Okay guys, sorry for the gay poll but I wanted your opinion on these items. I'm done souping up my car for now (bolt-ons) and I'm itching to buy more stuff... I chose these items to be safer on the road.

I can't decide between the two! HID headlights will allow me to see better at night and thus be safer, but the steering wheel is smaller in radius so it will allow me to turn quicker to avoid an accident.

What do you guys think?

 

Steering Wheel, which we should have got in all USDM R's!

 

haha nice rationale, I like how you worked them both into making driving more safe for you

you have the JDM front end? if so I say go for the dizzles. if not, stick with the steering wheel. dont forget the neon hood squirters!!

stunna

 

bwahaha. yeah, all of my modifications somehow make their way into the safety category (only way to get gf's approval).

I have the USDM front, I want to get the JDM one a long way down the line (when they're a dime a dozen and everybody's selling their cars cause they want Sti's, EVO's and what not...) and if I get that, I would get the JDM HID housings.

 

Girlfriend's approval? Oh God. Please....

Get what you want, you aren't married. At your age, girlfriends shouldn't be running your life. Bossy ones gots to go....

i voted for HID ..

i dont think JDM streering wheel is any better funtional than usdm ITR wheels

HID which REALLY works.

you will be happy with it.

LOVING my HID

 

lol, I've been with her for 4 years and I live with her so all of my financial decisions are discussed with her out of courtesy. I exagerrated about her approval

 

 

both if you can

i have both and i feel real safe haha

 

I can't have both.. I can only get one or the other!

Okay guys, I'm going to Ontario Mills right now to sell my ITR Rear seats to honda-tech member pr0n (lovely name). If I don't come back in a couple of hours, please call the police cause I'm probably getting raped. If you need to call me, B2FiNiTY has my pcs phone number.

HID because the value and purpose is there.

 

HIDizies! although i chose the wheel the first time around. lol

 

oh yea....let me know if u want McChullochs. i have a hook up.

 

Alright, I made it home safely hehe. I'm $220 richer and ITR rear seats poorer.

What are McChullochs?

 

i have put both on my ek in the past 6 mos, and i did the wheel first 'cause I found a good deal. in hindsight, i'm glad i did it that way. I really enjoy the steering wheel a lot. Get the wheel, then get HID's when you do your new front.

 

Personally, I find NO fault with the stock headlights. Every time I drive another car at night, I find myself wishing for my ITR's lights.

HIDs = even more attention from cops and thieves

I'm sure the HIDs are nice, but if it ain't broke... (the oversized steering wheel, however...)

 

Try driving a BMW or a S2000 at night, and let us know if you still feel the same way about your ITR lights.

EDIT: Make sure it's not some lame base model BMW w/o HIDs though.

 

I'm just saying that I've never been in a situation where the stock lights were not up to the task.

For me, the smaller wheel would be the more functional and enjoyable of the two choices.

 

Me either.

I think people really get HIDs because they look "cool," despite whatever they say to the contrary.

I'd say save the money for a clutch/flywheel upgrade later on. Best money I ever spent on my car.

 

So true. I drove a CL for a week and loved it, I went back to my car and couldn't tell if the lights were on. The headlights are probably my biggest complaint about the car.

 

I say the HID's, would'nt the JDM ITR SRS be more expensive than other aftermarket steering wheels available?

The JDM ITR SRS would be great to come with the factory, but if without, it's still not worth buying it. I say HID'S

 

If you get the steering wheel, what happens to your stock cruise control switch?

 

[sarcasm]Damn, forgot about the cruise control![/sarcasm].

I have an ITR and they dont come with CC.

When I used to valet cars man, Lexus LS430, BMW's, and infiniti had the best HID headlights! When I drive on the freeway and a high class car cruises to the lane next to me or behind me (especially an SUV) I can see their light powering over mine in intensitiy and coverage.... oooh I love them, anyway, back to the subject... I still can't decide!

 

Wait for those pics and I found who "he" is

 

WTF are you talking about D?
