Good Evening/Morning folks

Just came home... ok... nothing like "50 shades of whatever" happen tonight... sorry to disappoint some of your guys/gals... just a catch-up dinner & movie with an old friend...

We parted after the movie at about 11:50pm and I was like... "why not drive around...?"

No rain this evening and the temp is warm... top down and cruise around the city...

2 hours....

Night life and night breeze...

this was the first time ive ever really driven it like it was meant to and it did not disappoint. with the 25 row oil cooler my temps stayed in the 200 degree mark the entire 65 miles. ambient temperature in the valley was 100+ degrees! however, once i stopped...temp's soared to 220-230 degrees quickly (pitstopped at lick observatory). brakes held up quite nicely as well (newly added SS lines and RBF600), but im thinking of changing the power steering fluid now. anyone flush theirs?

PW nismo...

i think i might get me a greddy exhaust for my G instead.
Mr.kenchan, to hear you are happy with the new Fit, and I am glad you found Honda made improvement on the new model, you know, under the current global economy condition, we usually hear about cutting cost on R&D and cost on material & quality, on Honda!!

Also to see your mods on the FitSport Junior. on leaving the suspension & exhaust in stock form, I too believe there's no need to touch the suspension since it's a DD, and for the exhaust... I will feel on trying to max out the exhaust note...

Maybe new rims?
