thanks dude.. i just read you and your dads again the other day..looked great

 

Just picked it up, :Thumbup: Hot sauce, that pcm is the **** with that crx build. glad you are still with us.


Just tried to install and ek armrest, im not htat happy with my arm nailing it when i hit 2nd gear. Guess im going back to the stock armrestlessness

 

HI everybody!!

 

Thanks man, and yeah its a good issue. May make myself a build thread even though im more than half way done putting the car together.

Im not a fan of any armrest in an EF, sh*t they dont even come with cup holders!

 

Oem armrest . Nice and low key, perfect fit and finish. Its also nice for the storage space since my glove box is filled with gauges.

 

Eh, i was bored looking for something cheap to do to keep me busy...

 

I love my Oem armrest!

Question, is anyone running a zydine ecu?? I think mine might be going out... Sometimes in the crx when I start it, it will only rev to 2k and will bounce like its hitting the rev limiter...

 

Its not the oem its an ek i got for 30 bucks bnib. That sounds like a dissy issue. I had one not to long ago. When it revs to 2k and bounces does the tach jump around? If so that could be a icm or zdyne has a cold idle limiter.

 

Its a new dizzy. The tach just goes to 2 and then back down like it would off normal rev.

 

and CELs? Check your thermostat and motor grounds.

 

Yeah I have IAT. When I reset the ecu everything is ok.

Do you think it could be telling the ecu is super cold and then thats why it stops at 2k?? i havent tried letting it sit and warm up... Should I maybe try that if/ when it does it again?

 

You guys with the OEM armrests...does it move side to side? Mine does. There is no way to secure the console in the rear to keep it from doing it....or am I missing something?

 

They are supposed to come with metal mounting pieces that you screw it into, but mine didnt have them. So I just screwed the arm rest right in the e-brake cover.

 

Thats what I did also. I used extra interior screws I had and put one at each corner of the arm rest into the e-brake cover. Do you have problems with the little nuts/bolts holding the top and bottom halves together coming loose and/or falling out? I have to tighten mine up about twice a year...

 

i need to get me an armrest someday!

 

I got my armrest bnib and I recall it coming with some kind of bracket. Mine is pretty sturdy, which is pretty un-EF like, lol.

 

i like my DC armrest and cup holders

 

my oem armrest is loose as well, glad its not just mine

 

I don't know about mine coming loose, only had it in for about 2 weeks. haha

 

not so much loose, just doesnt feel sturdy

 

i cant have a arm rest cause of my fat boy seat

 

I need a fat boy seat.

 

I think im going to get a recaro pole pos. Seems to fit me well. Im not FAT but im not a twig (6'2 235lbs size 36")

 

I'm 5'11" 225 with a 38" waist

 

im 6'4" 280. i have a corbeau forza II wide version. and it fits perfect.
