Applekat: GsR Love

[ Timeslips ] [ The Bad ] [ Pals ]

i found her at the Cerritos dealership atop the grassy knoll with the concrete circle. your color was strange and unique... which brought me back to you. i didn't want the Type R anymore.

*~Intro to Applekat-ness~*

Visible Specs: Ambers front and rear, 97 rear taillights, HKS Drager, 16" Work Ewing Rs-B wrapped with Yokohama Parada Spec 2's 205/45/16R, Raybrig fog lights w/Koito super whites.

Applekat's favorite food is 91 octane 76 gasoline. her yummy treats last for Appx. 300miles. she has a 13.1G tank.... 

Why a Gs-R? well i originally fell in love with the Integra Gs-R back on Christmas of 1994. my friend P.. took me out to the beach.. it was so cute and different from anything i'd ever seen before. i think i was a bit distracted from our "date" and accidentally fell in love with the car. What about the Type R? that one is easy.. they don't come in purple.. plus it's too hard to accessorize and you'd never catch me wearing all white/creme unless i'm getting married..

my car is too cute. she loves to play on freeways and all over the trails created by the government. adventure is her middle name. On paved roads, through any corner, the rule of thumb is.. double the speed -5mph. this is normal driving conditions. if i know the road enough.. she'll take the corner even faster. we can also accomplish parking brake u turns. you usually will find no antennae up. because i enjoy engine noise over music.

Street Racing: ah back in the days.. ha ha.. i'm not that old. heck i got my Gs-R when i was 17.. that was November of 1997. Had to wait to break her in so those two months everyone thought my car was bomb.. custom painted.. but the rims weren't anything they'd ever seen before. i drove around for 3000miles then i could unleash the beast! i went everywhere.. Cerritos,downtown LA, Ontario Mills.. and all had great stories. my GsR's killed plenty of LS tegs. ontario salt lake.. u remember don't you. not that any of my friends had anything more than a Ls.. can't help that if thats all they have to dish out.. biters served..

Adventures: k.. i was driving on the freeway.. the lowered black GsR pulls up next to me starts revving.. of course i had to have a full load of people in my car.. and my car was at like 300 miles.. so i just sped up a bit.. no vtec.. boo.. i had to be real good.. after the 3000mile break in.. i found this red rx7 going towards ontario.. u probably already know what happened next..  i was smoked big time.. he pulled and pulled and disappeared into a little dot. LOL.. at least i got a thumbs up.. i'm assuming its because i tried. 

Afterlife of street racing: yea i kinda calmed down when i got this cool Street Image Performance sticker. because my car is part of a "team". i'm told not to dishonor the name. so i'm thinking.. don't race if you don't think  u can win. sure is tempting... i'm waiting for that last ticket to clear. 90mph in a 70.. he he.. the last time i raced was at the Streets of Willow.
