matting a car add anywhere from 50-100 lbs. If i remember correctly when i fully matted my rsx (double on doors/side panels)and foam insulated it (ensolite), the total shipping weight of everything was near 90lbs. Well worth it if you spent a ton on audio equipment and want the best out of it. Road noise level after matting was even quieter then tsx.

ugh i can barely tell my car is running
stock is killing me...
oh funny story about loud cars...
i was at PIR this summer and my friend went up to talk to his friend and in the mean while i was letting air out of my tires this guys gf comes up to me to talk to me. (i think ito myself - ok im not going to judge right - mayb shes into this since shes here) she tells me how scary drag racing is at PIR and shes worried about her bf going 100 and asks me if i think its scary and wheres my bf and i was just like umm im here to race - no its not scary. she then continued to tell me how she hated the smell and how all the cars were so loud. i was just like ok and walked around to the other side of my car to ignore her.
<<PIR is a bad place for me - girls are usually dumb and guys are like omg a girl driving a car...i tend to just roll my window up on ppl and pretend i dont see them thru the tinted glass lol
>>>>>>guys shouldnt take girls like that to car events unless the girls are going to be gettin naked...

I know of two black on black. My neighbor has one, along with his ferrari in murrayhill, and my gf's neighbor has one off of 170th/farmington. So it could be either one, both with rims and exhaust. I run to my window everytime I hear them. I want one next year.
Werd, but im old now...lol
my old teggie was stripped to the bone with just the two front seats and a bunch suspension bars inside. Been a while since i was in the drag scene, still have my first place plaque/jacket from imports drags tho lol...

28 isnt old...and that is why my teg sits in a hidden garage no one knows about i drive it around to drive it to look sexy...dont take it places really lol
Replaced the carburetor with a hi-perf one and had exhaust. I think it had a whopping 100 hp after I was done. Dropped on 175/70-13's. Nice chocolate brown color. 
LOL, no one on this thread was even born when I drove this car.
lol >> hey dont try to make 100 hp sound bad...old school corollas are amazing haha
not old but i feel old. Yea the one thing i hated about driving the teg was that i was always paranoid with it being stolen. It was broken into like 3 times but they could never take car.
i know one older guy driving blk on blk with comptech exhaust and aftermarket chrome wheels. usually drives around in beaverton-hillsdale. also white one with older asian man driving around aloha and beaverton. white one is running around with some bodykit but kinda looks like its his beater.
i havent driven on the road yet to see if there is a difference on the strut bar.. its alot lighter for sure though.. it was a biznatch to put in too..
So this NST pulley - is it a lightened crank pulley like the UR? If so, why NST and not UR, or does UR not make one for the TSX?
UR makes a underdrive kit i wanted an OEM size that is lighter since i plan to some day run supercharger or turbo.. i suppose with a turbo it wouldnt matter but i dont want to under drive a supercharge cause then i would be making less boost.. unfortunetly i cant get a single power steering pulley so i might have to shell out for that..but i did speak with the owner of NST and they are suppose to do that next year for our cars so i might wait on that
I believe that the DC5 pulley's will work because the UR pulleys are actually for the DC5 but work just fine on the TSX. So you could find someone parting out and pick up the UR PS pulley or a JDM DC5 pulley.
I can imagine the CT strut was a pain, my neuspeed was a pain as well and requires less work lol.
Side note: OMG SUNSHINE!
