Default Getting Antsy!

I would just like to say Friday is when I get my teg RS back with a fresh JDM GSR motor in it. Friday is not coming fast enough. :run:

I bought Type-R carbon interior shit for it the day before the motor blew. Next up: Short Shifter w/ Skunk2 weighted knob, Carbon Fiber Hood, AEM Cam Gears, AEM Pullies, MSD Ignition w/ Nology wires. Oh yeah.. and LoJack biiiitz. :joshers:

I need some seriously cheap braces. Front & Rear if anyone has something they wanna get off their porch.

:hugglez:

I hear MSD = waste of time until way longer down the road... spend it on something else... congrats on the motor upgrade though.

Then maybe I'll go after some DC Headers. I hear ceramic is the way to go. Any input?

DC's ehaders have a good reputation, but I wouldn't bother if you plan on going turbo or anything, because then you'll have to replace it.
If you plan on doing it way down the road or something though, buy it, and then sell it used when you're ready to boost..

I don't have the necessary equipment and I'm too reliant on my vehicle to take a chance at getting something wrong. Plus, the work is guaranteed.

Carbon fiber just looks cool. Why would anyone need a CF hood?? Barring 8/- second drag, the proper answer is noone. I just like the contrast between the white paint and black carbon. Painting my hood black would look like a salvage yard ghetto cruiser.

I just wanna put this out there while I'm on the subject of fugly paint (or lack thereof). I'm sick of seeing primered Hondas. For Christ's sake PAINT THE FUCKER ALREADY.
