Did you check the driveline/axles? Is the engine actually jumpy, or does it feel that way from in the car? Did you check your mounts?</TD></TR></TABLE>
it's a code 9 and a 17. CYP and VSS. VSS works, so I have no clue why thats on(I'm using a 94 gsr cluster), the cyp sensor has been on for a month now, and the problem just started a couple days ago.
The jumping is only something I can feel while driving the car. I can't replicate it sitting still or revving it from the throttle body. All mounts look fine. the jumping feels like its in the driver-front wheel. You can feel the bump pretty hard in the floor pan and steering wheel. What makes it even more confusing is that its intermittent.

i just got an etd bar and im liking it so far and it was only like 250 dollars. but people have negative things to say about most bars except fullrace, so risk it with the other brands or bend over for fullrace.

Re: (jdm_dc_fan)
I have had my ETD bar on the car for over a year with no issues. I daily drive it and take it autocrossing a couple times a month, and it has held up perfectly fine. And it def made a huge difference in the way the car feels.

Ive seen a few hondas with a bad wheel bearing(s) in the front do a violent thumping while driving. You could feel it like crazy thru the floor.
Check your hubs for play.

I hear ya, the old editors and writers were much better. I went to the bookstore last night and read the article. Not suprisingly the magazine was skinnier than ever and loaded with crap

Re: (Chronicsinners)
Maybe I'm biased towards SCC because I keep paying for it! I don't know, I think the articles are still good though. Pretty decent tech stuff, and I've learned alot about suspension set up from it. I'm just sick of the high end evo's and sti's.
Anybody have any pictures showing the battery relocated to the rear in a hatch, but retaining the spare tire? Oh, with the interior in? Kind of random, but I'm looking for ideas.

Whats was your mount question?</TD></TR></TABLE>
I'm just trying to keep my OEM cross member w/ whatever new mounts I get. I already notched it a bit so it could clear my 4-1.
Call my old fashion but I jus prefer OEM cross member over traction bar

I call that cheap, because it's why I'm keeping mine. But your mounts probably mount the motor the furthest back of all of them. So if you're worried about clearance, just keep your mounts. Or get a 4-2-1

This sh*t kills me. It's the same at every hooters...they rarely have hOOters! I go there for three things; Wings, Sangria, and boobies.
If you're in the Yay Area, don't go to the Fremont one...unless asian chicks with no ***** is your thing (Ryan).

Yeah, well, I've been to the Hooter's in your city. So take that! There was a nasty chick (one of a many) at the Hooters here in Madison that we called Chewbacca. She litterally had more arm hair than me.
I used to live 2 minutes walking distance from that place
