I agree it looks amazing, stock ride height and all. And dropping four pounds per corner of unsprung and rotating mass is arguably a more significant improvement than lowering springs anyways.
Finally got it back from having the dents in the roof PDR’d! The largest dent was the most stretched the shop owner has ever dealt with in his 30 years of doing this work, something like 1/4-3/8” of displacement over a 2-3” diameter spot adjacent to the roof brace. Remember we are talking...
Gorgeous! Best of luck with the new ride!
I got to go visit my Integra at the shop today. It’s been in for this repair for two months, longer than I got to drive it before the tree branch fell on it. Fortunately they were able to do everything with PDR and the car will be as good as new. The...
I have thought about refinishing the OZs. I just had the old wheels from my other car completely refinished - stripped, powdercoated, machined the face, and clear coated, for $260/wheel. I went that route because there are very limited options in the fitment I needed. Given that the OZs are not...
Nice! Yeah the sale is making it very tempting. Can’t wait to see how the gold looks on your car. I bought new wheels for both my cars back in the fall, and ended up not loving either set, so I’m kind of apprehensive about straying too far from what I see and like immediately. I did this...
Looks great, Dan! I still have Rotas on my Legacy that I bought from you guys in 2007! Just refinished them this past month.
Glad to see you in the ITS community.
I’ve toyed with the idea… I had black chrome accents on my accord and really liked it. I am currently dealing with the same issue on my Legacy - for years I had wheels with a machined face, and figured I’d try an anthracite wheel for a change. Nope! Hated it! Shipping them back to Tire Rack for...
Guys, I am realizing I don’t really love the black wheels I put on my car. I’m new to owning a white car and thought it would look good to do the black/white combo, but the wheels get lost in the mix. Maybe I need to just live with it a while longer, but I’ve been daydreaming about the Apex EC7...
I was also surprised to learn this from my PDR guy, having seen your experience documented here. However I also watched the branch fall on my car and I was shocked that the damage was as limited as it was. I’ll try to get more technical info out of him when I pick the car up… panel thickness...
Missing my ITS… it’s been in the PDR shop since the beginning of December after a large branch fell squarely on the roof while parked in my driveway. Had a large dent where the A pillar wraps into the roof rail, and a much deeper one near the antenna.
The repair involves removing the entire...
LSM Type S heading through Providence, RI on 95 southbound, around 5:45am today. Was driving a different vehicle this, but I’ve pulled up next to you before in my ITS. You on here?
I thought I saw video of someone opening that plate on the inlet pipe to reveal it's strictly a Helmholtz resonator. It is unfortunate that it's so damn close to the heat shield, and I think you're right on that an aftermarket pipe will open up a much needed thermal break.
