    I thought you were going with a RHD clip? either way, i'm jealous. You can actually do work on yours...

    Yes the RHD will be what I end up with but the money is far more than I can afford at the time and the car would have to sit for long time while I saved up for it. Should find out this week about getting it emission tested. Debating on going to Import Face-Off here in Tuscon next month, the guys at BWR invited me to head out there.

    Right on man, hope you can get it registered. IFO came to Oregon for the first time a couple years back and came back this year but I had to work, totally regret not askin for the day off after seeing the pictures the next day. I say definitely go.

    Debating on if I want to make the drive, it's only like 2 hours. I guess if I can get my car registered in time then I might just do it. Not too big into drag racing though so just go for the other events I guess and to see some nice cars.

    Eventually I will have some more carbon pieces to add to my car. Would like to get a Carbon hatch, roof, airbag delete tray, quick release, and someday be able to afford some carbon Bride racing seats.

    It was a little difficult but put those ones in first and connect the screw to the post and then put the cover on and screw down the post to head. It took me a little trial and error when putting them on and had to try a few different ways. good luck with it man they look great once on.

    Well looks like they don't have the VC bolts yet but they do have the fender washers. Just a generic washer, will have to talk to them about making VC bolts.

    Yeah if you can get in with them that would be cool. I have been doing some networking with BWR now and have been trying to get in good with them cause they have hookups everywhere, and they are just a few miles from me so it's super easy to just cruise down and check out whats going on.

    Had some issues with payment on the air intake, the company had the wrong PayPal account listed so I had to cancel it and wait for the money to go back into my account and send them the payment again. Should have had it this week but now I'm looking at next week.

    I'll have to get some for my engine. Too bad about the intake. Did you see Street Obsessions' post about a group buy on a carbon fibre intake? sounds kinda mean...
