I'm 90% sure its the same price.

I'm calling back tomorrow and going to get exact pricing with shipping, so once i find out ill post it up here.

those diamond racing ones. 15x8 4" backspace, chrome lip w/ raw center would take 2-3 weeks to make, and shipped within 2 days. for 700$ (thats to Saskatchewan though..)

But these bassett ones strike my interest more though.. being DOT approved, but just dont come in the chrome lip and raw center. either all chrome or all black/silver...

i was lower:

just the full thread tuck, is all i need. The line where thread ends and the side wall starts is even with the fender line is perfect stance for me. If i had a d series i would probably try to go lower, but i want to be able to drive my B16 and pull the car around the corners so i am ok with having a nice ever drop with may be a slightest front rake.

now i need to get new suspension, i think my right front strut blew out.

Anyone have any ideas on what would cause an auto transmission to shift really early under WOT?

could be the automatic shift solenoid, or the vacuum modulator.

i looked into it and it seems the honda's automatic transmissions are notorious for problems.

I live in a fairly large city, there's a few Honda dealerships around. The car was taken to an automotive mechanic who thought the transmission was in good working order :/

I wish I had that problem. Mine shifts really late, slips, the motor revs up and I don't even have to be at full throttle.

The biggest technical downfall of Honda auto's is the integration of an internal filter. No real way to replace it without extensive work. Hence why they tend to be problematic with anything other than typical daily cruising. Add power and watch the lifespan diminish significantly.
