Default my run in with a rarity...

today sitting in auto class waiting for 1:00 to roll around so i can go home :rick: this kid pulls up in a ssbp g2 teg. ugly kit, supra taillight conversion, really bad paint job, typical ricer stuff. i ask the kid if its his, he says its his brothers. i pop the hood and to my surprise i see a dohc vtec motor staring back at me. so i think "oh shit b16 swap" but upon closer inspection it was a b17. to make sure, i check the vin #. sure enough, its a DB2. 92-93 gsr. first one i've ever seen. too bad the exterior looked like shit. hnoes:
