Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

UtahHondas.net January Car of the Month


There's a lot to like about this Prelude. It's sitting proper on a set of JDM DC5 Integra Type-R wheels spaced out 15mm in the front and 20mm in the rear by a set of ICHIBA Version II spacers. A set of Work Tuner lug nuts keep everything attached to the hubs. Tein Super Street coilovers keep the BB6 low enough to look good, but high enough to not rip off the USDM Honda body kit when it goes over a speed bump.
Rounding out the exterior goodies are the Depo black housing headlights. Inside these headlights are AP1 S2000 retrofit HID projectors with E46 BMW 3 Series bezels. A set of Hawk Ceramic brake pads help reel the car in when it needs to stop.

Norman hasn't addressed the engine yet, but it's definitely in the cards. He has added some power adders in the form of a JDM Type-S Dynamic intake, a K&N drop in air filter, NGK spark plugs and wires, and a RS*R cat back exhaust.

His handle on UtahHondas.net is JDMBB6 for a reason: the car is packing a lot of JDM goodness. In addition to the JDM fog lights, ITR wheels, red EP3 and DC5 Honda badges (front and rear respectively), flush mount spoiler and S-Spec decal that you'll definitely see there's a JDM EK9 shift knob and shift boot that you probably won't see.

Jordan's WRX Wagon

Jordan Porritt, of JLP-Photo.com fame picked up this wagon last year. When he picked it up it was ridding high on wheels that been abused by many many curbs, but like every WRX it had the potential to be something great.



The car is now sitting low (really low) on 18x9.5 +38 Work Emotion CR Kai's shod with 225/40r18 Hankook Ice Bear snow tires (it is winter after all). Bringing the car closer to the pavement are a set of BC Racing Inverted Coilovers with 10K front and 8K rear springs. BC Racing camber plates keep everything lined up in the back.



The 2.5 liter flat four inhales through a COBB intake and exhales through a Perrin divorced downpipe and an A'PEXi N1 Exhaust. A COBB Accessport v2 has been brought in to add some more power and a COBB radiator shroud helps to keep things cool. A set of Kartboy shifter bushings keep shifts crisp wherever Jordan takes the wagon.



The only major exterior additions have been a V Limited replica lip and a set of Audi-esque LEDs in the headlights. The LEDs get plenty of attention, especially from the VW guys.



Is it the fastest WRX around? Nope. Is it one of the best looking? It's up there. There's something to be said about a slammed wagon on a set of Works that everyone can agree about

Favorite photos from '09

A shot quite a bit in 2009. Not nearly as much as I wanted to, but plenty nonetheless. So here are my favorite photos from last year. Feel free to tell me your favorites. By that I mean favorites of mine, of yours, of whoever's. What photos got you going last year?



This was one of the first times Kat and I hung out. She's awesome, I hope we can hang out and shoot more in 2010





I skate with lots of people, and I love em all but if I had to take 2 guys and get tricks it's gonna be Garrison and Jeff. They just go at anything! Jeff blew out his knee, but he'll be back by the summer. Garrison is Garrison, I know he's been angry but I really only remember him having a huge grin on his face.

Side note: Brock's video is done, and the homies (which I'm not apparently) have seen it. Jovi told me about it, he said it was really good. AND it's got some of the guys in it: Glenn, Jovi, Garrison, Jeff, Nick, Matt, Hads and some other favorites. When Brock has a proper premier, or I see it, I'll let you know about it. Anyway, back to the list.



Brody's race car. I love this fuckin photo



The Legacy Bridge at the University of Utah. Everyone likes the color photo, but I like the black and white one better.

So there you have it. My favorites from '09
