Adam, too much auto-x finally caught up with the steering rack so that went, and it's been burning oil for quite sometime now, ive been building a LS/VTEC for it, and i recently purchased a ruckus for daily driving, so now i have the time to down the car and give it its much needed TLC, probably redo bushings while im replacing everthing, and i picked up some hardrace rear trail arm bushings also, so it'll get a undercar makeover, im bad with taking pictures of the stuff im working on but ill try my best to get some since id like to show what im doing and have some of you guys state your opinions on it, its nice to have an extra set of eyes, also im selling my wing if you guys are interested let me know, im eager to sell since i need to finish my engine, thanks

That sounds good, Ace. I just finished covering the Civic back up. I've had it stored, but took it out today for Eibach Summer Nights. It was a great meet. Good turn out, good cars, good crowd. I've been trying to have more fun with my cars and trying to focus less on people. People let you down, cars never do. 
I'll post up some pics a little later.
Thanks for the invite, Lance! I had a blast. It was great seeing you, too, Joelzy. It's been a while. Same for you, Larry! I hope everyone had a great weekend, as I did.

hi all 
just thought i'd pop in and say hello...i miss talking to some of you...been soo busy with work...hope all goes well with you all.
btw, is anyone interested in some OEM JDM Sedan side mirror base plates? i have a pair that i bought used and I dont have time to hunt for mirrors or anything...these are the plates you'd need for aftermarket mirrors (spoon, vision, f1-style). they have 2 holes drilled on each side, but those can be filled in or covered if you end up putting the spoon mirrors on. asking 75 shipped for the pair. i'll get pics to anyone who's interested.

Looked like a nice meet!
The coilovers are great. Only complaint is that the fronts are too low 
I'm at 0 finger gap, with 3-4 turns of preloading the spring. I could lower it another 3" and still have room to spare. As for the back...I'm almost as low as it goes and it's not quite as low as I hoped for.
Aside from ride height, they ride amazing. I'm using 350F/350R springs and the shocks match it very well. Stiff but not bouncy at all, I haven't bottomed out yet for the price, definitely one of the best setups for your buck. P.s. customer service is awesome!
