Who sent the letter to HT mag exhaust notes about the 3g?

[A20A1]

Huh?

What do you mean exhaust notes?
I sent them an email about 3geez years ago, but not exhaust.

Can you give any details?

Care to elaborate on that so the rest of us know what you are talking about?

[Toneloc5145]

I think "Exhaust Notes" is a section in Honda Tuning magazine where readers send in letters asking questions about something. Their was probably a letter from somebody asking about a 3g, and Jigga's asking who sent the letter because its probably in this months issue.

BUT this is all probability. I havnt seen the new Honda Tuning so i wouldnt know if my theory was correct.

[jigga89SEi]

Sorry guys... I fiigured it was all the buzz on the site...
But I will say I'm a littl ashamed to own a 3g cause who-evey this was sounded a little whiny.. I'm scanning the article... I'll be back in a minute...

[A20A1]

K, thanks


Whiney...
I think we need to send another letter in and make sure it shows us in a good light.

[jigga89SEi]

Toneloc is right... BTW where r u at in VA?

[Toneloc5145]

Im in Fauquier County, NO VA

[jigga89SEi]

To read the article u'll have to save it then magnify how ever u like... But I don't feel like retyping all that..n I don't know how to use my mother-in-laws photo editing program...


BTW Mike... I plan on sending them a letter to ask pretty much the same question I asked on the ITB forum and to see what they would recommend for mangement... But I need to get a couple more ducks in a row before I send it to them...

[A20A1]

I can't read that even if I enlarge it... the pixles have already meshed.

ITB forum?
...or on a different site?

[jigga89SEi]

not forum... Post... my bad..

How can I make it readable for yall using... Photo Explosion?

[A20A1]

Anyway to get a larger file? or scan it in at a higher resolution... but even a larger image at 72 dpi with the image measurement in inches closely matching the actual page size is proably better though. You can e-mail it to me at

say the page is 11 inches high you need the image to be 11 inches... but the resolution/dpi can be 72 since thats all we can use on most monitors. It should be about 800 pixles high.

What does it ask you when you scan in the image? or is it a digital photo... a digital photo will probably need you to adjust your camera settings...
if its a camera/phone try taking pictures of segments of the page and post up multiple images.

[jigga89SEi]

Sent.. Lemme know if I need to rescan it.. It wont be till later though...

[A20A1]

k

[A20A1]

Don't say I don't luv you guys

thanks for scanning and sending me the file

[3G Jester]

thats pretty cool. now if they'll actualy do a story on johnny o instead of an editorial response....

[jigga89SEi]

So now, lets get down to the nitty gritty... WHO WAS THIS?.. LOL

[Cheeseburger]

if I'm not mistaking some one made a post about that article...

here it is...

[A20A1]

ahaha, watch it's someone from that thread.

[jigga89SEi]

Yup... if u scroll down u'll see it...

I sent honda tuning an e-mail. Here it is.
In your latest issue of the magazine you have an article about a 1993 integra gsr. In the article you discuss how the owner had a 1989 accord before he got the integra. I have a 1988 accord lx-i which is also third generation accord (1986-1989). I found the comment about the accord being "boxy and gutless" to be very offensive, and I don't understand how a magazine that is supposed to support Hondas and acuras can say anything bad about another Honda or acura. I have only been working on my 3gee (third generation accord) for a few months and have gotten a handful of mods done despite the lack of after-market support for my car. I am a member on a website www.3geez.com, and it is dedicated to the 1986-1989 accords. There are guys on there who are running in the 10's in the quarter mile, doing custom turbo projects, and many other major projects and all of the work they are doing is custom because of limited after-market parts. I am very proud of my car and the progress I have made, and the amount of work that I have done in only a few months. I am getting ready to drop in a new engine and give it a new paint job, as well as a few other mods over the winter. My car is nothing compared to the guys that have been working on theirs for years and have thousands of dollars invested into them, but I hope to have a respectable 3gee show car within the next year or two. In future issues I hope that you can do an article on a third generation accord so that you can see what i am talking about, and after i am done my work over the winter I will send you some pictures if you would like me to. Thank you for your time and understanding.

Yea that was me, lol. It sounded a lot better at the time but o well, that was months ago. Hopefully that it will get them looking at some 3geez so we can finally get in the mag for a good reason.

[A20A1]

You did good.

[LiTtLe xOx BitT]

My intentions were right, lol. The thing i dont understand is i never said my last name and somehow its on there, can they do that?? and the location is completely wrong.

[A20A1]

Its so they don't come to your house and egg your grocery getter

[Lockleaf]

I'd say it is boxy, gutless, and uninspirational. That being said, I own two, love them both and plan on spending stupid amounts of money on one. But I liked their response as to how not waiting for the aftermarket and what we do is really the spirit of what that mag represents.
