I remember it taking over 2months.. and this was right when Chase joined Ryan and started doing harness's (IIRC) The harness is decent for a basic wire tuck.. but way overpriced now that I think of it. I borderline feel robbed mainly b/c 2 oem harness's and a fist full of money dont equal up to what I received. But I did not have as much knowledge as I do now, so I blame myself.
When ordering the harness, ecu and jumper I didnt realize there was a difference between Chase and Ryan's business.. I assumed it was ONE company since I only called ONE number and only gave my info to ONE person. I am not saying Ryan isnt doing the right thing and staying away from someone else's work, I just was unaware that certain people did certain things and now that they "broke-up" I have to go through 2 different people to get anything changed. If I knew I had the option when calling I obviously would have had the guy who made the ECU and jumper do the harness as well... Oh well, Live and learn. I have no hard feelings toward Ryan or his company, He does great work, helps the Honda community a great deal and I believe he knows how to operate a business much better. When I am in need of anything related to his business I would go through him again.

ChaseBays has lost my respect.. but I didnt need to read 15pages of childish banter to realize that!


Happy Holidays to Everyone!
Dan- It's my pleasure helping out. I just can't wait to see your finished product. Now I know why you thought it was one person.

The history behind that is Chase was hired to work for Ryan...instead, he came out here and started using Ryan's resources to start up his own business. That's all I'm going to say. Your "tuck" harness was a side job of Chase's under Ryan since Ryan wasn't interested in those back then (only conversion harnesses).

Now that I think of it...that was almost 2 years ago. Damn.

I had a feeling thats where some of there bad blood started. Ryan's better off.. Maybe I can sell this harness and go full Mil-spec through Rywire.. Well see how the pockets feel starting off this new year.
-Dont remind me... that means my car has been riding on jack stands for almost 2years!


As for Christmas and Hospitals... My mother is a full time nurse and Unfortunately is working this Eve, but does have off for Christmas. Most hospitals give you one or the other.. or if you WANT you can always sign up for both. Most employees are getting paid time and a half as well so it really pays to work those days... and Im sure it looks good to there superior as well! You have to remember.. most doctors/nurses/ etc.. enjoy helping people so being there isnt all that bad. Its the janitors and receptionist that hate being there!



Hope everyone enjoys the Holiday and be safe.

Don't get me wrong. We all love the interaction with the people and helping them, but we would rather be with our families on christmas.

The +35's will fill the rear well, the +41's are pretty close to flush on the front. Im not to happy with the pf01's, they are supposedly 12lbs for the 15x7 which isnt an improvement over the rpf1's that are in the 9's. The 15x8 is cool though, although there arent many street tires that would go well on them, I can only think of the Hankook RS3 and the Toyo R1R.

I want to get some Si seats for it or some decent buckets, the car came with some EM1 seats in it and they sit way too high.

Ill be back in tampatown in a couple weeks, lmk if you ever need a hand with anything.

I think it looks pretty good with the teal stripe. Need to find some 20th Anniversary Edition Mugens.

I think it really pops. But damn, it sure was cold outside when I was putting it on. I can't wait to slam your car.

Pixie, I don't like the stripe. I think the color conflicts with the rest of the car...
