Its awesome that he pulls a trailer to the events with the crx. Ive seen miatas pull tire trailers to autox's before. Pretty awesome idea.

Just what the heck is that cable you guys are debating colors about? Looks almost like an aftermarket hood release

Its a throttle cable that Lokar makes.. sells for like 50$ through summit.. not sure how well they work, cant find many reviews.. im sure it works just like oem though, its just a cable. I posted it b/c Im not sure how I feel about the colored ones.. stick to plain ol' polished to avoid contrast.

Gonna order some brake lines this week and 2 longer rear LCA bolts... Probably gonna go with Russell lines. Just hope they work with my Type R calipers.

Anyone know where Rywire gets that black coated line? would like to make my clutch cable as well and use the same material.

Lokar made a whole line of sport compact parts years ago "2003", they didnt seem to take off like they wished and kinda dropped the idea, parts floating around now are left overs. I got a Lokar Oil dipstick specific for a Honda, its a pretty nice piece



Better then melting dipsticks every year

sweet pics blu, love seein odd ball cars/trucks being raced. I love driving my car to the track, and even thought about getting a trailor for it like that dude in the crx. I might get a truck and trailer some day instead though, cause i get worried about breaking something and paying for a hefty tow bill.

Hi all,
I am replacing the axles on my '89 Si and was wondering if there are 23 or 26 splines on the wheel end of the axle? Please lemme know. Thanks.

I believe my wagovan had 26 splines...should be the same as the si. Can a d-series guy confirm?

Yayyy, action shots!

I was leaning more towards 26 splines for the Si. Can someone confirm this, please?

Nice shots Nick... And killer set-up. looks like the truck holds that all well! your mpg get a whopping pulling that compared to your old trailer?

Mean Pic Redzc, prepared for battle!

Looked at an old 1989 fleetwood pace arrow today (Winnebago!) 5grand tag, looks clean.. thinking of selling the daily. Housing and trailer in one! Win Win!

man blu, tracking your daily-driver audi can be terrifying for the wallet. haha


my car did well last night, and it was damp, which was fun for rotation. all my buddies there had LS1 powered somethings pretty much (or some LS variant). a bunch of them broke. sucks. haha

i really really need to clean my car badly. its probably got brake dust rusting on it right now.

when nick and i go to miller motorsports park together someday we'll do a 4 minute cell phone photoshoot. haha

Yeah, but may not have it for long…wife came to me and said she wanted a M5…I married the right woman


But if in time she wants to get serious, then I'll see if I can find a HB
