ohhh dangg, yeah, im sure it isnt D: holy crap, sorry to hear that man! looks like you got it wayyy worse than me!



:'( stockiesssss..



haha, true that, and thank god 15" rims are cheap hehe. dang, that sucks man. but hey, as long as the rim survived, thats all that matters!

 

Spilled a cup of coffee in it.

 

That is what I need.. I am so damned sick of only finding right wing hate spewing and mindless cookie cutter country crap on the air waves here I do at times scream... You know, it is dangerous trying to change CDs or tune in on available stations while driving.. When I had My first Austin Healey my girl friend that lived between Dallas and Fort Worth wouldn't get in the car until she had lowered the antenna... She said it looked "country".

 

Thank-you Mr. Hootie
Hailie giggle, giggle

 

btw if any of you are interested in the $13 beat sonic shark fin antenna (retail is $60+) i posted a thread on it: https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...fin-cheap.html

 

so i went to ifo in az on sunday so i put some extra stuff in my car this past week. first on wed i pick up this deck and installed.




then i drove up to cali to pick up these bars on friday. was 14 hrs round trip... didnt get home till 3:30 am and i had to work the next morning at 7. OUCH!!! installed them on sat night after i took a nap.this is inside view.




view from back. had to cut some holes in headliner to fit.




i took some pretty tight turns with the bars and they do help out a lot. no more body flex. yay!

 

I used to have those bars too. nice man

 

Used to? Y did u get rid of them?

 

lol... he got a 8-point cage... lucky bastard

 

Is it custom or is it an auto power cage?

 

heres the thread. custom. auto power doesnt make one for the fit.

Ill take better HD pics today after i install my camera mount, mirror mounts and helmet hook haha. Been busting my ass removing sound deadening and taking all unneeded wiring out.

 

I was told they would if i asked. But the cage looks sick bro.

 

Thanks man. All said and done due to how intricate the design is, 2500 OUCH! lol its okay. 1 time deal so do it pro. amirrite? haha

 

Sorry to hear about that, but +rep because you made me lol

 

with how much labor hrs is involved... Its worth it.

 

It's worth every penny if it keeps you alive in the event the worst occurs, IMHO.

I'm having mine drawn up currently. (12pt)

Also, looks bad ass to anyone behind you in traffic.

 

Nice man! how are you counting 12? i state that mine is 8 because the legs touch/ connect to 8 points. however anytime the cage is welded or connected to your chassis is considered a point to some rules. I might have about a 16 point cage lol.

driver side front shock tower, passenger side front shock tower
driver side a pillar, pass side a pillar
driver side lower a pillar, pass side lower a pillar
driver side b pillar top, pass b pillar top
driver b pillar lower, pass b pillar lower
main hoop driver side, main hoop pass side
man hoop to b pillar driver, main hoop to b pillar pass
rear shock tower driver, rear shock tower pass

and im sure theres more contact points with plates welded to the cage. lol

 

Basically the same with a few more points added for the unibody and roof rails, I will have pics!

But the guy who's doing it is in Michigan so whenever I have the funds and the time, which will hopefully be sometime this summer. He has a shell pretty much identical to mine, but he normally only does drag cages down to 9.9sec/150mph.

Unfortunately mine has to be legal at Bonneville and Loring where they are far more anal, so it may become quite cramped in there.

I also have to have my fire suppresion systems installed and a firewall for when I put in my fuel cell. Stock tank is legal because it is outside the car, but I want to have a diffuser mounted under and behind the rear subframe so its got to go.

It never ends... 22 months of work non-stop and counting.. I have plans to be in Texas in the next 18 months for some shakedown runs and to get some experience with what my current aero and suspension will do at those speeds. So maybe I can meet up with you, TC and hayden for some beers while Im down there!

The car starts to "float" past 150mph

But it gets there really ****ing quick and pulls like a train through 160.

 

^talking about your Fit DSM??? dang did'nt think it was so heavily modded!
Do you have any pics???

 

Installed mugen visors... On my way to install dc5 side markers!
