Chris! Welcome back man, long time no see. Did you get the txt I sent you the other day? Glad to see you're still making progress, and that you got the mirrors working and installed.

What's going on in the center console area?

How difficult was it to put the 'lude seats in your car?

Definitely like the ram-air thing. In theory and design it looks like it'll work alright. How's that fuel pump working out? I definitely like the wheels even though they're only 13", they do look good and should shine up nice.

Do you think you're going to end up using that spoiler on it? Just curious, no other reason for asking.

Let's catch up soon enough. Did you dad tell you the gold nugget DX coupe just across from Wolf park isn't there anymore? :dunno:

I dont think they're anything special. From what I remember I saw them in the Accord Catalog someone posted. They're just another type of wheel offered. I also believe they came on civics. I wouldnt get rid of them completely if youre going to get new rims. I did that...and kinda regret it as I now need a set of steelies to take the rims i have on my car off to sell :(

sorry about the crappy pics but i only have a cell phone.
i moved the vacuum box because i think it gives the compartment a cleaner look because i could hide most of the vacuum lines. also it gives me a place to move my battery to

also on the pinch fork mod you will need to cut off the little tab off the shock so it sits flush.

thats weird because i diddnt touch the shock but both sides sit flush. the only problem i have is the passenger side sits a little higher than the drivers side but its not noticeable.

the lilttle alignment peg on the shock hit the bolt i was trying to put in...so thats why we had to cut it off

im going to be putting it on my car within the next month hopefully and if the testing goes well i might start producing these. for all of you who do not know this is an adjustable cam gear. the center is aluminum and the outside is the stock cam gear. this one has 10 degrees of adjustability but more can be added, or more can be taken away because each one will be hand made there will be room for options.
