Do you have the OEM engine mounts? Aftermarket mounts have been known to cure wheel-hop and traction problems on 7gen's.

the next and last mod I want to do... but I don't know if I'll get around to it... I have the back ones already... and made a HUGE difference... with the FX lowered, AND the rear braces... I take corners like it's nothing and freeway on ramps that loops 270 degrees are fun as hell... the front ones are suppose to just amplify the performance even more (in terms of body rolls)

you can kinda see in this picture the back ones underneath (well, one of them)


the front ones look like this...

I have OEM mounts. I've heard way too many conflicting reviews regarding annoying cabin vibration on the aftermarket poly-mounts to want to experiment with them. Not only are the mounts expensive, but the labor to put them in is crazy since I can't do that myself. At least with the Stiffy ED it's bolt-on/bolt-off if I don't like it.

no i'm pretty sure it's for the door.

the 1g TSX's are notorious for the door not locking/unlocking automatically. this is the third time it's happened to me.

I've got the Santa right where I want it to be in terms of upgrades. Now I'm starting to replace interior parts that are starting to wear out.

I really want:
- New leather steering wheel ($1,200 )
- New leather shift knob
- New center console
- Fix warped rear seatback support (not a big deal, nobody really sits there anyway)
- PDR a couple of dents

The clear is starting to peel off the lower plastic trim. We'll see how it holds up and how long I can wait until I have the thing repainted with Ceramiclear.

That's about it. Then I'll be happy.

Okay..Okay..So I finally bit the bullet.

I was literally minutes away from ordering Tokicos and Teins for a set of wheels I was eyeballing, when I got a letter in the mail about my CL. Apparently I'm at the point in my payments where I can just trade it for another car and somehow balance the payments out, synthesize them I have no idea, I'll read further in a bit.

Point is. Saw a Mini that I liked at a stealership the other day.

Test drive being set up.
