We’re looking at a JDM GSR engine, with a top mount turbo kit, which uses a GOLD Garrett GT30 ball bearing turbo. Speaking of the blinged out engine bay, let’s take a look real quick. He probably has to plan a route when he’s driving his car… must be a pain in the but just take a look at the car. But look at how the car sits, thanks to the Zeal Function B6 coilovers! With the mudflaps too, Mikey’s car won’t be clearing speedbumps anytime soon. If you had an engine bay as blingy as Mikey’s, you would have scores of people flocking around your car to take photos of it too. Don’t listen to the guys at America’s Tire that are trying to sell you “custom mag wheels” – they don’t know sh!t! I hope I never see another Integra rocking some lame off-the-shelf 18×7 and 8 stagger and +44 offset. Thanks for the support Mikey! And PROPS kid! I’m excited because THIS is what’s up. But sadly, I didn’t get to award anything to this guy except for some daps and a few MotorMavens stickers, which he proudly rocked on the car and passed along to the crew so they would rock them too. (Integra owners, WRITE THIS DOWN!)ĭamn, I think Mikey needs to win a trophy for his rear fitment. Here’s a photo of Mikey’s Jline SDMSL2 wheels in the rear, which is a 16×9.5 (+0 offset)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In order to pull cards and look legit like this, you need to rock a 205/40/R16 tire. I love the mirrors, the visors, the strut bar, the MotorMavens sticker on the window, and my favorite… the way it sits! When scantily clad honeys like this one pass by this red DC2 Integra with its heart of gold, they say “Hey Mikeyyyyyyyy!” S2000 owners, you better write down that rear math immediately! You heard it first on MotorMavens! The Mugen front chin spoiler adds a bit more personality to the normally smily demeanor of a stock S2K, and the wheels? Well, I bet you’re all interested in the sizes of Alex’s HRE 540Rs, so here they are. According to Alex, it has been painted with Verde Good Wood Metallizzato paint, which is Maserati’s fancy way of saying metallic green. This S2000 belongs to Alex Zhao from AS1 (Doesn’t AS1 sound like an R&B group? I wonder if they sing? lol). The stance or the girl, which one would you choose? Regarding the above photo, make a decision. Their style is fresh and innovative, and all I can say is… it’s about freakin time! The Southern Cali Honda guys have now joined the aggressive offset movement, and hopefully the path has now been paved for the rest of the country… please take notes, kids! Hopefully the days of FR guys hating on Hondas and FF drivers are gone… I personally have nothing but respect for these guys. In my opinion, these cars inject new enthusiasm and excitement to the Honda scene, and the Japanese car scene in Southern California overall. These aggressive offset, slammed Hondas are dope as hell. We need help! We’re growing at such an alarming rate, it’s honestly quite overwhelming… if anyone is down to help the cause, please hit us up at motormavens(at)!īut back to our unfinished story about Nisei Showoff, perhaps the thing that most impressed and surprised me was the sheer number of good offset Hondas that made their way to Little Tokyo to represent. It’s true, Motor Mavens was a grassroots effort that was started by a few close friends, but we are working night and day to bring you new content, broaden our reach and let everyone know about the site. Some of you have been dying to see our next installment of Nisei Week coverage, but it’s been hard to sit down and organize my photos because I’ve been so slammed with meetings over the past few days.
