Lmao It was cheaper that my shift knob I really want it to be as good as everyone says it is and can't wait to give my estatic review that everyone else seems to give it. Of course it can't be without some headache as my good friend galeforce says "it's a pain in the balls to install" within a tight space, but I'm hoping having much practice "stuffing" myself in small spaces I will be alright

I think you will be impressed Although the OEM clutch pedal is a piece of $hit, so that's not difficult

I recommend you find something to lay down next to the car that is about the height of the interior door sill and sturdy enough for you to lay on. In this fashion, I was perfectly comfortable for pretty much the entire install

Thanks for the heads up Jar. I did read in a thread someone used milk crates and a blanket which sounded like a kick *** idea. It may have been yours. That's the only thing I'm hesitant on is the hurt im gonna feel after/ while installing this. It's been having me debting on having someone do it and paying the $100. Only this idea of having something to lay in and not be completely wrenched under the dash gives me hope

Finally got a build thread going I see. I still refer to your car as the fastest thing I've ever experienced. Its like the accelerative rush when falling out of a plane, but horizontal. All I can hear through three gears was the racelogic working to tame the beast. Aaaaannnnndddd then she hooks with the fury of 1,000 angry wives and catipults you into the future. This car is pretty legit. I feel bad for anything trying to outpace it.

you always have had a way with words my friend. I'm really counting on these Toyo r888 in 345/30/19 to take some of the work out of the race logic for more butt puckering action in the first few gears. Kind of my brothers experience when i took him out and the car hooked really hard around 4500 rpm in 3rd and snapped his neck back in the seat I just heard him scream oooouch

Oh do tell that sounds super sweet most likely I will
Not go as I have not reinforced anything underneath (I think It was the diff mount that snaps loose after a launch or two terrible one could comment on that) and I need axles from drive shaft shop and those are $2k that I need not spend. But......doesn't mean I won't. Where can I find info into this?

To be honest, I don't know much about the event, I happen to see one of my friends from FB going. I did a quick search and this could be one of those events with a lot of Civics and cars of that type, but I don't know. Will have to Google it. I don't think I would run my car there either, but you never know.

Anyway, great build thread. Look forward to seeing your updates.

Got an email from Mark at ravspec that they are going to be mounting my tires today or tomorrow. Toyo r888 265/35/19f 345/30/19r Mmmmmmm meaty. Should be able to snap some necks easier with some more traction in 1st,2nd and half of 3rd gear now

I think you are a prime candidate to do a proper widebody build and throw some 405s on the rears
