    Good to see you back. Taking a break is definitely needed. We do different stuff, but it's overall the same concept, and it does get tiresome when you feel obligated to youtube and the audience instead of just doing what you want.

    As an old muscle car guy I got into Hondas 5 years ago and I always come to your channel. Honda’s are so fun. Wish I had gotten into them sooner. I like your style when it comes to good handling “street” cars.
    Nice to have you back man. Do you and have fun.

    Myself and my buddies drove down from the Chicago/milwaukee area for the tail of the dragon meet. Saw the FA5 and was geeking out, had no idea that was you. It’s great ti have you back. Hopefully one day we see you do a DC5/ 1st gen TSX or an EP3

    Stoked to see you back. The k swap fit videos were so helpful. I've been collecting parts to swap my 11 fit. I have the manual tsx harness and ecu! I cannot wait to finally get this thing swapped. I have been trying to figure out if I still need the jumper harness with the manual ecu and manual harness

    Nice to hear that you're doing well. Missed you man. Your B16 series of swap videos back in the day made my EK Type R clone swap go silky smooth. I have always appreciated your real world point of view and attack on these. Other channels that simply throw money at a situation rather than come to an average Joe solution are less interesting. Watching your videos I can relate to much easier and won't break my wallet. Thanks for coming back and don't let this shit get to you, you gotta live your life and be happy.

    I had been wondering where you went brother. While I'm not a content creator, I can understand burnout and how people being dicks in the comments could get old. But I'm glad to see you're coming back. I've always found your content engaging. It's like a regular car guy talking to other car guys and giving us information that we may not know, or just things that you like. Looking forward to what's coming, stay positive and do it for yourself and what makes you happy. Later.

  • @Hondrenalin
    @Hondrenalin 3 місяці тому +1

    I hope, that the people start to appreciate what you are doing. When those people have to say something negative they shouldn't be commenting on videos. You're doing a great job and sharing it for "fun" with the people that are interested into that stuff . Nobody should criticise you . Hope you get back the passion you once had.. greetings from the old world 🤘

Glad you worked through what you needed to in your life and returned to your passion. I've been enjoying your builds for years, glad Im you are back. I love the FA5 because i have one too and enjoy the hell out of it. Looking forward to seeing what your are working on next!

Was supercharged and now turbo. Can’t drive it atm due to fall/winter is starting to settle in up here in the Northeast. Don’t drive her in the winter due to SALT AND BRINE!!! To add, owned my 2007 Si for 14 years now. Go watch my video shorts. 😅

    Damnit boi! That was actually a cool Honda fit. Never thought I'd like a fit. 😂 But I've rode and drove in stock one's and they don't handle bad at all. They're actually growing on me alot. I bet a k swapped fit would kill it in the curves. That was a cool build. One of OG's right here. Hsg mark 👊

    I agree with allot of the cons of the k swap fit. The exhaust, major PITA. Seat position is awful. Shift cables are money but work great. AC is a process because information isn't out there. Then once figured out its really not that bad. Is the car fun? Hell yea its fun. But, at the end of the day its still a fit.
