And steetable is loosely used nowadays. Does that mean it's emissions legal? Also, what some consider streetable isn't for others...ie, no power steering, no A/C, no sound deadening material, etc. I think 2295 is great but it's far from what I consider to be streetable.

My 3rd gen wouldn't pass emmisions when it was bone stock. Does that mean it's not streetable? My daily driven accord doesn't have A/C either. Does that make it not streetable?

I drive my car on the street quite a bit.

Looks like it's time for a repost of Bret Kepner Cardinal Rules of Heads-Up Racing:

1. The person who wins the championship is ALWAYS cheating.

2. All cars faster than YOURS are cheating.

3. All people slower than YOU know YOU'RE cheating.

4. If your name is LUPE, well....come on...

5. The tech guys hate YOU but let everybody else slide.

6. All the OTHER people ruin it for everybody else.

7. If it wasn't for people like YOU, racing would totally suck.

8. Any car not built under a tree in a backyard by an idiot making less per hour than YOU is a cheating, professional race car.

9. Any racer who willingly spends more money than YOU is cheating.

10. Any racer whose vehicle works better than YOURS is cheating.

Your post sums up what I'm talking about. Everyone has a different version of what they think streetable means. My car, without the A/C, PS, sound deadening material, front skinnies, wouldn't be something I would say is streetable, but in your case, it is. No biggie, just different opinions on what creature comforts make it streetable. Emissions, even with the most basic beginning mods, took passing that out of the question for most 3rd gens anyway.
