Re: Whats your unique mods?

I rarely use mine. The only time I really ever used my dead pedal longer than 1min was when I was coming back from Atlantic City. Other than then it's been pointless to me. I'd probably put one of those in if I 1) Had $ for it and 2) Felt like looking for one, lol.

Re: Whats your unique mods?

Oh yeah, driving without a dead pedal would frustrate me. Possibly to the point where I started kicking in frustration.

Re: Whats your unique mods?

I couldn't drive without the dead pedal either, the bolsters are real high on my racing seats and it's tough to get my leg bent in such a way to reach the dead pedal but I've managed. Otherwise it's under the clutch and I've snagged my sandals on the clutch a few times.

Re: Whats your unique mods?

Yeah, I'd need a deadpedal.

Hopefully my "unique" mod will be getting the OEM head unit to play an auxiliary input for almost no money. Gimme a few more days...

I also hate driving with sandals. I will drive to the beach with my regular shoes, and take them off once arrived. I even think I heard it was against the law to use an open shoe while driving in where I live(CA).

Re: Whats your unique mods?

I started another unique modification today.........having a few issues with writing the software for it but here's a teaser.....

public void startCapture(final int framerate, final int timeLength)
{
interval = 1000 / framerate;
// Start timer.
timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(new TimerTask ()
{
public void run()
{
System.out.println("SNAP");
snapPicture();
count++;
if (count >= timeLength * framerate)
{
this.cancel();
}
}
}, 1000, interval);
}

public static void snapPicture()
{
final FrameGrabbingControl fgc = (FrameGrabbingControl) player.getControl("javax.media.control.FrameGrabbi ngControl");
buf = fgc.grabFrame(); // Convert it to an image
btoi = new BufferToImage((VideoFormat) buf.getFormat());
imgpanel.setImage(img); // save image
i++;
getSpeed(); // parse NMEA for speed from GPS
speedOverlay(img); // overlay speed from GPS onto image
img = btoi.createImage(buf); // show the image
saveJPG(img, imagesDirectory + filePrefix + i + ".jpg"); // save image to file
}
Can't get it from that? What about this:



Still having trouble? This should make it easy...



Should be done soon, just have to work out issues with the NMEA parsing, port splitting and text overlay.

Re: Whats your unique mods?

I don't know if these are unique but I haven't seen too many others with these DIY mods.

Blacked out badges all around.

Deleted fogs but used fog trim to house "cold air ducting" to my black INJEN short ram intake via flexible aluminum tubing.

In-car display of air temperature at air filter.

Urethane "heat shield" barrier between short ram filter and engine/exhaust manifold.

Pics soon...

Re: Whats your unique mods?

omg i absolutely love those rims!!!!!! Its inspired me to want to do somethin crazy with my rims. I have a ssm coupe and i got a set of 15" winter alloy wheels wut color ideas do u guys have?

also my most unique mod definantly has to be my rear end. Its definantly my favorite part of my car. Its not unique in the sense that i did some crazy conversion but its unique that i havent seen the same combination on anyone else's car. I have a wingswest rear lip except i painted the diffuser part black and it looks so sick. It makes it look like i have 3 seperate pieces to my back bumper, the bumper, lip, and diffuser. Also i have my exhaust angling out just a little bit to the right. I have smoked out altezza tails, smoked plate cover, and my crazy wingswest minime spoiler (i know u guys hate it) but its still prolly my favorite mod on my car. It just changes the look so much.

Re: Whats your unique mods?








That last pic im pretty sure im the only one in the world with that sticker. So please dont copy it. I'd patent it if i could. Basically i saw somebody who had a I <3 my civic sticker just like that on their windshield so i made one too cuz i work with vinyl all the time. (pm if u need somethin). But then some guys started chirpin me cuz i had a big heart on my car which didnt bother me and isnt the reason why i got rid of it. But anyways I made quite a few of those I <3 my civic banners and in the winter my sister was scraping my windshield in mid winter and she tore off half my heart and the c so i drove around with it saying i (broken heart) my ivic. hahahaha. Anyways i went to a car show and bought some soshinoya stickers cuz i always thought they looked cool and wen i went to redo my banner i was like hmm these kinda look like hearts and it would look so sick on my ride so thats the story of it. I hope the meaning comes accross as like I JDM My civic. Not the literal meaning of I JDM new driver my civic. But technically it makes sense cuz i am a new driver i have barely been drivin a year. Anyways im thinkin about starting a thread about this sticker cuz i dont wanna get beat up by the jdm guys for not having a jdm ride.

Re: Whats your unique mods?

Lets see... Story time;
The year was 2003 and I was on a family trip to New York City. At the time I was very interested in a forum so I would check it religiously. Anyway, so the hotel had a computer so I hopped on and checked the forums. When we got back from the trip the next day I tried to log in and it said that my account was blocked. I tried to make another account to get in, no luck. So I went over to my friends house and was finally able to make another account and I pm'ed the one mod saying who it was and what all was going on and to see if he could shed any light on the issue. He told me what I had done was against forum rules blah blah blah. After talking to him on aim we worked everything out. Here when I was using that computer it saved my pass and username and someone got on my account and posted up aton of **** onto the forums so they banned me. So now if some ******* steals my account most likely he won't know how I mark my work. So, if you ever see a post by me and it doesn't have that, then it's not really me. END STORY GET BACK TO THE TOPIC AT HAND

we all know you're a thief, but you should post more pics of your front and read end, they look like a kit that was stolen in austin right before you made a for sale thread for your old kit. The person stole a Xenon front end and a BC rear end, and then you pop up with this exact kit the same month? Same color, broken side mount for front bumper, and lines under headlight. hmmmmm...

look you even took the grill off of the bumper the body shop ordered and installed, and tried to sell it so you wouldnt be spotted so easily. The grill that was on the bumper is the top one with the plain honda symbol. We also have your finger prints. Man you are a *****. Also stupid for posting about what you have one year after you stole it. We always suspected you and your lil thief buddies. If I see your car around, I will obtain a second sample of prints.

^ I think i might be missing something but i'll choose to ignore it now.






I redirected my volume **** to the center console thing-a-mig. The **** is completely functional; when you press it, it will switch to the aux and play my creative zen instead of the cds or radio. I also added a bass controller and headphone jack for any mp3 player
