200 seems mad cheap for brand new ones.

 

anyone know how to get rid of overspray on tires??

 

Don't see overspray but i'd try claybar or just get new tires

 

^^look at the bottom right section and you can see an "outline" on the tire just barely but it looks funny and its killing me

 

i don't think you can claybar tires, cuz claybars only work on smooth surfaces which tires aren't with all the writing and stuff on them. i vote for new tires too

 

i guess nvm cus i drove on it a little more today and it seemed to fade so im hoping it will all come off if not ill try something other than replacing my tires

 

I wouldn't seriously recommend it, I was more joking, just try buffing it off with a rag or just letting it fade, then put some tire shine or something over them after you clean them

 

try a brillo pad or something along those lines...

 

Good idea allan, brillo or scrub brush

 

use nail polish remover or paint thinner on a cloth.

 

 

Looks nice Matt, I almost got the Skunk2, looks nice and sturdy, how's your car these days?

 

what did you get? not too many choices. i think the S2 is the nicest.

i need a new speed sensor (vtec only works like less than 25% of the time)
and i need a new Rear Driver side caliper. its leaking and i get no brake pressure
my car needs a dyno tune desperately.
and i need to re-loop my power steering lines, cuz there leaking and whatever fluid is left in my steering rack is drying up.

 

Matt!!!! I need that S2 piece! Where'd you get it? What other parts on our suspension are upgradeable? I'm redoing my whole shit.

 

^^you dont have to upgrade everything just replace things that are worn. there is a whole kit energy suspension makes it.


heres what i finished tonite. i like it.... :me putting flame suit on:





edit: too lazy to wash it tonite....dont hate

 

damn looks hot, need better pics though


no tire wet FTL lol

 

yea i just snapped some real quick ones tonite. when i get home from classes tomm ill take a few more

 

^^ Very nice... Loving the little bit of the polished lip on there... Can't wait to see more pics...

 

^^^ I've been telling people about this kit for years, I have the full set installed on my CL

Wheels look good, now clean those tires!!!

 

you have the same problem i did when i did mine. get some mothers rubbing compound and go at that lip. even better just google some lip polishing method, and work that out and it will look way better

 

my g/f got it for my birthday. she found this place jazzproparts.com that sells it $100 shipped. as far function i doubt it does anything but it looks pretty tight. i hate the way our bumpers sit, its not as visible as it would be on say a Civic or Integra.

 

U wanna see suspension parts, get a rear sway

 

Wow... I ordered a clutch from jazzproparts.com, and it took them 2 months for it to arrive... Now given, I'm in Ohio, and they're in Texas, but still... I called them literally 20 times within a couple of days trying to figure out where my clutch was, and got no answer... Tried emailing - nothing... It took so long to hear from them that I started to file a fraudulent charge with my bank... Maybe I just had a bad experience, but who knows...

 

Dropped. See my thread in Photography Gallery.

 

So bored today, this forum is slow today. I haven't gotten a chance to finish my climate control, been too busy, and had to transform my garage into a halloween party and beer pong area, so work bench and all tools were covered for about a week. Winter is approaching though, what are some winter projects we have pending? Here's my short list:

Finish LED upgrades to interior and climate control
New front bumper and lips painted and installed
Yet another grill change
Change all positive and ground cables in engine bay to 4 guage
Install Legend calipers paint rear calipers to match
Install 99 3.0 hubs and new rotors and pads all around
Get new spring rates for D2's and install D2 suspension
Install UR Pullies and VAFC-II
Install headers and exhaust finally
Tires for 18's and put new rims on for spring
Hopefully do my fiberglass trunk I've been talking about for 2 winters

I'm trying to get most of my projects done this winter/spring so that next winter I can start on a whole different path

What are the winter projects people?

 

Mine would be a simple debadge and blackhousing. When i get money saved up, a drop and swaybars.

 

nah they took forever with me too and gave me the royal run around with it. whatever their prices are good.

 

shit i need to do:
fix my driver side directional harness
re-silicone my headlights
re-loop my power steering rack
get new tires
new brakes including rear driver side caliper
re-install the grip tape on my pedals
shoft shifter
all new bolts and washers from boltdepot.com
tuck my fuse box, abs gear, driverside headlight harness
re-do my valve cover (gonna look sickkk)
get dyno tuned

lookie what i'm ordering!

 

may not sound like projects, but this is what i gotta do

short shifter
CAI
paint wheels
paint calipers
get a remote control for car alarm
debadge
fix front bumper

and then wash and wax it. =)

 

That's not a project, read the first page

 

eh its kinda a project ahah black ack ur car is gunna be sexy as hell when u get that stuff done. right now i need to:

replace my turn signal

put on my header gasket

redo my headlights

paint my damaged rear bumper

and i freakin want to have enough money to slam my shit but little projects like these always come along and drain my money!

 

well doods, my project is actually almost done, had i found this thread earlier,

finally replacing the blown motor in the CL, my records show i blew it early march (with a full tank of gas btw)

Last weekend, a JDM F23A arrived at my doorstep and the old motor was pulled out.

Today, i assembled everything on the new motor, and dropped it in and started buttoning her up.

tomorrow she comes back to life. good day sirs....

 

My smoked out signals and new shift knob should be coming in teh mail shortly. I think i'm just going to dump my car on eibach pro-kit lowering springs... cheapest effective option at this moment in time.

 

btw, anybody on here have eibach pro-kit?

 

i wouldnt put prokit and dump in the same sentance. its more of, slight drop. a lame one at that.


im sorry but i think this project thread is a joke, i think we should keep most of these posts for the hey guys whats goin on thread unless your working on a real project, not just naming out your wish list/ to do list

 

Okay, well I have a project for you... I could send you my lights and some money and you could make them look exactly like your.

And ya i'll stay out of this thread until something big pops up

 

i agree with spencer. a G22 turbo is a project, a full wire tuck and gutting of an interior is a project.

i dont even consider a normal H22 swap a real project.

 

and prokits are a joke

And yes, this is a PROJECT thread I want to know what peoples' projects are, bumper lights and springs aren't really projects, doesn't anyone have any good projects planned for winter? Am I the only one still doing shit to a CL? Where's all the project heads, where's cocoa? There's some big projects goin on but everyone's quiet about them, I wanna know what people are doing dammit

 

For this site, i'd consider it a project. As for projects, I'm desperately trying to find a way to park my CL so that i can take the head off to install some things and get it tuned afterwards. Jeff Evans Tuning is close to me. I'd like to see what he can do with my car after seeing Shaun's H22 CL in action
