Parts Review: Ballade Sports Timing Chain Correction Gear It’s funny how when I started this blog years ago BalladeSports wasn’t even a shop.

Update: Still fuck you Sportscar Shop
I received an email from Artin today…….. In the email he states”-Regarding your seat rails, you are not the only one who stacks washers to get seats to fit properly, i have done this numerous times. Including seats in my car, and even some on some cars i have here at the moment. I even… Continue reading Update: Still fuck you Sportscar Shop
Update: It’s been awhile… Fuck you SportsCar Shop Sterling Virginia
Hi all, It’s been awhile. Probably over a year at this point….. Plenty of things have happened since I’ve been gone. I’ve gotten married, I moved to California, SoCal specifically, and had shipped my car to California…. I got my S2k back earlier this year…. After about 9 months at the painters. The first part… Continue reading Update: It’s been awhile… Fuck you SportsCar Shop Sterling Virginia

Alpha-N tuning, the shit.
Today I auto-x’ed my car for the first time in ages. It was okay, but I think I have plenty of power on the table. I think I did well for someone who is essentially a newbie. I’ve been street tuning my car via map-based tuning, it works okay but I’m running super rich… Continue reading Alpha-N tuning, the shit.

My old Macbook finally decided to die, and now I’m on a Hackintosh Dell Vostro 1510 for the time being. I was on my… Continue reading Want: ASM bonnet
Tech/Review: RSX wideband with Hondata kpro
I’ve had my Hondata Kpro for my s2000 for awhile now. I went with kpro because my car can be ODBII compliant with my ITBs. No other EMS will allow me to do so. I rate Kpro about 6/10. This is my grading breakdown: The Pros: ODBII compliant Read engine codes via kpro User friendly… Continue reading Tech/Review: RSX wideband with Hondata kpro
Want: CR lip
Maybe I am leaning a bit closer to getting a CR lip….. It should look like this……
Want: Front Bumpers
I’ve been debating what bumper to get for the longest time now. At one point I had my heart set on an amuse r1 front bumper. I just don’t know if the price can justify a bumper that looks like an ap2 bumper with a mild lip. I like how clean and subtle it is.… Continue reading Want: Front Bumpers
