My photography is a drug front.
Nope, it's my friends who has had about 40 cars since I've known him. His past 3 were: singleturbo 6spd supra, a corvette, and now back to his honda roots in the nsx. I told him I'll buy it once he's ready to sell it to me.
If I get one I'll have to sell all my other cool toys/hobbies. I'd go for a yellow one before black b/c I don't keep cars clean.
My main concern was do I fit & I do. I sat in one w/aftermarket seats and I didn't but the oem's are great. Now to find a bike rack for it

yeah I thought there were khumos to because mine have a simular thread pattern
but yeah my car does swirl a lil.
like the slightest twist of the wheel is instantly felt.
Its kinda weird because it has never felt like that before.
I just had a wheel alignment after the swap and fixed my caster as well.
When I hit one of those off ramp exit heavy turns that say like only 25mph, if I go anywhere over about 30mph it feels like the car is going to slide from under me.

yeah brand new tires
there's also some other factors to take in
-lighter wheels
-better wheel balance
-more weight in the front
I don't know which one adds to that. But it never use to feel that way

james, you need to understand that most of us have been drving bseries ef's for a long time (5years for me) my car handled fine. the weight is minimal in the grand scheme.
your car has the rear alignment out of whack, i can guarantee it. when your alignment was done did they do 2 or 4 wheel?

Do the rear. After I did my DA disc and poly bushing swap it was way out of wack. It took Kyle and I both to get it right. What sway bars do you have?

Re: (vega_box)
I dont know if you have a rear sway bar, but i would def. reccomend getting a matched pair (ie, si's or st's), when i had only the front ST bar the car felt little squirly...
Also get the whole car aligned, after my DA brakes all around the car was way out of spec. Make sure to take it to a rebutable alignment shop that doesnt just "toe and go..."
If you are in the philly area i reccomend mickeys alignment in broomall PA, cheap and the best in the area. ~75$

the funny thing is I actually know how to do a alignment, I just haven't gotten around to doing the rear yet because I have been waiting on getting a nice rear setup and different lowering springs. So hopelfully within the next month some H&R race and rear lower control arms (haven't figured out a brand yet) and Si rear sway bar should help out.
I just didn't know a alignment played that big of a factor. I thought it was just the sway bars.
