In reference to NOPI cancelling shows. I have a good friend from work who has his own side business doing car audio/video. He is a vendor for Soundstream products. He showed me an email from the V.P. of soundstream that had been received from NOPI. What it basically said was that the main reason for cancelling ALL of the NOPI shows was due to much slower than normal business due to the economy.

I'm foaming at the mouth this week after looking at the JDM Theory event coverage pictures over on honda tech.com. There are tons of ridiculous cars over there that i simply must see in person one of these days. A trip to california is definitely something that can be made possible.

Lookin forward to that Cusco Roll Cage. It's actually pretty cool how many Evo parts fit the TL with slight modifications. Can't wait to see it again soon at the next show.
The cage is in!! It fits almost like a glove. Next step is installing a 4G63 and AWD components.

Yeah, it's supercharged and intercooled. There's a massive thread about it if you search my username for threads started. No dyno numbers though.

The hardest part with this modification was figuring out what to do with the sunroof. Options were:

1) Detach glass from the track and install with brackets
2) Plexiglass plug
3) CF plug
4) Have metal welded in to fill the hole, then repainted black

...I went with option one for the time being. If this option works well i'll keep it as is, if not then i'll change it out.

I saw your TL at Import Alliance and took some pictures of it but you weren't over there to talk to about the car. It looked sick though. My favorite at the show

no doubt bro! And thanks for commenting. The side splitters are made out of a toe kick plate which is wood. I was looking for plastic but decided i would try the wood to see how it looks. I will have to change it out for something better because they're starting to warp.

Anytime man. That's what forums are for..to help others out. The piece you're referring to is a part I purchased from pepboys...its supposed to be a cf door step plate, but i used it on the radiator support beam...it looks decent, but i want it to look more official.
