Little love for the Scion, More love for the HONDA!
Loved the tC but traded up to the S2000.
Missed the Scion so got a xA.
Little love for the Scion= 17" wheels, cruise, TRD sways, DC strut brace, misc little bits. Thanks to TRDSPARKS.
LOTS of love for the Honda =
Rota D2 18" with 225 in front and 255 in back
APR carbon fiber F1 mirrors
Invidia burnt titanium tip cat back with test pipe
Apexi VAFC I dyno tuned
Amuse FRC bumper
Fujita Cold Air Intake
Mugen carbon fiber vented hood and cf spoiler
Spoon clutch
Weighted perl finished shift ****
Kenwood head unit with G meter and component speakers
Two large amps
One really large chrome plated Audiobahn 12 inch 1000watt RMS sub in custom box
Honda is in the shop having finishing touches on bumper and new color from House of Kolor! Will update with new pics when I get the car back in one week. Had to pull amps and sub out but that's ok, not driving it yet anyways.

"little love for scion" doesn't mean no love, it means my xA didn't get as much love with parts as the S2K. Thats why I have both! Just more fun to mod the S2K. Sorry for the confusion.

The mirrors weigh 1/5 the stock mirrors and are much more aero. They are also blue tinted to help kill reflections and are wider angle than stock. Pics coming in a sec of my new paint color. . .

Nice S2K. I could never pull it off. Ive had S2Ks in my shop and there just is not enough room for me to be confortable. I feel if I took the door off, I may be able to access the clutch pedal better. But man do they look sweet!

New Paint, satin/matte black!
Here is the finished product. House of Kolor, Hot rod flatz, hot rod black. I don't add anything to the car that doesn't decrease weight or increase performance. Therefore, no stickers, no glue on carbon fiber parts, nothing is just for looks on this car. It has an aftermarket front bumper that increases downforce and increases airflow to the cold air intake. The aftermarket exhaust was picked due to weight savings AND performance numbers (it just happens to be REALLY loud). The engine bay gets pretty hot so the carbon fiber hood has functional vents that pulls the hot air out.
The engine has a vtec controller tuned on a dyno. Other than that the engine is stock. The wheels/tires are staggered like stock but much bigger (18 vs 16) with 8.5 wide in front and 9.5 wide in back. Traction is .98 lateral according to belltronics g meter. 0-60 is under 6 sec. quarter mile is. . . doesn't matter! I like the curves, anyone can dump a clutch
