^ not sure if i follow. i actually sold the oem itr, that is a replica i painted myself.

knag: it was for many reasons. a few were: had a leaking seal in one wheel, needed money for school and a lot of court fees, got slapped with 4 tickets and was forced to bring the car back to stock to get my license plates back. (cop took them). it was well before i wanted to and I never had my Canibeat feature after failing 2 times on the way to the shoot which is what im most pissed about. cause thatll never happen again, well at least for a long time.

I know it's a replica. I'm saying to get an oem lip. You sold an oem itr lip to buy a replica?

i sold it because i needed money, and could care less about aesthetics to be honest. looking back, yea i'd like a oem lip. but it really doesnt bother me as it almost looks oem. i want a 94-97 front end anyways with si-vtec lip. that will be in the works when im home from school

(moved for the new page)

Wheels: GSR Blades
Specs: 15x6 +45
Tire specs: 205/50/16 khumos and toyos
Suspension setup: Ground Control/Bilstein struts
Camber specs: approx. -2.5
Jack Point Measurement:
a lot, haven't measured since new stance
Additional comments: the car rides great, rear struts are blown and need replacing so for the time being the rear is bouncy some. but cant go wrong with GC coils. no rubbing at all. have 1 finger gap all around. good for a solid dd
Overall rating of the setup: 8, only because of blown rear struts.

@ justin. Thanks for the update and sorry you had to go through all that bro. I hope you find yourself well and are enjoying school and life. You will build many more dope rides in the long lifetime ahead of you. Sheesh, I am 45 and still enjoying the honda scene, lol.

Wheels: RacingHart typeC
Specs: 16x7 +35
Tire specs: 205/50/16 kuhmo AST & various tires, all four are different brand lmao
Suspension setup: eBay coilovers all the way down with 1 perch removed & tokico "blue" shocks
Camber specs: approx. front is stock kit, rear Ksport camber kit with a couple degrees, dont by eye.
Additional comments: car rides okay, good enough for me to drive around the past 2.5 years with the same suspension setup, but it's getting on its last legs, starting to feel a little bounce so i'm going to need to replace the dampers soon.
Overall rating of the setup: 6/10, wheels are awesome, my suspension setup needs to be upgraded, waiting for cash to buy Ksport coilovers, front camber kits & new wheels...

Wheels: Miro Stp1
Specs (i.e. size, width, offsets): 16x9 +15 front +15 rear
Tire specs: 205/40/16 Dunlop Direzza Dz101
Suspension setup: Koni yellows + Ground Control sleeves
Camber specs: (-3.8) front (-4.2) rear
Jack Point Measurement (from ground): No idea
Additional comments about your setup: My set-up is exactly where I wanted to be "Flush/Fitted", the only problem I am having is my shock towers are getting beat up. Extending them is definitely a possibility in the future. Other than that, no rubbing or tires getting chewed up. Both front and rear fenders are rolled, no pull.

I like the car when I picture it without the wheels and not because they are bright pink either. To each his own I guess.

Jack Point Measurement (from ground): Unsure
Additional comments about your setup: Rear fenders rolled, rear bar trimmed, rear bar mounting point relocated. Front fender tabs bent back. This is my daily setup

I am curious as to what you mean by "rear bar trimmed" and "rear bar mounting point relocated?" I am assuming you mean the rear anti-sway bar. Why was that necessary? I am interested in running a similar setup (wheel diameter, width, offset, etc.), but am curious why trimming and relocating the "rear bar" was necessary. I run a 22mm rear anti-sway bar.
