We (Honda Tuning magazine staff) were all told the same thing everyone else was for the last six months or so but once we actually went to Japan and spoke with the guys at Spoon in person, the story changed. Our reporter/writer, Adam Geczi, was actually the one who pried all of this out of one...

I'm looking for a new or used ARC rear shock tower brace.

Agreed. I've been dealing with shops for quite a few years, even owned my own Honda repair facility for a while, and have never come across a place quite like Downforce. I almost feel bad after leaving there considering all of the little things they've helped me with and not charged me for.

Glad you're happy with the outcome, Tom. Your car deserves it.

That's Jay's car, former Sport Compact Car magazine engineering editor, now with Modified. If you guys are interested in it, check out the last two or three issues of SCC before it got cancelled for the initial articles on the car.

Actually, I thought my post was clear in that the statement in quotations did in fact come from M-TEC representatives themselves. I am simply relaying the information that I was given. I have absolutely no interest in speculating. Like I said, make of it what you will.

I'm not sure anybody knows what will become of this, including M-TEC. I was at M-TEC last Tuesday and had a chance to look this car over thoroughly and, believe me, I did. It does have an engine in it and what appears to be an Xtrac transmission but I can't confirm that. I can tell you that it...

I was just at Spoon’s Type One shop earlier this week and they are in the process of assembling five of these right now. Some of this might have been covered already but here are the facts I got directly from the owner of Spoon: This is a joint venture between Honda and Spoon. In fact, Spoon is...

I need a single engine harness plug/connector for one of the coils. If anybody has a junk harness and would be willing to sell the one plug, I'd be happy to pay for it. I don't need the pins, just the connector.

For those who haven’t figured it out already, the whole “Be a Baller” thing was a stroke of sarcasm. We all know how affordable NA1s are nowadays. Depending on which state you live in, you could have a tough time finding the magazine. Let me know if you have trouble and I’ll try to help you...

Yeah, it's pretty informal. Come and go as you please, park wherever there's an open spot. Some people come and stay for a half hour or so, some more.

You too, Eddie. I'll see you there another time.

A friend of mine from Norm Reeves Honda asked me to post this here. Norm Reeves Honda of Cerritos proudly presents its “2nd Wednesdays” monthly meet. As you might expect from the name, it's held the second Wednesday of each month. • Meets are held in front of the parts department from 7-10p.m...

Mine will only alert you after the vehicle exceeds whatever pre-set speed you program into it. I don't think it will log speeds though.

I've been using AutoPage's C3 (c3autopageusa.com) for about six months now. It's got web-based GPS tracking and email/text alerts based on parameters that you set. If my car moves more than 10 feet with the system armed, I'll get an email on my phone and can immediately start tracking it. You...
