Watch out taking those on the streets (if you ever do) That's not legal in Va.
Nice find though!

NRG Slim hub, quick release, and lock.

Got it from Autoworks. He's got it for cheaper than some other sellers on here have it for.

The wheel I got from eBay for $31 shipped. It's a knockoff, obviously, but I was amazed with the quality. The wheel itself is very nice, sturdy, and light. The only real problem is that the screws that came with it all stripped pretty thoroughly when I tightened them down. Oh well.






Hell yeah it's a Mugen.

I have the same setup from my eg. MY eg got wacked a few months back, and i put the setup on my ef sedan. The only thing i do not like about the setup it the white horn plastic peace. I take it you hAve not found a way to make this look alot cleaner?

They will never see the street. They are so light it ain't even funny. They will be AWESOME track rims. I just thought it would be funny to take some pix before I dismount these tires and slap on some slicks.

I haven't tried to find a way yet. I probably won't. I'm actually having some trouble with it and am currently talking to NRG.

It's near dinwiddie county, so everyone calls it that. It's actually called Virginia Motorsports Park.

Update on my wiring situation: I installed the Odyssey battery tonight and made some new power and ground wires. Looks clean as hell, and a helluva lot lighter.

Lol. Well, the battery wiring is clean, and that's it.

Once I get my gauge plate, I will wire in the gauges and redo the ENTIRE harness. Then it will all be clean as hell.

Got word that the gauge plate should be on it's way soon.

I also got a quote for all the OEM stuff I need for my motor build. $575.

On majestic it was $600, and then my discount at Honda was only $25 less?

Oh well. Few more weeks and I'll take this bitch to the machine shop.
