I've been around. A lot going on at home with my family has had me busy. Right now, I'm just tired of it. Want something different. Maybe I'll get another one down the line. I've been looking at TSX 6spd and TL Type S 6spd.

For those of you running Fastline shifters, how the hell do you get the center console back in place? Even with the car in 2nd/4th/R, I can't get the console to move over the shifter (shifter split in two). It almost goes, but just doesn't.. Do I need to drop the shifter down to get the console in?

Holy crap dude say it is not so.

Yeah I've been taking a break from EF's.

Moving houses put a crimp in me working on mine.

Plus also going to IA and being told by all the punk kids that I built my wagon wrong.

Next time I go to IA, I'm hanging a sign on the car saying if you want to give me input on how I built my car you have now just become my bullet target.

Damn Adrian, sucks, but you know, we all get it. Sometimes you just have to, life gets in the way. At least you're staying Honda, TSX sounds awesome.

I recently picked up a 2006 Audi 2.0 avant, now that I have another daily, I can work on bigger projects for the civic.

Do what you have to, but keep playing with cars.

Swede, I would think you may have to leave the console in place when installing

BTW, finally have some project cash - gonna get my 205's mounted up on the X's. Get the Ewing Fins drilled, hopefully get them mounted sometime, lol.

But looking at the car, trying to figure what I may need -

Engine's already been fully rebuilt
New/rebuilt trans from Synchrotech incl clutch and flywheel
GC/Koni combo
Soon doing the rear disc brake swap

Coop, which suspension pieces have you done recently? I'm debating new LCA's (recs?), radiator (full width, recs?), possibly considering upgrading the front calipers as well.

Still considering the RPF1's in 15x8, but I would have to get rid of my fins.

CF hood worth it?

Also seriously considering flares - always loved flared cars - discuss...

Front upper LCA's I went with the MOOG pro line, came with 555 soul ball joints, rear lowers I went with the voodoo13 USA arms. If you PM Function 7 on here they may give you a better deal than most advertised. Function 7 has been posting in GDD lately. Rear upper camber I have a blox. Will probably run this setup for a while as I just read that EF's don't really need a camber kit in front for autocross/roadracing.

Did you do RTA's in the rear disc combo yet?

As for the hood, I think the ZC looks cool, the US front SIR I will be going with for my project though as I need the clearance. If you can get one for cheap than do it, otherwise that's a bit of funds to tie up in something that could go else where like your brake setup.

Cool thanks coop, any recs on where to get the mood stuff? you have voodoo, but mention function 7? Are they the same? The voodoo's come in a little cheaper.

What made you choose the blox? I was thinking of doing the voodoo camber kit with the arms

And yes, doing the whiteline rta bushings with the brake swap

Blox arms were free. I have voodoo yes. Voodoo is 6061 and function is 7075, both use energy bushings. I bought the moog stuff through rockauto. Just use a 5% discount when you order, also some stuff on closeout is just a different box. If getting both vooodoo parts the matching pieces should be fine. Check ur pm.
