no. The originally K2RD went of out business in San Jose, California. Paul the owner went back to school to get his Masters while Seth Wilson (with his beautiful CYM FC3S) moved out here to Tucson, Arizona, also to go to School at University of Arizona.

Seth is running his own business here in Tucson. If you want K2RD block-off plates, then you can still get them from Seth.

Seth and Mike were associated with K2RD. Paul went back to school to finish up his degree IIRC

Damn, still think FD owners are not ********...?

You really should shut your mouth if you have no idea what we are talking about.

Last time I checked, this is not The Lounge.

You're just reinforcing your ignorance the more you open your mouth.
I'd recommend you...STFU.

You are quite the keyboard commando.

I know you have an axe to grind because I dared to challenge you in the fc section where you evidently consider yourself omnipotent. News flash---none of us are 100% correct all the time.

You live in Hawaii, yet are filled with all this negativity. I feel bad for you......perhaps take up yoga? surfing? If I ever get stationed over there, I can offer you a hug, as long as you are ok with that .

Admit it, most of you, deep down inside, want a Honda or at least a Yugo (painted TAXI-CAB yellow)

Hey, you're just reinforcing my idea that FD owners are ********.
Nothing wrong with that...

I'm glad you're secure with your sexuality.
I'm envious that where you're from, you can openly claim guys are gay.
Down here, try calling someone gay will get you beat.

If you look back through the thread, someone else used the 'coming out of the closet line' with regard to driving hondas, and I didnt catch the joke, was confused, and basically asked, 'what, you mean he is gay?' with a virtual head scratch.

That's about it. This mountain out of molehill thing is silly.

Anyway, enough is enough. I have better things to do, take care ted !

Don't worry about me - I'm just toying with him.
I'm just sitting here chuckling about him trying to **** with his driveshaft in the other thread and learning about cleaning his fuel injectors...
I was going to drop my replies anyways.
It's kinda personal when someone makes fun of a company that you cofounded a few years back.
So of course I gotta give em hell...

(a) had no idea you cofounded k2rd. I cofounded a shop as well and certainly don't fly off the handle every time someone questions the sexuality of any member of said shop.

(b) if you think that was making fun of you, then I feel sorry for you. seriously.

(c) Difference between you and me: I am not an expert on FCs and will freely admit that. You are not an expert on FDs, and freak out when someone dares contradict you. As per our earlier little spat, I challenge you to leave the safe confines of your fc section and enter the FD section proclaiming that the FD stock twins are **** turbos with **** power capability, or whatever it is you exactly posted. If you solicit input from people that actually own and drive and mod these cars, then you wouldnt make such ridiculous ignorant statements.

(d) I would love it if you never post in a thread that I start. I don't want nor need your advice/input/negativity.

(e) Have a great day!
