Greetings everyone.
I just recently bought my first Mitsu., a new 2013 WW GSR, and now I completely understand the patronage for these cars. Compared to either of my Hondas - it's an absolute blast to drive and I'm really enjoying it. Late September / early October I'll be installing a Quaife front LSD, Kelford cams, and a slew of HKS products to bring it up to ~400whp. I'll be documenting everything in a build thread when we commence.



Short & sweet @ me:
I've been into cars for as long as I can remember, 5-6 years old?
2001 - 2011 I did sales & tech for Kinsler Fuel Injection
2006 - Launched the Honda ITB program at KFI, which continue to set/break ET & MPH records today
2011 - Resigned from KFI / accepted Brand Manager position at Motovicity Distribution for HKS, Kelford Cams, and Quaife Engineering
And I've been traveling the world and supporting my brands ever since.

In high school, I bought my first hot rod - a brand new 95 Honda delSol. I still own it, it's had 3 engines in & out of it so far. Currently has a K20 sitting by it's front bumper as it rests on jack stands in the garage. It's a dedicated auto-x car and has never seen a drag strip in it's life.

In 2002, I bought a new Civic Si. Still own, still daily drive. 224,xxx miles on it currently, has been on AEM S1 (tuned by yours truly) since ~89,000 miles. I think I hold the record for most miles on an AEM box but there's no way to verify. I've made a few 1/4 mile passes with it but it's certainly not a race car. (I/H/E/EMS + a bunch of misc.) Has never seen a auto-x course.

About 6 weeks ago, I pulled the trigger on a WW 2013 GSR. And after the planned upgrades, this car will definitely see auto-x courses and 1/4 mi passes. Very excite!

My goal is to retire one day with a small fleet of original owned race cars. I'm slowly getting there.

I just activated a separate vendor account here to support my brands so if you have any tech. or product development questions - I'm delighted to help and look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks for reading. Stay tuned for a fun Evo X build.

NIce man! cant wait to see your build and welcome aboard the Wicked White crew of X's

hope to hear more from you!

 

Thanks man. Next weekend I'll be ~1 hour north of you at 86fest. If anyone is going, I'll be wandering around in a Tuned by HKS shirt.

 

welcome and congrats! have you seen the light? I hope you can sell more hks parts as they are the staple of the FQ versions of the evo!

 

that's this next weekend? damn maybe ill go! ...and you sell hks parts? 0.0

 

Not this weekend (8-3 / 8-4), next weekend (8-10 - 8-11).

I don't do any sales. The sales reps at Motovicity handle that. I give trainings & tech support to them & their customers (the shops you order/buy from) for our exclusive brands (HKS, Quaife, Kelford). And now anyone on EvoM. But I'll have to elaborate on that in a different thread.

 

cool ride. i came from a teggy GSR JRSC, full bolt ons, light flywheel and clutch. done with hondas when that got stolen.
