Oh got you.. You can order the 2013 Civic Si shocks/springs front & back for about $500
I dunno if that would drop you any.. you can subtract about 125 if you just want the shocks.

IJS he brought up the new ones haha

Well you should know not to spend over like 375 (with low miles) cause the whole brand new set is like $450 then about 500 shipped. Let me know if anyone needs partzzzz numberzzzzzz

The '13 Si sway bars would probably be a worthy investment as well. <$200 for both and the new bushings

I think we're bullying them.. just like how they tried to raise all these alarms about Iran.. no one bit on the trash and they moved on to N. Korea.. America has lost it's way.. Washington is looking for a fight and we as "the people" let them goto Afghanistan, which led to an unmeritted assault on Iraq.. Then they try to wave the big stick at Iran (people don't bite) and then they wave it at N Korea.. it's trash, it makes us look worse than we already do as a country.

We can't run around the planet saying "YOU CAN'T DO THIS", "YOU CAN'T DO THAT" .. we're the biggest hypocrits.. it's fear tactics to provoke war.. PERIOD.

Do I say we let N Korea invade S Korea? NO. Do I say we should be responding to N Korea? NO, be the intelligent party and just let S Korea know, HEY we're still here for you if shit goes down. No need to keep pressuring N Korea and basically say "do it, I ****ing dare you."

I like the double negative in that sentence. But, yea, I could totally go for using the phone as gauges.

LOL give me a break, Speed!

That being said it's said because double negatives drive me crazy.

$750 with a tune. FP is 695 by itself then Heeltoe is offering it for like 640? Then a vit tune is $150.. works better this way

vits tune is 195 regularly. If you buy fp through the deal, it's just under 630 (cause you get a discount with the coupon price). You save like 20 bucks that way. Moot point when you're playing with thousands of dollars, lol

Well it's either
FP+VitTune=$750
Or
Heel toe $630 for FP + $150 for VitTune = $780

I am saving $30 by going with Vit
