[SurgeSi]

[SurgeSi]

[SurgeSi]

here's how it looks intalled
will get better pics with the DSLR

decided to leave the sunroof and visor the original gray color and i think it turned out pretty good.
Black suede would obviously look WAY better but thats a lil too much work

[SurgeSi]

thought this pic looked cool

I have that yonaka on my em1 too. I actually got it because it was super cheap and I didn't want a fart can. I could not have found a better dd exhaust. How did you do your headliner? I have been thinking about doing mine. Any links to DIY's?

 

[Mern]

Very nice stuff. What exhaust is that exactly? Also where did you get the steering wheel? It's amazing.

The wheel & headliner look cool, I would change the color to black though for the sunroof & visors but good looking job there.

 

[SurgeSi]

this is a pretty good DIY for the headliner http://honda-tech.com/showthread.php?t=2338395
The steering wheel is a CTR (JDM type R) wheel a lil smaller than our stock and WAY better feel + look



the reason i didnt do the visors and sunroof cover in black is because it would take too long to paint the hinges on the sunroof visor and the "oh s**t handles"
didnt want to go through all that
turned out better than i thought though.
i might get a wink mirror so that will eliminate the visors

 

[OTiS133]

wink mirrors are freaking awesome. definatly worth the 22 bucks.


anybody know if yonaka has a dyno chart out for there exhausts?

 

[NJcoupe]

What would you rate the yonaka exhaust, i have what i think is a ebay fart catback on mine but i run a silencer on it. it looks bad thats the reason why i would think of getting the yonaka.

Super clean! Nice buy. What'd you pay for your CTR steering wheel, i'm considering switching from my momo.. I'm just getting tired of that look, lol.

 

[TokyoSkies]

CLEAN ass car. You've got a lot of the same ideas going on that I'm going to be implementing in mine ('cept I need a paint job. Thankfully my buddy works at a paint shop ) My headliner is sagging in the back (the actual headliner piece is shot, need to buy a new one :/). Did you just re-upholster, or replace the whole thing? If so, where'd you find the headliner? I haven't been able to find an EX headliner for the life of me! GLWB, this car is going to be sick!

I bought the CTR wheel for around $300 air bag and horn work so no SRS lights
