and also considering the size and weight of his "supposedially new rims" they proably be off of a more performance oriented car then a mazda 3


so i'm thinking like evo or sti rims more so (not quite sure of their sizes though )

E30 hit the nail on the head, theres plenty time left in the day. Ill get the picture hosted and posted when I get home from work.

Jacob, the swaybar was the first suspension upgrade I did. I noticed a huge difference in turn-in.

Great work Civic! Amazing Build.
You've got yourself your own little fan club now. There hanging onto your every word! You can't disappoint them now.

Ohh and I like how this thread goes off-topic every so often.

I do have a question. What was it about the CF parts you didn't like? I have had some iffy feelings about my CF parts too ever since I put them on. I have debated on painting or selling them. Was it the fact that the CF from VIS has a strong copper hue to it when paired with the NBP? Or that it makes the NBP look more blue?
Overall I like my hood but my trunk just looks out of place.
If fits like shit and I just generally hate it. Wonder if you felt the same. Not to mention the weight saving was allot less then I expected. I dropped more wight with my battery... You're saving more with your wheels, lol.
