the quality of the leather is pretty decent. it all depends on your personal taste. thats why i didnt go for ssl on my IX, i dont like the slippery feel of leather...not in a sports car. if you like leather though, there really is no downside (apart from having to condition the stuff every now and again)

i dont think that was me you saw the other day...i've never been to the la granja on commercial...there's another IX MR that looks just like mine tho (advan decal and all) but he's running a GT35R ...maybe it was him

 

Just a suggestion, if you want questions answered you might want to do it on the Info thread! that way it won't get burried with all the other crap we say on here!! Plus you can find the reply faster!!

 

The Buschr TBE w/ the bullet muffler and test pipe sounds like what you're looking for. It has a nice burbly rumble at idle and it absolutely screams at WOT. When i first got it, i thought it was way too loud (compared to stock) but now i love it. If you're at the next meet, you can hear what it sounds like. Scooter has the magnaflow muffler with a HFC on his exhaust (i think) so its alot quieter than mine.

 

If you had asked at the meet we could have helped you out... I know you went for a drive in one car, you should have asked a variety of people. I know that my Buschur is deeper than normal and a little quieter at idle. But it screams like a Banshee at WOT. If you are in the Kendall area you can come over to my place and I can take you for a ride. (Did I just say that?)

 

Don't worry, we have her covered.

 

Since I'm going for the Corbeau racing seats I figured you wouldn't want my answer.

 

I thought all ix came w the same seats i didn know there was a difference....hmmm damn i missed that =)

 

Scott are those comfy??? And they look like they sit lower than ours

 

Lol Doc, really had me going with the whole civic thing that was pretty funny. It's crazy though how the rs is missing so much stuff!

Evo Girlie- I personally <3 the seats on my IX the leather/alcantara is really nice and it seems to old up pretty nice. My seat has the normal wear and tear from me driving like an animal but still looks good. I personally don't like the all leather seats, but ix seats are nice! Lol and why did you park so far from everyone lol??

I_<3_Evo_IXs- You should of gone for a ride in my car. I have a hks hi-power and 3 inch downpipe and test pipe...I love it sounds really nice, does not drone and is a monster at wot. Maybe at the next meet you can hear it. I'm sure the guys heard it when I left around 12...

Btw- I was the GG Evo Ix that pulled in a little after 10.

 

RS = Evo on a diet.

 

U drive like an animal i c lol, get the car tuned and get rid of the halman =)... my friend drove the car on the way 2 the meet and originally parked next 2 the white civic but it was 2 tight so i made her back up 2 the other space. I gotta post pics of all the cops around our cars we are big trouble makers hehe.

If u want a greddy ebc jeff aka evoryder is selling one w a hooter gift card (that's a bonus 4 u guys)
Or if u want 2 stay w manual forge is what i have now and it holds beautifully.

 

Or Rice Spice, (sorry i'm way bored 2day).

 

Yep I might actually be getting my car tuned this week. I am going to keep the boost low for now because my car bucked twice in 4th gear on sat night. The hallman has actually been fine for me it hold boost pretty nice, but im going to keep it for now. I will eventually get a ebc just for the comfort factor of it...

 

pipes and hoses

 

I have no Idea... I need to find someone in Miami that has a demo. If not I need to measure my butt and compare it to the measurements on the seats. The most important thing is that the side bolsters will keep me from sliding when I autoX.

As for sitting lower I don't know but as tall as I am I hope they do sit lower. YOU might need a booster with those seats.
