happy turkey day squad!

 

kiloda9 what are the specs on those rims.

 

I hear ya on the research. I wanted to start by asking here because I figured with so many of us having to be searching for something similar, I could get pointed in the right direction before I went out and started spending my money. I like the setup I have now I just don't know if I feel like putting the money out to finish it or if I should find a vtec head and do the LS/Vtec setup for the extra flow.

It's kinda like I'm so close to finishing this one that I want to just get it done but I know that Vtec would be such a fun thing to drive.....And I'm very sad to admit this but...I have yet to drive any car that hits Vtec. I'm so ashamed

 

found the squad again!

 

Well, my step mom backed out with her 04 trailblazer and didnt see my DA. Results:

 

That sucks. It looks like the rad support might be bent. Get one thing fixed and something else happens

 

Do the 1pc headlights cancel out the whole 3pc setup? like the brackets that hold the headlight and the foglight need to get taken out and the 1pc just fits in?
and what is the rad support?

 

rad support = Radiator Support
The bar like thing that goes from the left fender to the right and it holds on your headlights, radiator, and the bumper support and front bumper.

If that is bend then the whole front end will not line up properly. In most cases if the insurance company see's the radiator support is bend and needs to be replaced they will just total the car out. It sucks but I would take it to a body shop and see what they say if it is bent or not. Good Luck man!

 

so quick question...for those of you who are running after market rear lower control arms, what are you running that allows you to keep the sway bar? the only ones i am finding do not have the mounting location for the sway bar and i kinda need it since i just got the suspension techniques sway bars....

 

Yeah, just take off the whole brackets. The one piece should fit in perfectly.

 

I am running Wicked Racing LCA's on my DA that have mount locations and have Skunk2 on my DC that has 3 different locations

 

wicked racing...dont think i've heard of them. how do you like them? i'll have to research them. once i actually had time to search last night i saw the skunk2's have 3 locations. was just hoping to find something cheaper than 200 bucks, but oh well.

 

I have Skunk 2 LCA's and they have the holes for the Sway bar.
LoL don't know what brand you are looking at but everyone should have the holes.

 

blox lca's dont have them. kinda what i was hoping to get since they are a lil cheaper in price, but no luck

 

so the housing that hold the fog light, and the headlight(their black colored, and bolted onto the support) those come out as well? and the 1pc just bolts onto the rad support?

 

looks like im going with skunk2's...just looked at wicked's website and they want 300 and the pics they had did not show a mounting point for the sway bar

 

soleJDM and Herb- Just ordered some 1pc headlights :thumbsup:

 

i've heard not so good things about the blox.

 

yeah i have heard somethings too.. but what do you expect with a cheap knockoff?

 

what ones did you get?

 

probably the jdm ones haha. how much did you pick them up for ??

 

haha i didn't know, he was talking about the black housed ebay ones and the jdm ones..

B18IntegraLS: did you figure out if your rad support is bent?

 

damn, theres currently an arguement going on about having "fake" rims that are low offset in the low offset rim thread. LOL. apparently this guy is telling me people have to be ballin to own a honda. /laugh

 

b18integrals. if your radiator support IS bent it shouldnt be too much to fix. here's how mine was

it was $350 to get straightened out

 

haha real vs knockoff parts.. that is always a good topic to have some intense debating going on. haha

what did you hit?
