@Esco, looks good, reminds me of when Andy was rockin's some wheel covers.

@Mikey, now about that drop......;)

@Rico, that last dude has nerve to be making smart comments with a name like that.

@@CB, the second attempt shot is better, GC's make a world of difference, it seems.

@Mike, which dress-up bolts did you go with? I picked up a set of the VMS Racing 20pc ones.

@Akingkhan, way to put the structural integrity of the rack/your roof, to the test.

Something about not being able to find Si's...
Found a set in st. Louis for $400...

Does everyone else have that styrofoam piece there?
I do but it came off. Afraid to leave it off, for whatever reason, I zip tied it back on.

Mikey, now about that drop......;)
YA RLY. I'd like a set of A-Specs, HFPs, or something similar. My Si's have a number of dings, rash, and blemishes. While I like the way they look, I don't feel the desire to invest in renewing them.

As for a drop, it's next on my list. I'm still awaiting a couple of prospects but once one comes through, aside from a few necessities, I'm saving for my yellows and sportlines. Don't hold me to it but I'd like to promise that by the time everyone gets to see my car in person, it'll be lower than it is now.

I'll have to look around then. Then again, I'd really like some HFP R7's or R5's. Also been considering some TL's again, possibly Type S. A-Spec is a big maybe, but I'd love a set of those


I also changed the oil today

For fun. Actually if I turn the dampening all the way up on the Yellows, I may be able to ride at this height, maybe even a touch lower. Even at this height, I still had 3/4" of the sleeve left...

I have Tein SA, but does that mean I can have my height lowered a little bit by stiffening my dampers all the way??

EDITT: I was misunderstanding. I think you meant to say that you can stay functional with that height with your damper settings all the way up, correct?

Here’s a marginally better one lol.

i still see wheel gap. go lower!!

:rwerd:

I think this looks good. Call me crazy :run: but i think you should go up just a smidge. Like you said, you COULD ride at that height but should you? Or do you want to?

You sir, are crazy :) lol


Today I put my headlights back together on back on the car, output is sharper and more straight now.

Got a couple LED strips in the mail and put them here on the front doors, I tapped them into the doors' courtesy light;

Excuse the disgustingly dirty garage floor lol.

Also did the throttle body coolant bypass .. Very noticeable difference. Throttle response is far greater, don't really know why but the gear shifts are also a bit smoother and the car pulls harder after 3500 rpm. Cheap mod and it cost me under $10 :)
