Ok, I want to get rims so BAD!!!

So here's the plan....... I'm going to buy rims, drop my ride and (of course) camber, all at the same time. So I need a little bit of extra CA$H. How will I get this CA$H you ask?? Well, I want to sell the stock rims I have now.

This is where you guys come in. How much should I sell them for??? I have no idea.

I'd keep them for winter tires...

You may be able to get $350-400 for the rims + tires if the tires are in good condition

I'm looking to sell my rims, and nobody would give me any money for them. they're the 5 spoke enkei rims that honda had last year on the sedan...the special edition stuff..

dang...I want moneys too

whassup guys....i just recieved the pod for my guages and it looks siiiick...i cant wait to put them back in. One thing is that the autometer ultrsalite guages only light up white....im wondering if i could change them to blue?? Ive hear that sleeves can be used but i dunno.
Array: i would sell them too and buy some cheap steel ones for winter...theress no point ruining those ones when u could sell them get cheap winters and still make a lil bit more money.
tek:that engine set up would be crazy, that what i was thinking instead of a turbo on the rsx...but still a bov would be very nice....plus with pistona nd **** u could probably accomodate for a turbo also!!! mmmm
but does anyone know about guages and the buls etc...??

The Autometer Pro Comps I have come with condoms to put over the bulbs. They gave me a red, blue and green one. The Air Fuel doesn't have a bulb as it's jsut a bunch of LED's.

Lightbulb GT3 Competition!

Hey fellas, wanna have a team GT3 Competition?

We could get Pir8Pete's and TeK's PS2's and rig them together with a link cable and play head to head on two TV's so there's no split screen...We take the Skyline GT R34 and WRX Prototype and send them to TeK's mem card so we can use the same cars making it fair.

Here's the breakdown:

We could have a buy in (to be discussed)

Round Robin tourney involviong street and Ralley

Elimination playoffs

Top two in best of three (alternating styles) with biggest point getter picking which type to race first, Ralley or Street.

and most important...PIZZA!

pizza: EXCELLENT

one problem: I can't really do it this weekend

but, next friday I'm game! or next sat, actually...we'd wanna make this a day thing I imagine?

pharoh: yah that makes sense cuz my air fuel ratio didnt come with any "condom" thingy's, but my voltmeter did. Alrigth thaty makes sense thanks....do they actually work, like will it light up a different colour? Also did you install yours? If so would u be able to give me a hand. I know they are pretty simple to install, but it would be nice to have someone who has already done them. As for the gt3 tourney i have a ps2 with gt3...just to let yall know thats my game right thurr. Maybe you can wait till i come back??? Fastest car in the game is definately the zonda silver italian ****....that thing is murderous...but if i was in canada i would be down....why not wait for me??

Yo man. Fo sure we'll wait for you! The Zonda is so uncontrollable though....For Real, the R34 is the ultimate...We have Pete's at 1150 HP! I tuned it to do over 250 MPH!

I didn't install my guages by myself, I went to Pearl to use their mini torch and shrink wrap...he he he!

It's a capacitor. It's used to even out the load from sub woofers. If your lights dim in your car when your sub "hits" you'll know what I mean. It looks like it has a built in volt-meter. Shows if your draining the battery I guess.

payment, sure. I'll take $99 now, and $1 the next time I see you


I have the progress front sway bar. it was...actually, I don't remember?

something like $130USD.

Tornactive.com has the front for $139, and the rear for $165 (USD).

then take off 5% from our discount...

I didn't get the rear, though. I got the Integra Type-R (DC5 -- Our RSX) rear sway bar. it's the same size as the progress. It was about $160CAD for it shipped to me from B.C.

lots of options for suspension...trust me

Well I guess the secret is out!!!! LOL

I have a 1 Farad Cap. It's not the biggest and really doesn't help me all that much. But even a little help is good with my subs.

What I mean is.......my lights still dim, but not as much.

Tek : Just dream up a few logo's for our Team (assuming we are "L7's")

I think we should have some something non-rectagular...maybe just a Big 7 with an "H" behind it and a motto underneath!! hmm

I can picture it, just can't create it.
