I'm thinking about trying to make it to the Honda Meet on June 7th since I can't make any other damn meets lately. I saw a couple names on there from this area and was wondering where you guys plan on meeting up and what time. If even half those cars show up, it'll be sweet. Let me know if you guys have a plan.

No plan yet but I just may try to take this day off from work so that I can make it. I have to double check my finances first. I know the Richmond guys will probably be meeting somewhere and I was thinking that we could meet them at that spot. I will keep in touch with you about it.

I finally got the invoice for my ATLP Jpipe, race pipe, and quad catback exhaust.. Mike said that I should have everything within the next two weeks. I hope I get it soon, cuz I really want to have it all done for the parade on July 5!!!!

You know it man.. I can't wait for those parts from ATLP!

Congrats! I thought about going for the j-pipe, but I had to jump on the motor mount GB wagon. I'm going to need that first. If I can get my stock wheels sold, I can do the j-pipe as well. These gas prices are killing me!

Here is the thread. Unfortunately there is some politics going on between Sean/04accordcpe (the guy that got it started) and Josh from Excelerate. Both of them are doing GB of $315. If you're interested, the dead line for Sean is today.

Same here.. I have been cut off. No more car cash for now. My wife saw the invoice from ATLP and decided to add up all of the money that I have been spending on my car lately. It wasn't pretty.

Besides.. would they really make that much of a difference?? and WTF is "wheel hop" anyway?

Oh yeah.. don't forget to click on the link in my signature to sign up for the "victory lap" on July 5. Having all of our cars in a parade is going to make for some killer video!!!!

You have to host the pics on a site like photobucket, then use the "Go Advanced" button at the bottom and click on the icon that looks like mountains and paste the image link in the box provided. Hope that helps.

Looks GOOD Eric! Double check before you drop it though for any rub issues. Offset was my enemy with my rims, but as long as they don't stick out as far as mine, you should be good!! A perfect way to test it is get it out on the interstate, get up to speed and find an area where the road dips out and comes right back up (for instance, where the road meets a bridge). Mine rubbed before I dropped it and I found out with the above scenario. Also by entering a shopping complex that has a steep incline to get into or out of it. Found out with that scenario also. Of course you know that all I did was cut the tabs in the rear afterward. Still rubs on the harsh dips but not near as bad.
