what????
how does removing vacuum lines do anything good?
running 91 octain will make the results worse.
the sedan steering wheel looks much better then the one in the after pictures..

i as well like the before steering wheel.
also like the climate control being stock, unless it was cracked or something along those lines
and get yourself a speedo with a tach.
other than that it looks good and i must say good job
now post up pics after it sits in the sun and the paint cracks/fades

i really like it, i would like to see the headliner. here is a couple of knitpicks, i dont like the shift **** and i don't like the stock steering wheel. but over all really nice.
i am definitely changing the wheel 100%, i wanted a newer stock honda wheel, a fat one with a push horn instead of button..i am also going to be changing the **** it is temporary jsut so i can drive the dam thing..lol this thing is still a working progress. but i want this thing to look clean and NOT flashy and ricey...just a nice stock look but completely different from Oem..
i had already installed a digital tach where the vent is on the drivers side, i modified the vent so it fits clean and flush...i will post pics of that as well, dont know why i didnt lol
the paint shouldnt crack at all it wasnt a normal spray can it was vinyl dye so it should hold on for a bit.
the seat: i had to order seat brackets, and modify those seat brackets to fit these seats, they were a bitch...
i will get pics of the black overhead as well....

Some of those seats came with my car. The only difference was the stiching was red. I tried for about an hour to install them and figured stock was fine for me.

well i took everything out of the car, it was completely gutted...so i had a chance to use plastic paint of plastic pieces and vinyl dye of the vinyl pieces...simple...it is ligit too it looks stock, not like a crappy paint job...
what are your emission readings? A quick and easy way to check your catalytic converter is to get under the car and bang on it, you should not hear anything move. If you do hear **** in there then most likely the contents inside have broken up therefore it clogs your exhaust system causing a missfire/bad gas mileage and so on. Pay reallly close attention when your bangin on it because rocks/debree can get inside the heat shield and make it seem like material has broken down inside the cat, yet its just inside the heat shield. Good luck
