Got the vibrant muffler I got from Switchfootz welded on last night to replace my Weapon-R dual canister. Pics are a little blurry because there's something wrong with the camera on my phone. You get the idea though.

Here's the muffler that was on there.




Here's the new muffler




We had to make sure it centered up inside the ww rear lip.



Welding on

I took a before sound clip, I will have to take an after clip, will post those soon, sounds way better to me, the Weapon-R was a bit loud for my tastes, but if anybody wants a brand new muffler, let me know

Forgot to mention my front BBK came in (rear coming in a bit later) arrived last week. Everything was great MINUS the top hat for the 2 piece. It was made for a 5x114 instead of our lug pattern. I'll be shipping the part back tomorrow and will go from there.

Took the ack out to run some errands and then topped off the gas tank and rode her around the neighborhood a bit to listen to the exhaust. Then I put the stabil in the tank, ran her for 7 or 8 minutes to get the stabil through the fuel system, then pulled her in, tucked her in for the winter and hooked her up to the battery tender.

The rear brakes with the new top hats will not be here for another 2 weeks. I will be out of the country at that time. So that means the update won't be till the 9th of Jan. Sorry fellas.

I just came across something you guys might be interested in. It's sold by heel toe on his site, it's called a bitch clip popper.

http://www.heeltoeauto.com/honda-gen...ip-popper.html

I'm sure some of you would love this tool! Didn't know where else to share this.

Gonna have to cut the feet off the rsx seats and re-weld them back onto the rails in the proper spots to make this work. Paid 150 for the pair but unfortunately will end up spending an additional 1-150 to get the fabrication done. Still worth it.

Yeah, I know a guy at a junkyard and they only had the drivers side listed for $125. When I went to check it out in the car I noticed the passenger seat and was confused. They told me it wasn't listed due to the airbag being popped and he was like "$150 for the set" lol! They were pretty moldy and dirty due to the passenger door not there and drivers window open for as long as they've had the car but I scrubbed the shit out of them with soap/water/and a touch of simple green and Voila!
I'll post pics up when they're in! Good luck!

Damn this car sometimes! Broke an axle (wtf really) when taking it off. Camber kit does not fit this car, turns out spc sent me plates for the 6th gen accord even though the part number shows it was for the 98 CL. The bbk came in today, but I'm still installing the new poly bushings in the control arms and that is turning out to be a bizznitch. This is what I get for wanting to install everything at the same time. Expect a few daysto go by before I show progress lol.

i didnt physically do anything but im still playing with different colors. Im getting mad cause im seeing more and more cars with the teal color -__- so I chose the Nebula Gray Pearl from lexus. I feel it gives the car that luxury look again and makes the headlights and bumper light pop along with the chrome accents.
