what did you have to do to get the hood closed w/ that AC pulley on the left? did you have to do some cutting on the hood? cause hawk was having issues w/ that and thats what he ended up doing.

Rep Power: 362 john: I don't know when I'm gonna dyno it ... probably when this comes around ... dyno day oct 15th.
I'm not expecting much ... probably 185 whp. Like I said earlier, everything is bone stock from the dc5r except the intake mani gasket and a hot air intake. I'll probably throw on an Injen CAI and dyno that to see what the difference will be. (for all those people who still don't believe that CAI > SRI x 100000)
pbfoot: u mean the power steering pulley?
... I'm using the ep3 idler pulley.. it is much smaller than the rsx pulley. So, yeah ... I don't have power steering ... but I actually prefer it that way... you can feel the road much better and your turns aren't over-exaggerated.
goodtimes: drivetofast did the swap at his friend's shop AMS.

great car man. Nice sleeper! 
i HAVE seen you around. i saw that coupe sportin the DOHC sticker and thaught "you wish" i think i was passing you going the opposite way on los alisos. it is really a sleeper looks completely stock besides the exhaust and to an untrained eye you wouldnt even notice that. looks good i cant wait to see it in person.

Rep Power: 362 yeah ... oh well .. I never really used cruise control...
is it worth $8k? ... I think $8k is pretty mild compared to what other people on this board have spent on their setups.
ragingspam: um ... how do you see the cf on the hood?? ... people can barely tell in person and this pic is very tiny! haha

Rep Power: 319 i can see the shade difference on the hood...i've painted about 6-7 of them for other people and u start to see the opacity of the clear over the cf under the paint...heh i guess i just have an eye for it...yes it may sound like im full of **** but its just from personal experience...also the hood on the part closest to the windshield sits higher than oem

Rep Power: 319 indeed its nice...i think 8k is worth it...if u buy a civic for lets say a used one at $8000 for a 02-03 ex and put another 8k into it so u can do a swap its like buying a brand new ex for 16k...so its not that bad...i might do that later but go with an 04 front end conversion
