Get a hold of Robert at ZeroLift, they should be able to fix that real quick, we just finished a Prototype Cat back exhaust for the RalliArt, they should be able to get some Flex and get the old cutout and new welded in pretty quick.

maybe it is you, does your X have the mr bbs wheels? have you seen my bby VIII? also dealerships usually suck about actually knowing what they are talking about... i had a salesman once try to convince me that the STi i was checking out had a flat 6 motor in it

I havent actually seen another PB GSR but Im assuming they are as common as the other x's.

yeah probably, to my knowledge, I think I'm still the only one in Cincy with a '09 RA, I used to hit Belmer and Bum Spot all the time when I had my Vibe and Civic. This year has been a bit crazy, try to go to Best Buy Tri-County on Thursdays and occasionally Middletown on friday nights.

Nice looking car! Exhaust looks great. Sounds loud. If you need any help with installing your mods shoot me a PM. This past week installed 2 Dps and a dominator 2.0. Enjoy working on the cars! Oh, and you need tint as bad as me!

believe it or not, it's actually more quiet then my Vibe was. I like it loud though, rather listen to the engine then the radio

Thanks for the offer on giving me a hand, really don't need it though, I've done alot of work over the years, last year I did new clutch/flywheel in the Vibe at my buddy's barn, then later last year, I to had to swap trannys, ended up doing it in my driveway. and building the Supra in the garage. I love Wrenching on stuff, not so good at the tuning electronic crap but eh, I can still wire a Radio and ****
I'll be happy to extend the offer to anyone that needs a hand with anything, bring it over and bang that **** out


Yeah, Tint was the first thing that I took care of. did 15% on the Rear Windshield, then 35% on all doors looks Hot, but I haven't gotten any good pictures lately.

Yeah, Mike and Robert. they're talking about it, I'm not sure right now though, there's alot going on, main major thing going on right now is a Complete Rebuild of the Website, I thought he told me that he's done screwing with the city and going to move the cruise-ins to the Shop. plus I know they are starting to get the stuff together for StreetLife Tour at KilKare Sept 18th, trying to get vendors and sponsors together. on top of that, there was like 13 cars at the shop that need to get done. so right now there's no room for the Dyno. Told him he needed a bigger shop. LOL
