so baller I've been looking at lenses as of late as well. WANT a 17-55 but holy **** they are going for a grip right now. So I think I will get a 10-22 or a 10-20(sigma). I'd like to get something in that 17-50 range. Maybe a 17-40L as they aren't too bad on a crop body.

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy a caliper or caliper rebuild kit? I noticed a squeaking coming from the rear of my car and today I got out and saw one of the rear calipers smoking.


Slowman - Make sure you post pics when you get those wheels on, those wheels should look great with that Harvard Blue.

Do you have a 4040 valve, or just running the stock Civic prop valve? That can cause the piston to not engage all the way and seize up over time also. Napa makes good stuff just like everyone above said.

used prices still pretty high for the 17-55? i keep reading that it's one of the best Canon crop body lenses out there but i never tried one personally.

i had the 10-22 and it was a great lens! optics were great and i bought i used so i didn't pay too much for it.

i had the 17-40L on a crop body before but didn't like it as it's a bit short for a zoom, and F4 is a bit slow for lower light shooting without a flash. it's amazing on full frame though!

it's not very hard as i installed power steering in my CX recently.

i went with the integra '94+ system which require the rack, the subframe, the u-joint for the column, and all cooling lines and pump.

much easier on a hoist and the steering ratio is tighter than my stock Si one.

I just have the stock Civic prop valve... I always intended to upgrade to the 4040 but forgot all about it.

I jacked the car up today and released the parking brake and tried to turn the hub and it wouldn't budge, but then I went in and pumped the emergency brake and I got it to move, but it still wasn't moving the way it should. I do remember when we went to put the calipers on the piston was froze in the outward position and wouldn't budge, had to compress the piston in with a C-clamp. So I think the caliper was bad/needed to be rebuilt in the first place.
