Weds Sport 15s up front 16s in the rear. I will have to check the tire size but I think they are 205/45/15 up front and 205/40/16 on the rear. Yeah, some people, on other forums, don't understand that this is a working progress since I got the car this way. Thanks and hopefully it will be a monster when I am finished with it.

i actually really like it..the only thing i find wrong is the hood and underhood..like you said..but your in the process of fixing..i really think its an awesome base to start from

You said you wanted to go to a ram horn and reroute all your piping, then get a new hood.

I sez that teh win!

Nice lookin start youve got there. Dont let it go to waste.

I do too, I just don't like how it looks like it was done with can opener.

Lol, maybe if it was a rusted hood like the VW guys have.

TurboRex90 · 09-14-2009, 03:01 PM

Great Scott, that bitch is HUUUUGEE lol.

I think it would look nasty if you ran metal around this opening and rivet it all so it "cleans it up". It would look aggressive but i do still love OEM looking hondas with hidden power

92stoccord · 09-15-2009, 12:09 PM

You could bend mesh to fit around it, make it at least look a little dirtier in that one spot. Amplify the ugly, contrasted to the rest of the car. It's like when a hot girl hangs out with a fat girl, and you aren't attracted to the fat girl at all, and then you realize she has body odor, and it makes you think the hot girl is that much hotter.

sleeperspecial · 09-15-2009, 01:42 PM

lol, I never thought of it that way. I may have a trade worked up for a ram horn mani and a neukin downpipe. Does that seem like a decent setup? I will try and throw some pics of that setup here in a minute.

sleeperspecial · 09-16-2009, 11:53 PM

What do you guys think of this setup? Does it seem like a decent deal or should I stick with what I have?

E_SolSi · 09-17-2009, 03:03 PM

by whatever means necessary get rid of the shit thats on there

SlushboxTeggy · 09-17-2009, 04:46 PM

I'm with everyone. New manifold, new hood.

That hole is like a third nipple on an otherwise hot naked chick.

INJEN78 · 09-21-2009, 09:37 PM

updates??
and id lick the 3rd nipple on the hot girl

sleeperspecial · 09-22-2009, 01:28 AM

Well, I have two options. I contacted LoveFab because the next turbo I am putting on has a very large exhaust housing and im not too sure about the clearance on a ram horn manifold. Anyways, they said they could lower the exhaust side to allow more room for clearance for $200. Or, I can trade that guy for the ram horn mani. Im still debating on which way to go.

DESPAIN · 09-22-2009, 08:12 AM

get the ram horn mani.
