I really don't know if I can...but my back hurts when I sit in the seats...They really suck!!!...
oh...and my windshield is cracked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! S.O.B. I'm sooo pissed....Now I gotta get that fixed...Hopefully I can just get the crack sealed and fixed rather than replace the whole thing...
Daaaammmmit!!!

I love my seats [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG] I was so used to driving my Sonoma and my back would start hurting after 5 minutes of driving. Now I am in heaven with my Civic seats. LOL I will keep my eye open for seats.
yea i was used to the seat in my 98 Nissan Pathfinder.. had lumbar support, but the seats were soo hard! i have a bad back from playin football n hockey, so it was horrible.. but the civic seats are nice n soft. my back likes it
but my back would fall in love with the sparco reclinable seats
a lot of people are going with sparcos. you can get a set for around $1k. might have to get new rails. the milano and torino both are reclinable. we can also get momo seats too. were going to carry the tenzos because they were cheap, but engineering is also cheap. we're also trying to get recaros.
as for my car, all i have now is intake, drop, and camber kit. my 17" velox should be coming in by the end of next month and the tsunami t2001 front bumper is waiting to be painted. other than that, im saving for the k20 swap.

Sup guys...All I gotta say is I hate Statistics class!!! ugh!!!... Not much else going on here...Got my job which is great...waiting on 2nd one...we'll have to see...Stylin, I was hopin for maybe like 375...but I understand that if the guy offers u more at work...No biggie!!!...So far the best I could find for tires was around 350...And I'm still concerned about just shellin out over 700 just like that...!
I really need some rims tho...And this is a good deal ur offering...Well...back to the studying game...Lata yo'z...Keeping my fingers crossed that it might really get warm soon!!!

[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/IMG] weather.com lied! it was supposed to be cloudy today.. not rainy but im ganna paint my fuse box top and battery tie down anyways.. i just put on my 2nd coat of primer on both.. wait about 5 more mins, then time for 1st coat of red i want to do the bottom of the fusebox, but how would you do it with all those fuses in there? and the bunch of wires thats connected at the bottom of it, how do i disconnect that?
Edit: well i finished.. the priming was easy, but the paint was a b!tch!.. it like sprayed forward and sideways for some reason.. n i since i already took the pieces off, i cant go out n buy another can (my other car has no insurance) it looks fine, but i got friggin paint all over my hands! i tried turpintine, but that didnt get the paint off.. wat will?
nevermind.. nailpolish remover worked wonders

That looks quite nice...Very good job...I will be attempting the same thing shortly...I might wait till I get an inkake!...I don't wanna spend too much on one tho...
Bobby...where did you get yours from...I know yours was alot cheaper...Also, does yours have the bend coming out of the engine...cause I have the generic F.Upper strut bar...so the Injen SRI and only a few generics will actually fit with the bar...
Off to study for a Stats quiz...Adios..Mark

I got mine off E-bay...import tech brand I think. Yes it does have the bend in it. I have a pic in my member's section if you want to see it. I do see some older flat types on E-bay still though. Good luck!

Can you still get the Injen SRI like that? I heard that that was the old style and that Injen went with the raised one now. Not sure how true it is. Later all!

Oh well, I would rather have more head room. My car is filthy too, stupid sub zero weather! Well, is everyone ready for Srping? Dumb question huh? [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/IMG]
