Coat that license plate relocator with something like Plasti Dip, else it will rust quick. Especially since you're up north like I am.

Its aluminum so it won't rust.

Picked up a set of wheels for winter.



Polished si's. Tires are 195/60 and 195/55. I'm going to put the 195/60 in the back and the 195/55 in the front. I'll raise the car up a little so they don't rub. Hoping this is the last winter this cars sees.

Picked up a used set of Hasport EKK2 mounts for a pretty good deal. Had to take the 1.5hr drive into Queens, NY but I couldn't pass up on a steal. There a little nicked up but the bushing are in very good condition.

Started polishing my mounts



Then I swapped wheels only to find out two tires didn't hold air smh





Then I found a complete eg subframe/ non power steering rack with shock forks for the low.



Just covered in mud. The guy who sold it to me did off-roading in his eg lol. Kinda weird.

So whats the plan with the rotas?

Store them over winter once I get two new tire. I still have them on in the rear with the Si's up front. They have good tires so I may use them for autocross if I get into that. I plan to get some real wheels after paint. Just undecided yet. Maybe RPF1's

Picked up a set of Hybrid Racing RSX shifter cables. Happy New Years. Hopefully this car is swapped in 2015.

Hey did you send a core harness to wireworx or did you just pay the $100 core charge? Also what's the difference in the over the VC vs OEM T route? Been looking into getting one.

I sent in a core since I had a mint TSX wiring harness with my longblock from hmotors.

The over the valve cover harness is what I'm using on mine....it literally goes over the valve cover where the coilpacks are and enters the cabin on the passenger side like a D/B/H series engine harness does.

The T route is setup like a RSX engine harness where the main portion of the harness and the section that enters the cabin is pretty much in the center of the engine bay.

The white Wireworx label is on the section that enters the cabin

Thanks didn't know that. Can you post a link to Kevin's build thread? From the photo it looks like it might be one I want to read.

Small update. I decided that getting new parts for the steering rack is a smart idea so I ordered new inner and outer tie rods as well as new bellow boots. I also needed to get new camber arms for my rear disk setup that I've had sitting around for over a year now so hopefully I can get those on this spring. I went with buddy club as I feel they make top notch suspension parts. They should be here Friday.





My pile is slowly growing
