You can still buy brand new. they are like 800-1200 depending on who is selling it. Rhett has one for sell. I'll see if I can find his thread.

You got a pm comin your way on that climate control. Mine's in about 40000 pieces.

Sorry about the nose mask dude. CWBETB had first dibbs. I think he just wanted the hood piece and not the bumper cover, but feel free to bug him once I finally get it shipped out. I'm hella busy.

which hood is this again? VIS right? where'd you buy it from?


i want to ride in a kswap crx. they still dont' look right but i bet it's a fun drive.

Good lord those Mugen VC's are a waste of money!

My 250 miles are 90% highway. I have gotten 34mpg out of it once. I have a itr tranny with a 4.4 fd tho. But still I'm not even at 4500rpm at 80mph.

Wow congrats James saw the thread, it looks good, come a long way man. So is it officially BAR legal now?

I just got my rear suspension in last nite and was looking at my rear lower control arms - I was like WTF? it looked like one was bent, then I saw the other side and realized both were bent the exact same way, didnt look damaged, but I never knew they were bent from the factory? It's an 89 si btw.

Either way, everything was okay, and the car looks good dropped on the black RB's and beat paint, lol. I am actually very happy with how it's coming along.

Even though James gave me a way to make the latch work, I may just do some aero latches anyway...not sure yet. I'll try to post some pics.

No, they said i had an exhaust leak and needed to come back. But other then that I passed visual. I just needed to change my fuel regulator and make sure my hose coming from the VC to the intake was clamped. But they didn't bother putting it on the rollers because of the leak.
