So I had discovered a soaked carpet and a trunk full of water, so I did this.




I've been waiting for a decent day to try to seal the cracks in the roof, I did that yesterday, still have the carpet out to see if it's going to leak still. Also did this...

My driver side rear door leaks and I have had the panel off and attempted 3 times to fix. It still leaks. I just put a towel on the floor to soak it up. It rains a lot here. I sealed the ones on the roof to prevent the trunk from leaking. I hope you are going to be all good with your interior. Your rear disk conversion is mouth watering. GOOD JOB VERY NICE.

Received the Mugen rear view mirror cover in Milano Red and installed. Adds a nice pop of color to the Fit interior. Please don't mind my filthy Fit, gotta wash her soon.

Well I finally got flashpro figured out and took the car for a much needed drive. I got that emissions tune on and once I pass everything will be disassembled and getting ready for cage.

Same one. I blew the engine on my friends race car that I was driving and had to pay to put an engine in it. So all the money saved went to that. But I'll be getting the cage done soon. Haven't drove the car in a while so I'm going to drive it for a month or so and then back to the garage and disassembled.

Flush it more than twice you're playing with it.

Had a rattle at 2500rpm that's been driving me nuts, found it was the one on the cat so I unbolted it and cut the metal around the sensor so it can just be pulled off. One of the bolts had no contact with the top heat shield (looks like the pieces separated) so I trimmed it, bolted it back up and no more rattle.
I could have just left the shield off but my luck I would have to park on grass tomorrow and light everything on fire, that cat gets HOT.
Also fixed my driver side fog light, works perfectly now.

I need a new exhaust from the header to the muffler, an intake, maybe the intake manifold, hondata and a tune.

I installed front and rear Tokico HTS shocks/struts(Swift springs already on there). Stuck the camber bolts in and put some RE-71R tires on my extra wheels, headed to autox tomorrow, should be fun. Nothing like changing everything and then trying not to drive like an idiot.

Nice, enjoy them.

A little tip to help adjust those dampers consistently... start with the adjustment screw at FULL stiff, then soften to your preference. These WILL NOT stop spinning once you go dull soft.
