Oh god! TE37 + Mu = sex.

Tampa too. Where'd you get your wheels? And how long did you wait to receive them? I'm really considering getting some Gunmetal TE37s or CE28s..

...Size and offset?

Is Storm Silver in the base model different than the Silver Storm Metalic of the sport model? I noticed this one is called Storm Silver.

Would you believe this entire time, I thought it was Silver Storm Metallic.

I stand corrected.

Thank you for your kind correction.

I don't like all the carbon either. Makes it look too Ricey IMO. But I like the wheels and brakes. Also I think it is too low for everyday driving.

I installed the HKS Turbo kit last week, on my 2008. The Kit was fun to do, with really no hard parts. The Pics on the install sheet would go from a JDM Fit to a US Fit, made it interesting. The car run great, with no problems to say. Can't wait to get me exhaust made next week. The stock piping is hella small.

Here are some pics of installing the HKS kit,

You probably messed up your brake bias, now you have way too much brakes up front compare to the back, it might lock up under hard braking and understeer.

I guess by looking at the car seeing drums in the back and BBK in the front.
I took the car Auto X two weeks ago and I could not believe how it stopped. I never had any lock ups. This is not at high speeds (Auto X). It took a little for me to get use to braking that late in to a corner, but once I got over that I improved my time by leaps and bounds. At the end of the day I had shaved over 2 secs of my Best times. So far my best Improvement. I am Going again on July 13, will see if the Turbo kit helps me?

I will try some high speed stop to see what happens

Beautiful car! The Electronic Brake Distribution should adjust for the difference in front/rear stopping power.

How's the tune seem with the HKS? Any backfires, pops, etc?
