Not sure about HT meet this year, super busy with work!!

Painted windows looks neat, but wont really work with my wheel i dont think?

I got a VI (vehicle inspection) yesterday, it was only a matter of time! Things i gotta fix in next 30 days;

- Tinted tailights
- No front plate
- No Cat
- No Horn
- Low tread (fronts are almost brand new!! Damn R compount tires )
- Rear wheels stick too far out past the car (only by 0.5")
- Some suspension work (tie rods, alignment)

glad i live in mn we dont have that normally and if we did i wouldnt get it now cuz we have no govt anymore

So my reverse light switch was broken, new honda one was only $25! Thats fixed, and i passed inspection, back on the road Car feels awesome, drives great, currently working on my wheels (painting the inner barrel, sand + repolish lips to perfection), and a couple other cosmetic things are in the works! Hope to have some new pix soon.

You right then, i thought your reverse light didnt came on either ways.

[aleks77]

I bet its the speed sensor, take it off and remove the small metal ring in between, put it back and try. The pin might got used and got shorter by now. Had that problem on my previous ex-r, easy 4-5min fix. If it doesnt fix it.. at least you know its not the problem and you didnt spent money before testing.

You mean the Vehicle Speed Sensor, or the Reverse light switch? Whats happening is when im in REVERSE the lights are OFF, but any other gear (1-5) the reverse lights turn on!!!

Nahhh Sell them....... To ME!! haha

Keep on dreaming... if he sells them i'd make a big offer he couldnt refuse. You have better chance finding any OEM rare part then these rims nowaday.

- Reverse Lights wired up, but currently not working properly (might be reverse light switch)

Those fix it tickets must suck major ass.

I havnt gotten a legal inspection done ever i think lol , i know people that for less than 100 give you one legit.

And those wheels man , ive said it before are sexxxxx!

[aleks77]

they used to make it in 17" 4x114.3 but not anymore. I got it used, the guy had 4x114.3 faces, and all kinds of lips/barrels, so i just told him approx what i need and he made the set for me out of all used wheels. It will be pretty hard to track down a simular set i imagine...but im sure its possible! I was thinking of selling these, but i think im just gonna get these re-made into 18" step-lip now

[kosheen1]

how d'you get those vs-xx in 4x114.3? Do they made it on special order?

[Smiley_cb7]
