heat soak = no good.. i was going to go get my dyno done tomorrow but after i went to get my recall work done i went to the dentist to find out i have to have a root canal done tomorrow =( so look like my dyno will have to wait till another time =/
SIDE NOTE: i was able to get the RDX as a loaner from acura.. LOVE IT!!! specially the rear view camera options with the parking lines!! i think i may have to get it after the tsx is paid off

Man, I hear you, I had 2 root canals done this year and it cost a fortune even with insurance! Yeah, during the tunning session my intake temps went up to 180 degrees and was loosing any where from 30 - 100 hp with the ambient temp being around 55.

Has anyone had problems filling up gas by themselves when they couldn't wait any longer?
Today my brother in law couldn't wait any longer and he went and put the hose back on the pump after the car was filled. The clerk then went crazy saying, "YOU COULD HAVE SPILLED SOMETHING!!" I was like "you need to calm the fuck down" and he still went on about spilling something. I didn't want to pull the California self service card so I just walked away.
I know next time not to touch any parts of the pump.

That black bug is siiiiick.
Only thing i would change is the trans, and the front beams.
I plan on doing a A-Arm front end on it. Lots of fab involved, but a shit ton of travel is the reward.
^ just a couple of the ones im using for inspiration.

true that.. but it looks street driven so im going to guess it might have higher gears..
i should find a 92 civic shell and put a s2000 engine in it with RWD.. make it a sand rail car =)

does your navigation unit have the plug in for a rear view camera hook up? cameras alone are around 200 bucks.. ding the power is easy. just hook up the power to the reverse light source.. the thing that will be hard is hooking up to your screen

^ that plug setup is very easy to do. I did it on my car but i use it for ipod video/movies instead of the camera but i was planning to eventually add it. Cost about 10 bucks in parts/wires plus the camera.
HAPPY 4th everyone!

I think I'm just gonna do this myself. I didn't think it was THAT easy. Just make a harness and hook up the camera and done.

!&*##%@ some asshat in Ikea ran their cart into my rear bumper. Have a nice 1" scratch (paint totally removed) on the lower portion of my bumper. Anyone know of a shop that could hook that up?

how big of a scratch? too big for touch up and a buff job?
people just dont care about other people property anymore.. i swear they should make force fields for vehicles and houses

^^^ I can buff out about half of it and from a distance you can't really tell since it's on that low ridge of the bumper. Touching up white never looks as good as touching up dark colors but I think with some patience and my buffer I can conceal most of it...
