Does his trunk have a seatbelt?

CleanNeon98 · 06-27-2009, 04:05 AM

Wishlist for parts keeps growing, job isnt appearing.

Avic d3
led interior, and rear end conversion
Illumina adjustables

Ugh I need some monies like yesterday.

disturbedfan121 · 06-27-2009, 12:35 PM

i wouldn't recommend the illumina's i had them and wasn't impressed. I like the KYB AGX's better (what i'm running now) coupled with FM springs and FCM 46mm Bumpstops are a nice combo.

omgjacki · 06-27-2009, 12:46 PM

Here ya go...

I have the stock Bilsteins now, I like them but could always go stiffer. What's the deal with replacing the bumpstops?

And Jacki, you know that's not my style. I'm still curious to see if she can even slide

Almost doesn't count. It will kick the back end out for a second, then comes back in line, it's how the car is designed.

I am sure if you had enough power you can get it to stay out.

Of course, but making a car do what it wasn't intended to do isn't easy

motorvated · 06-27-2009, 07:25 PM

Go out and practice it. I can slide mine around pretty well and I have no power and no LSD. Try it in the rain first in an open location, so you can get a feel for it..then try it in the dry. Also if you really want to learn how to drift, read up on the different methods. Shouldnt be hard at alll in your car, especially with 200 hp

CleanNeon98 · 06-28-2009, 06:57 PM

Got my first trophy at Bob & Ron's World Wide Video car show today...wasn't really any competition there, most cars were built for audio and not really all that nice. When they announced the best of show car I almost wanted to give mine back. Here they are. Placed 1st in Import.

Show mode:

Trophy:

Best of show: *NOT FOR VIRGIN EYES*

DPancoast · 06-28-2009, 07:02 PM

lagos · 06-28-2009, 07:40 PM

JDMTyler3326 · 06-28-2009, 07:50 PM

OutToWinPAHC · 06-28-2009, 08:06 PM

disturbedfan121 · 06-28-2009, 10:20 PM

**** if i didn't work i shoulda gone...i woulda won! lol

nice job on winning CN. +1 for miata's

CleanNeon98 · 06-29-2009, 12:28 AM

Show was overall a good time, met a few cool people, and got to hang around a new to me spectrum of the car world, definately some crazy stuff there. As far as the CRX, it IS hideous but it's a definition of what a show car is, it shows the extreme of modifying a car, nothing you'd want to or in some cases be able to drive around, but as far as show cars go it was really the only one there. Not like I was going to win best of show anyway so whatever, still a good time.
