    couldnt resit again! somewhat heavy fog and an empty school lot again. :mrgreen:
    enjoy
    oh, and the reason the jdm corners arent on is because they flew off while racing a civic. road got kinda bumpy and the next thing i knew it was gone. :( managed to find it the next day though. minor crack at the bottom only! i was like thank god its still in one piece. i now need to get bulbs for it and it will be back in order. looking for the 86-87 jdm corners now. keeping them for future references

    like the look matey, looking much more like it with them wheels on.

    I really like the satin black bonnet ( truth be told its a look I am considering for next year, using a graphic wrap )

    one thing though, whatch doing with the side mouldings? I think it would look smother than a con man at a widows convention if you took the rear qtr mouldings off.

    Re: kevinkyang's (blue interior and fog lights installed )

    yes, matt, i didnt lose to the civic. they think they are fast with their fart cans. i just laugh when it sounds like they are going hella fast only to see them going speed limit! lol

    if i lost, i would pull over and cry. :( it would be a damn shame to lose to one of those things stock to stock.....

    dude, you should totally go with the black bonnet! it makes the car lool so much meaner :twisted:
    and i was thinking of taking it back off and just ask my brother in law to customize ones just to go around the side markers. what do you think of that? :D

    i was thinking about it a lot. it kinda brings out its uniqueness out of the car though. :T its ok though, like i said i just might have my brother in law customize some little outlines for the side markers.

    It's to stop smoking, nothing to do with emissions
    I've heard the JDM cars actually run cleaner and if there're not smoking there's no need for EGR

    For the EGR to work properly, your cars are fitted with bigger injectors, ie they are less fuel efficient as well

    oh ok, so the smaller the injectors the more speed you get. dam USDM cars! they down grade soooo many things....

    No Kev, most power is derived at an optimum air/fuel ratio of 14:1
    Any less and you have power loss and heat/detonation problems,
    too much fuel and you "wash" the oil from the cylinders and it destoys pistons,
    rings and cylinders, your wallet etc

    A motor DOES NOT make more power with more fuel, race teams sometimes run rich to help a cooling problem knowing the motor will be re-built in a few days.

    The way the EGR works requires extra fuel & air to burn any smoke,
    so it's actually not eco-friendly at all.

    Re: kevinkyang's (gts seats fitted)

    i remebered the camera after i started. lol sorry guys. got to excited! well in a nut shell i just swaped the brackets for the seats. and thanks again to phantomJDM for the seats! so mint and so, so , so.....free! hehe thanks man. and to stig giving the know-how on changing them out. good thing they were a direct bolt up or i woulda been toast. anyways...

    by the time i got here i had already removed the bottom of the passenger seat. (didnt document the driver seat because it woulda been too repetitive.) only 4 bolts :D
    [​IMG]
    this is the top and bottom together again. for the last and final time sad5
    [​IMG]

    this is the seat that i have in my car now. :mrgreen:
    [​IMG]

    now this is what i needed! the brackets! :twisted: total time to get to this point...about an hour, believe it or not. many bolts and clips to get to this point.
    [​IMG]

    to get to this point, remove the four 10mm bolts in the back. lift and pull back and there you go.

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    you will be missed.... sad5
    NOT :twisted: :mrgreen:
    [​IMG]

    really satisfied about the seats. really confortable and i instantly gain like 100hp with it. I SWEAR!! haha yea, will get more pictures of the interior tomorrow
