Yeah, Rays is pretty much the parent company of Volk. They also have a number of other brands under them as well, I believe. G Games are sold exclusively by discounttiredirect.com (anyone else is a reseller, I believe). The G Games wheels are much cheaper than Volks (like $220 a rim for 17") but still Rays quality. I would buy them if I was looking for another set of 17". I'm planning on 16" once I sell the Falkens (Black Racing Pro N1 :drool: )

Ehhh, not a CB. It's a CC2 I believe. But yeah, it's FWD, and a manual. Depends where you live I guess if it's rare or not. They'll pop out once in a while, and they're usually at a fair price. Picked mine up with 126k mi for $3000. But you wanna know what's even rarer! A manual 2nd gen Legend. That was supposed to be my original purchase instead of the Vigor. Good luck finding one, especially the GS models with the Type II motor (230hp) in a 6spd manual. That's my dream daily driven car. My dad's gotta 91 Legend, and for an automatic, it hauls asssssss, stomped my buddy's old 90 Civic hatch (best e.t. in the 1/4mi was 15.8, so I'm guessing the auto Legend is somewhere in the mid 15's stock). It chirps second gear on 225's, that's a WOW for an automatic tranny. Lol, but yeah, you can tell I really wanted a manual Legend instead of the Vigor, but oh well, some other day.

let me see a pic with that exaust on...is it loud or what?What makes me laugh about forums, is that no matter how much you try to help someone, they dont take the advice. Go ahead and do it the hard way.
You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

When I first saw the engine shot pic, I thought the same thing. It's hard to believe that its a FWD with the engine placed that way. Weird.
Also, before I read this thread I always assumed the Vigors had the Legend V6. Never would of imagined that Honda made an I5. Crazy man, just crazy!
I remember when I worked for Saturn there was a Vigor in the wholesale lot. It was pretty cherry. It was that purpleish maroonish color with tan leather. I almost thought about picking it up. Instead I bought a 88 Accord coupe DX. Yeah it was a little bit of a step down.

Well, got the exhuast put on. $140 for 2-1/4 catback, not too shabby. Couldn't use the resonator because it was too long, so now I'm selling it. Wish it was on though, sucker's pretty damn loud, not ricey loud, but just deep loud...probably get one a little later. Here's a pic, and below is a link to a movie with the exhaust noise.
