LOL. That you did brother. I've had the same mounts since 07 purchase and they have been holding up just fine. They look mint too.

Today: I got the Fit insured and titled in my name! *does happy dance*
Not today but still fairly recent: Last Saturday, I did a little basic maintenance and installed a few goods I had laying around for a while. Did an oil change using Mobil 1 Extended Performance with 5w20 and using an OEM A01 Honda oil filter as well as tire rotation. While the car was on the lift, I installed Techna-Fit stainless steel brake lines, Carbotech AX6 pads (doing the 913 shoes later), installed Speed Bleeder brake bleeders, and did a complete brake fluid replacement using Motul RBF600.

The brake pedal feel is stiffer than stock due to the reduced amount of flex in the brake lines... nothing major but it is a noticeable difference. I'd HIGHLY recommend that if you were to do it yourself to set at least half a day aside and getting line wrenches to loosen and tighten the brake lines without rounding off anything as well as AT LEAST 16 fl oz of brake fluid to "comfortably" do the job.

Got my car back from being tuned made 175hp but clutch started slipping so he dialed Ur back to 171hp and 180tq. Ordered a clutch and am going to get a different waste gate and then back to finish the tune. Should make some good numbers.
I Agree!

I like those numbers. They are different from what i had. How much boost are you running?

I finally installed my OEM shift knob and boot on a GD3 off of a 2009 Fit. Ordered from Rakuten.co.jp and had it shipped via tenso. Shift knob was perfect and easy to install. Shift boot needed minor modification.

Winter rims or summer rims, those are niiiice either way.
I'll post some pics of my beater soon, but 2 days ago I replaced the engine mounts. Sooo niiice. Next up, oil and filter change. How exciting am I? Other than rims and springs I haven't done much in the last 3 years to this car except change oil and tires. Time for some TLC at the basic level.
Interior led lights, shorty antenna come next week and just maybe brake pads.
