was a 2009 Honda Civic Si. The car was pretty much "all show and no go." build. I had it up until I got T-Bone 2 years ago..:facepalm:
When I was in the market for a new car, I was thinking to just leave Honda scene and get a E92 BMW M3 instead. Until Sam Ip (bonkerx02) offered me a deal that I can't pass up for his supercharged FA5. At first I wanted to leave it as close to stock as possible and didn't want to do too much to it (Sleeper Mode), but as always ...........things don't go as planned. :facepalm:
