Brice is actually one of the nicest guys I know.

It's not his fault other ppl can't handle unbiased comments

Thanks everyone for the love! I can't wait to keep getting parts in.

Here is my header which I picked up for cheap.




I'll try and shine up this weekend. Not sure if any shops in town do high quality polishing.

This bnib bra showed up to thanks to HandA-Accessories.com

It's actually our Recycling bin.

I'm hoping to finish my build before yours. Shouldn't be too hard.

I'll measure. I'm not sure it's 2.5. It might be 60mm aka 2.3X.

I do plan on keeping this a long time. My family unit won't be getting any smaller.

Your stable reminds me of my own. Black AP1 and a 6th Gen civic! Always been a fan of your builds. Wish I can afford some MF10's doe.

2.5 would be ideal w/ matching exhaust system so u can open up the newly built motor.

What trans are planning to get? I loved the close gears on the b16 trans in my old hatch but, on the highway it was hell. The gsr trans in my db8 was slightly better but,still annoying at over 65mph.

I was looking for a b16 but if a well priced gsr fell into my lap, I wouldn't turn it away. This isn't a daily driven car as I drive the MDX the most but it's driven very often.

Found a rareish set of 99-00 EDM Valeo headlights. If you can tell by the labels, they say Made in France.



Very similar to CTR headlights but without the gunmetal hue. They don't have reflectors like US headlights and do have city lights. Can't wait to install them.



Stand by for more updates.
