Kevin, you can't ride bike or swim, GTFO!
Dennis...lookin RIGHTTTT...Have you thought about having some Honda decals made for the blank center caps? It annoys me that they are blank...makes them look knockoffey...
Thanks bro. I have the volk wheel stickers on the barrel and on one spoke so adding a H in the mix is big no no
Lexol or Zaino does the trick. If the leather is real bad try leatherique. I did leatherique when I just bought the car but now I use lexol for routine cleaning.

It's not bad at all, just needs some love. Do you use Lexol for clean and condition or just clean?
all winter? it's fuckin January!
I use the griots stuff or lexol.
took the s out last night for movie night...
got the gf a shirt to commemorate her newly acquired skill.
It feels like all fucking winter lol. I'm just gearing up to get started driving again! Also, the interior of the Jeep is absolutely filthy with dirt, sand, salt, water, etc. It needs a really deep clean as soon as it gets nice out again. Before that, not worth the time.
LOL...thanks Sam...almost bought a save the manuals one but I've seen those everywhere...
funny enough she was like, uh...the R is in the wrong place for the S2000...I'm like yeah yeah, it's a German shifter babe...
she also after driving it that whole time was like "ohhh...that's so handy to have the diagram on the shifter, i hadn't noticed it and kept trying to remember"
I use Lexol for the Explorer. Used to use it for the TL. It works pretty well... No complaints.
I've read that some people said it's too slippery. I'm like, are you not working it into the leather.
Is it shiny when it dries? I hate that look. I've also seen Chemical Guys leather stuff is good too but I've been out of the detail game for a while.

Yup, I used leatherique on my BMW for years. Unfortunately it's expensive and hard to get your hands on it. Maybe I'll try and get some just to really get my interior up to snuff.
LOL...no shit...those are cool.
the ones I found were either German like that, or correct side but 5 gears...
like hullowwwww...there was a whole decade or more where 6 was the standard!
and the thought of adding a turbo kit to the Nissan is still ever present. There's a guy in town that does some simply remarkable turbo kits for nissans/infinitis. Very well thought out, and he does some incredible welding work. This is one of his kits, installed:
work of art...wow...
gonna be a shame to do that and inevitably wrap it around a tree with all that extra power.
how much does it end up running you all in? $15K US, tuned and all?
the kit is (if I remember correctly) like $9700US. But then you need some supporting mods on top, and yeah, a tune. I think 13.5-15k US would be about right.
On stock internals, the 370 engine is able to handle around 600hp. It's actually the torque that destroys the engine. Anything approaching 500lbft is dangerous. I believe 450lbft is the highest safe torque number.
But I mean, the car weighs like 3200 pounds. With those numbers, yeah, trees might be hard to avoid. Definitely wouldn't let justn drive it afterwards
This guy is on stock internals, using one of the aforementioned kits. The kit builder mentioned he was pushing the limits of the stock internals. We'll see how long his setup lasts:
It's well thought out. It doesn't hang lower than the body of the car. The exhaust is where the normal exhaust would be. A little bigger in diameter, but still tucked away. Nothing hangs lower than the exhaust on that setup.
What's cool with his fab work is that he creates jigs to make the pieces identical time and again. He's my hero.
I love you Dennis...
