That's probably the smarter thing to do so you don't have to worry about hydro-lock at all!

dude I didn't know what hydrolock was until I got it! When I bought my ra it had the cia installed already, otherwise, I would be 100% stock!

I've been running 6000k HIDs in my stock housings for almost a year, never been pulled over because of them. The cutoff isn't as sharp as an HID projector housing, but it's still sharp enough. I adjusted the aim of my lights so the low beams are just a little down from level. My high beams light up the night. Especially with my HID fogs on.

I wish I could be all stock w/the exception of my short shift and black tails. I have an aem cia as well, but besides those three, I'm all stock (as far as I know)

Sweet! That's good you decided to go that route. I would hate for someone to put a make shift pos intake in a nice ra. Please post pics!

parrish, your RA looks great. i just wish mine didnt have that stupid column in the grille. i guess i could dress it up with some mesh grilles and a RA badge though.

and yeah, im eagerly awaiting my sri, should be in next week. and pics will come, maybe a video if im feeling frisky.

yea man, that's the only reason I haven't traded mine in yet for an auto, fully stock ra. There is one at the dealership, but it's an 04. I don't like the front on the 04. I really love my ra, there are just a few things I would change, just for personal preferences.

yeah, i frickin love the 06 RA. i guess i'll have to buy some mesh grille replacements and the RA badge soon.

im also thinking about taking the mitsu symbols off and painting them red, maybe with some red touch-up paint from the mitsu dealership or something.
