got a pretty good deal on this wheel. so i decided to go with it. im only gonna use it for track events or the strip. it has good grip.

*and remember, this is MY wheel, not yours*



the interior is dirty for a reason.

 

Wow, cool, looks like a arcade game

 

lol

 

yeah man stop on by. hopefully this weekend. bring some peeps cuz im still having probs with the car. maybe one of us will figure it out.

 

nice

 

You know your short shifter is on backwards?

 

hahahahahahahah

 

lol, yes i know. i like it tilted that way at an angle,.. i was waiting for someone to mention it.

You know... if you remove one of the A's the H AND e you get APC!
I think the RED button fires the NOS seeking sidewinder rockets.
Hehehe - just kidding. Interesting.

so you havea b18c5 in a gsr?

 

Looks pretty sweeeet and is certainly something 'different'..... plus it sort of matches your exterior colour?!

 

HAHAHAHAH

 

lol... APC.. haha.

its a ls/vtec in a 2000 LS. it has more problems than horsepower right now. just trying to figure some stuff out.

Function over form.

If it does what you want it to, no matter what it looks like.

Why do you like the shifter backwards? *simple curiousity*

 

for some reason i like for example the mustang shifters and how they angle front and down type of deal. just a way of gripping it i guess. more towards the front of the car. i know, it sounds confusin.

i have 2 stock shifters ima mess around with and try to heat them and bend them. but i dont know, the metal could get weak and thats trouble.

i havnt really driven the car with the shifter "backwards" yet. ive sat in it and it does the job. when i get to shifting, i will see. perhaps i might switch back if it gets tooo weird

I know what you mean about the Mustang shifters, I kind of like how they sit too. I don't think having a backwards shifter is going to give you the Mustang feel when you're actually driving the car. *shrug*

 

heh-heh.

I love Mustangs and I've always hated they way the shifters were positioned. Personal preference thing.

 

I hate Mustangs but liked the shifters

 

lol.... good you guys understand. the way they are positioned. haha thats it. so i dont know, i wanted to see what kind of feel backwards has. as far as i know, its the same throw pattern or whatever its called, so i wont be messing any gears up.

 

if you cut off the black part of the wheel,
it'll look like some space ship wheel lol

 

what about reach on the shifter? Does that make it hard to get to when driving? I always thought the stock shifter was just a little too far away, seems this would make it worse (unless you're tall and have long arms)

 

i like to sit up close to the wheel for some reason. i dont like to be "stunnafied" and be leaning back. the reach isnt bad, but like i said, i havnt taken the car on the raods yet for some real driving so i havnt really tried it.

 

Why so messy? Theft deterrent?

 

actually its a theft recovery. i swapped a motor in it. ive just been doing lots of work inside the car. i have lots of empty boxes from mufflers, to steering wheels. lots of scrap wires from jumping the service connector. i keep loosing them. stuff just adds up.

the car has been driven once only. put like 1 mile on it. the other 9 are from when put it in gear to break it in on jack stands.
