Did you modify the intake at all? Any pics if so.

Nope, its my dead stock intake from Oct. 5th of 2007 when the car was built.

I do have one that I was gutting at work stashed away, just never got a plastic welder to put it together.

I think you'll like the pulley upgrade. I liked it for mine.
What is a CDV bypass?

Removing the clutch delay valve. The stainless line replaces the valve and rubber line from the clutch master cylinder to the slave cylinder.

What are the advantages of this? Where did you get yours?

Yep, everything is DEAD STOCK for the intake so pics aren't really needed unless you want to see a dirty engine bay. I'm just running full exhaust and 1 step colder spark plugs on 93 octane though... I'll post up a pic of the dyno run tonight after work.

And here's a picture of the dyno. Torque somehow got messed up on the graph... I wish I made that much but in all honesty I'm likely making between 90 to 95 wheel torque. WHP is 103.51 for those who may not be able to see.

My first time logging back in here in a few years. Was looking at pics of my old GD. God damn I want that car back. Anyone know of any for sale in the CT/MA area?

My chrome finish with wood grain door pins came in along with my wood grain trim pieces. I won't be installing until my carbon fiber door pins come in. I'll decide then which one I like more then. Option #1 wood grain chrome door pins (will be staining the wood to match the trim grain) with brush silver finish door handles or option #2 carbon fiber door pins with brush silver finish door handles no trim pieces.

wood grain chrome finish door pins


chrome door pin surrounds


wood grain trim piece laid on top of silver finish door handles


if I do go this route, the door pins will be stained to match the darker trim

I can imagine the end result looking rather tasteful when finished. I'm not sure what staining for the wood you'll using but choosing the aluminum door handles over chrome was a good call. It should not clash at all against the wood trim.

A few days ago I installed my Seibon carbon fiber hood and the Seibon rear garnish (the one just below the rear window that has the "H" emblem and the windshield wiper). The garnish doesn't have a hole for the windshield wiper so I had to figure out how to delete the wiper. For now. The fit of the hood and garnish are great. I was really worried, as I had read that carbon fiber stuff has a habit of not fitting properly, but was pleasantly surprised.

Hell yeah.

Hopefully i'll be on the dyne again soon. I'm hoping to have the new exhaust set-up in the next few weeks. Way to eager for this. Hoping to get at least 115 to shooting for 120whp.

121.3hp or 91kW for those who don't speak German.

There is a "What did you dyno at?" thread around here somewhere. I'm sure I could throw on a few more bolt-ons and make an extra 6hp to beat their numbers. Same could be said for a few other members too.

Haven't done anything to the Fit in a while. I prob won't either until I graduate from grad school.

In the meantime, I've been picking up random accessories on the side.


JDM HOP stickers


ARC Magic sticker


Another ARC Magic shift knob (free from my friend)

JDM is not inexpensive. I myself are all about the go but still admire JDM and certain show vehicles.
