    Make that 10K that I put on it since I pulled it out of the bushes one year ago. Sorry if I didn't say that right.

    Not my NB, but I took my friend’s NB1 with NB2 VVT engine swap, MS3 ECU and full exhaust for a quick drive.

    What a torquey engine. The car just kept going, even in 4th.

    Yeah, I DON’T FIT IN NBs. With their bulky door cards and massive center console, my knees are squeezed between the steering wheel and said parts.

    I’m 1.91 or about 6’3 if I did it correctly

    I'm 6' and I feel like my NB is roomier than my NA.

    Sitting at the shop, waiting for my A-arms to get replaced. Really hope this is the car's last trip to the shops...

    Not awesome, but a very good improvement.

    Way better than mine. The Tick got washed the day of the accident and not once since.

    Solo road trip down the coast this weekend.
    Saturday had a meeting in Carmel, then drove PCH down to Pismo Beach.
    As I was leaving Pismo this morning to head back up PCH I couldn't resist going down to the beach.

    Got the title rebranded. The Tick is 100% legal at this point.

    Need to address an exhaust leak and, I think, swap out motor mounts, but those aren't emergencies.

    I installed the driver cooling system from my NA to my NB. I have a small, removable cooling system that pumps cold water through tubing sewn into my shirt while I'm on the track. I connected the power source for it to my power antenna. I wasn't using the antenna anyways, so I can turn the system on while on the grid or track by turning the radio on. It worked great!
