There is always a group of people, no matter what culture or hobby, who are a step above the rest. The car scene is no different, and it seems that not only in Australia, but around the world that the Honda boys are definitely a step above the rest in terms of build quality and style. At every Honda-based event I have attended in the past 2 years, there have been top-grade cars. Of course there are always those who are a little slow on the uptake, but percentage-wise, Honda boys are definitely ahead of the rest.
Ozhonda, the largest Honda community site in Aus, always organises events here and there and I try and attend most of them. I just so happened to be free for a recent dyno day (yes OMG another one) held at 101 Motorcafe. I popped in for a look, and even though watching Hondas run on the dyno isn’t exactly exciting, it was the quality of cars that appealed. As per usual, they were there in droves.
Of course it wasn’t a Honda only event, and a few other makes showed up for the dyno: a few GTRs getting around including a 33 with a quite puzzling baby blue colour, as well as a 32 running some bodykit I had never seen before. A champagne coloured 180 also rocked up with some of the coolest number plates I have seen around, 321ONO, i laughed anyway. But i think my favorite car of the day was Joe’s red EG Civic, if you know me personally this will come as no surprise as I do not hide the fact that I love that car.
101 is one of the top garages here in Queensland, has a cafe in it as well.
While these two S2Ks may not be stand out cars, they are still very nice rides. The black one is quite clean with those Advan RS wheels, but the red one was a little worse for wear. Being a track car and all, function was definitely over form for this little red S2K. See if you can work out the plates on the black S2000, some super good thinking there.
…and now let us observe a moment of silence for this NSX.
Tim’s Toda EVERYTHING DC5, one of the best builds getting around.
ugh J Speeds look sooo good
The 32 i was talking about before…
Why does noone modify Accord Euros properly over here in Aus? Chris’ one here is the only decent example I have seen since their release.
Gotta love those plates, and 360rwhp as well
Joe’s Civic is so much win, same car different coloured wheels each side.
Weirdest colour i have ever seen on a 33 GTR, and matched with white GTCs, it makes for one very odd colouring.
11.9sec Turbo D Series. Yeah you heard it right: D SERIES.
Widebody FD RX7. Actually widebody is an understatement, more like gargantuan-body.
Twin turbo set up on 101’s R32 GTR ‘
80MBU’. Helped it run a 10.3 quarter mile on street tyres. Scary stuff.
Was a good day, good to catch up with some of the boys and also see some awesome cars. I didn’t get shots of everything, but some cars didn’t really need coverage if you know what I mean. I don’t cover meets, I cover awesome cars haha. After all the runs were done, it was mainly people standing around chatting, then from out of no where, this guy in a Hillclimb built Swift drives out of the 101 garage, sits in the middle of the road annnnddd…
ahhahaha what a champ
