Default New guy from Colorado

Hey guys,

My name is Ryan. I've been building drag Hondas for years now, and I've decided to do an LQ9 S2000. I'm soaking up as much as I can as fast as I can, so sorry for any stupid questions, but I am well versed in turbo and NA builds. Just not with twice the amount of cylinders lol. I can't wait to have some torque!

Hey guys! 94LTZ have you heard of Colorado Race Fab in Greeley? I used to build the motors there, and I'm still close with those guys. I'm up in Fort Collins now.

It's too bad they weren't able to get the car out to the track much this year. Nayr's EF is nasty!

I haven't been to the shop in a while but I need some of the cold side piping on my camaro welded up so I might stop by.

Have any pictures of your car?

I haven't purchased the S2000 yet. I'm buying all of the parts first and building the motor before I get the car. I graduate in May from CSU, so I can't really afford a car payment until then. I owned the red EK hatch that's at the shop now. It made 507 whp for a year or so. I love Hondas, but now I'm coming around to V8's because they're so damn cheap to make power on!

Nice, I'm strongly considering selling my c6 and buying a BRZ and building my extra 5.3 for it.

That would be a ton of fun! The BRZs look pretty sweet. Any import car with a V8 is pretty much a badass little car lol.
