well me and the wife went to see her newly wed friends in the sol. it was a 500 mile round trip. it was great taking the car but the weather wasnt as nice as predicted. it was suppose to be 60s and on the way up was 30s with snow flurries. also on the way up found out the cruise stopped working

anyone have any problems of the upper control arms making contact with the inner fenders? i popped the hood to check oil and noticed my paint is chipped like it was hit by the arms? i got about 32mpg with the ole 157K vtec doing 80+ the whole trip with 4.7 fd itr trans. i think i may go back to the 4.4 b16 and get the ls 5th gearset installed to better my fuel savings on longer drives. sol did glide so smoot with the omnipower 10k/8k setup at 105mph
cant wait to work on the sol again. i need some better seats too lol

well, went from this:


to this(huge improvement IMO):

unless you meant why the gap for the panels all look way off and that's because the bumper was just placed on the bumper support and not installed...just sitting on the support
EDIT:
passed macho on the ***** list

i'd figure so but never read about it. my front tires just almost tuck. hmm time to upgrade again to 12k/10k combo?? hmm time will tell but love the ride for now. i'd just hate to spray the bay but crack the paint. i need to go ahead and order me some itr front calipers and 4x100 prelude rotors soon to see if they will fit my SiR wheels.

Yes, often. Worst one ever was messin around with this guy on a backroad, then we looked ahead and saw raised train tracks!!! I hit a 5 foot ramp doing 85 (braked down to that, too
) and it was not good when I hit the ground on the other side
Street racing is bad, kids
