The bits are all coming together. My $65 Si seats and $35 Integra center console. Tach cluster is here tommorow I hope. Waiting for a few little goodies for the center console (Boot, blank, holster. . . .etc) and gotta find someone to patch up the seat. I think I did all right.

Yesterday I put on my ST sway bar. Damn, night and day. This thing handles fricking well. It's so much fun to get around.



Recently, I did some trading with a car electronics buddy and got an alarm, electric locks and some stereo work. I now have a sedan rear door handle on my passenger door. Looks pretty slick.



Just waiting for my buddy to send the Porsche tip. I've also gotta figure out how I want to recover my driver's Si seat. I am thinkin OE cover, but I've gotta save up for that. My VR6 bumper spoiler is on it's way. That's gonna look badass.

I think it's gonna look badass. Should be here today with a majority of my center console parts.

I'm not doing the cluster, I am doing the console. Pics as soon as the rest of the stuff comes in. Spoiler just came in FYI, here's the part numbers for everyone.

So, here's the cluster. It was only 500 miles over what I had at the time, worked great. 10 minute job. Very easy.



Here's the center console that came from the factory -



I installed my Integra console and passenger side Si seat tonight. I need to recover my driver's one soon. They are so damn comfortable.




I treated it with some shoe die first then wiped it down with Armor All. I think it looks damn good and it's functional as all hell. The arm rest cubby has a perfect mounting spot for my 380. Cup holder too! Should be neat. It's not made for the car, so there are gaps. Eventually I will do something about that.

Now, I gotta mount that spoiler.

Was there any trimming required to fit the VR lip? It looks fantastic!

It has came away, I really like it. No modifcation I have done to this car has ruined the fuel economy, besides the intake pipe and cone filter, which came off after one tank. Stock airbox is the way to go.

It's going to ride just as bad if you put lower springs on KYB GR2's. I am using KYB AGX's. They are made for lowering springs & have dampening adjusting. GR2's are for gramma and grampa in their Camry.

Well, I mean, I will get another car (thinkin Tacoma or E30 325is) and make this car a Auto-X beast. Doing all my motor swap research now, savin my pennies too. No harm.
