    Need feedback plz

    Found a few things on ebay, need to know what u guys think.

    Speed Chip

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=42604

    She increase your speed up to 20 hp, not bad for only 2 bucks.
    This is a resistor that will plug into your AIT(air intake temp) sensor and modify your AIR/Fuel ratio and slightly change your engine timing to run stronger and with increased power. I dunno, 20hp for 2 bucks, sounds too good to be true.

    Lowering Springs

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33582

    For $40 american, think there worth gettin?? Im not down with spending $400 - $600 on coil overs right now.

    Clear corner lights

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33708

    Ground Wiring Kit

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

    Its for the 4th, I cant see how it wouldnt work on a 3rd gen...

    Speed Chip - Not even worth the time it took to look at it. Just a 25 cent resistor.

    Lowering springs - you get what you pay for. Im guessing they'll ride REALLY rough due to high spring rate

    Clear corner lights - never seen em before. look OK for clear corner lights. . . .

    Ground wire kit - the only way i could see it not working is the length of the wires

    That chip is complete crap. Those springs are pretty stiff, it'll give you a bouncy ride unless you get the correct shocks to counteract them. Im not a fan of the clear corner light, I perfer the JDM ones but thats just my personal preferance. That grounding kit is not a genuine Mugen part, I would not buy it out of respect for Honda. I would get another brand. Good luck with whatever you do.

    the clear corners are kinda retarded IMO, but they'd look pretty sick if they were painted amber. JDM y0!

    Ya, I think there is. Id like to see what it looks like, b4 would go call him, and have him come out to install it. Somebody I know has it, and just said the mugen one looks better.

    ebay is the best place to find them, or this board.
    I don't see why they would be illegal, you should check your local laws if you are skeptical.

    Check your laws.
    I have never had a problem, but in South Carolina anything goes.

    Hey bc86
    Those springs are nice. I bought a set bout a month ago, been riden em for bout 2 weeks and they're nice. They don't have a high spring rate at all and aren't very stiff.
    Worth the money if you're lookin for a nice drop.

    hey bc86, that resistor not gonna work.

    the ground wiring kit, it would be cheaper if you went to menard's or home depot.
    but i had some 4 guage wiring laying around, and i did that, the resistance was pratically .01-.02 ohm's.
    and the result's were a big difference, light did'nt dim when the system hit a bass note.
    throttle was more responsive(the coil made it hella better).
    idle was smoother to.

    i say make your own and not buy that, you'll save yourself some money, and that's probably like a 8 or a 12 gause or something.
