Know original steering wheel, I'm from Canada it's a cx. Power nothing with the dealer install manual sun roof. My car weighs exactly 2050lbs. And once you get in the car the tach is a perfect size, I find it compliments the rest of the car. Know different then any other 5" tach that is in every other eg you see.

Looks great, drums killed it.

That's you're opinion. I all most have a sub 2000lbs car. Drums are totally fine. I upgraded to KVR slotted rotors and pads, and trust me when I say the car stops on a dime. Besides I have way less braking problems and a lot more reliability with my drums.

Nice wheels

Does the Tach have a CUCKOO for shift point warning?

Some people prefer rear drums due to their weight over disk. Rear disk brakes....on a crx anyway, add about 7 lbs per side of unsprung weight. Some people even go to the extreme of finding rear drums from 84 CRX's.

Drums aren't exactly plesant to the eye, but they have their purpose...

EDIT: Why not get a cluster with a tach? It'll make the interior nice and simple.

Thank's , I don't need a light to tell me to shift. It's actually disconected , pretty anoying at night time when you're driving. And for the record my interior has a lot of Carbin fibre (the color of tach) my buddy bought this tach and had it in his eg for a week and needed money and I got it for $125. So thank's for the comments, I did'nt post pics to get crtisized. I'm sure there are things on you're ride I would probaly laugh at but that's what makes everyone different.

And besides the type-r shift boot and e-boot make up for it with the spoon shift knob. Ha ha ha.

Right now I'm spending money on the car going faster, a newcluster is on the to do list but way at the bottom right now. I really apreciate everyone caring so much about my tach though, it makes me feel super special.:) :bong:

the carbon fiber on the dash actually looks good.

Me like!

^^ Thank's. It's the good C/F kit to. Not the cheesy $200 ones you see. This shit reflects in the light exactly like a high quality hood (which I have) beacause I love C/F.

congratz...you just convinced me to get 15" Konig Heliums!

EDIT: that cf interior does look sick, and what shift knob is that?

T-MacK
05-24-2007, 02:19 PM
^^ Thanks, its a spoon sport shift knob. It weighs next to nothing and is really tiny.

nice, now i also know how good those wheels will look with my slotted rotors..if they ever get here lol

like to get those in bronze, but if i cant find that color black will suffice

T-MacK
05-24-2007, 02:26 PM
There is all so a black with red lip. You should'nt have a problem finding the bronze ones.

hey man, not trying to jack your thread, but do ya know any websites besides ebay i can find that wont cost me 800 bucks for just the wheels? lol

i found them in black on ebay for a little cheaper than $430 shipped, but the websites i have they are over $700 just the wheel, and before shipping

T-MacK
05-24-2007, 02:40 PM
Man, I live in Canada. If I lived in the states S&H was free I think. Anyway's I don't know any websites that have them. The company I bought my wheels from off E-bay had the ones you're looking for $360. I'm confused why you don't just buy them of E-Gay. I can look up the number of the place for you if it helps?

Agent T
05-24-2007, 02:41 PM
considering most online stores charge the cost of my soul for them, ebay is probably gonna be where i get them, just cant seem to find them in bronze right now, definately gonna keep looking though

Looks great, drums killed it.

I think that's what this guy originally meant... the drums aren't bad... it's just that they're red... in which i agree - black for the "clean" status!

Yeah know shit, but I would expect it if it was a rice rocket. I've went out of my way to keep it clean and mean. And to everyone on the color of my drums , the car was originally red. Actually if you see it in real life everything matches up kind of neat.
