Yup Stock Type S, Ordered HT Spec 1s which should be here sometime next week. So Cant wait to throw them on. Im having one problem with them now tho with stock suspension. When i have a full car they rub anytime i take a turn or take off to fast. Im worried about when i drop it if it will be even worse. Anyone have any ideas what i can do to fix it. I dont thing its hitting the fender it might by hitting the OEM Strut. Its pretty close to the tire when i look under the wheel well. I would appreciate any feedback tho Thanks in advance...

Nothing too special just yet, but my tips were dull as dirt (pretty sure they've never been polished before). Mineral spirits, simple green, and semi-aggressive polish wasn't even touching the black soot around the lower edge along with the oxidation on the outside of the tips. So I tried wet sanding them with 1000 grit sand paper and finishing with some polish and here are the results:
The pic was from my phone so it doesn't really do it justice, but they look a hell of a lot better than they did.

Locomaaan...Brandon will be doing my headlights in a while, but Im interested in what kind of turn signals you're running. Im not really a fan of switchbacks or white corners. Sorry if I missed a post somewhere.

since im not getting enough responses in my thread in the fixes & problems section, i'll ask here. what do you guys think i should do about my slipping 2-3 shift problem? alrdy did the type F fluid flush and changed out the 3rd and 4th gear pressure switches. the slipping started happening very soon after the pressure switch swap, but im 100% sure it was done correctly. did i just get a bad set of switches? or did i get a bad tranny?

Do you still have the original pressure switches? Did you order non type s pressure switches? Are your pressure switches on wrong? I would suggest swapping back your old ones and comparing the difference.

I have done two drain and refills with the Acura Z-1 ATF and my tranny feels like it did when I first had the car.

no its the right switches for sure, i have checked the part #s many times and cross referenced it through multiple dealer websites. unfortunately i lost the old switches i thought i had saved them but apparently i left them in the box that went to trash.
