29,000 miles on an 08? i thought i was low with 47,000 miles

 

It's actually an 07 and yes...very low mileage. It was 18,000 when I got it.

 

Trust me I know and I am not running SCCA (as I've said multiple times) so most of those classification rules do not apply to me.

 

I may have put on my summer tires/wheels a bit too early

 

Gave it a little wash and quick wax.
I need to hunt down a couple suspension clunks this week.

 

How do you like the clazzio covers? I've been thinking about getting them, but they aren't a cheap investment lol

 

Went with a shark-fin antenna and found a better way to do DRL (the last set I had cracked and got full of moisture..

I like them, even some of my friends didn't know it was a seat cover til I told them. Been 3.5 years still look pretty good.

 

I too have a nice set of clazzio seat covers and man i will say they were the best $450 bucks i have ever spent on my car, they look and feel awesome. I highly recommend getting a set if you have not already.

 

Well here's some pics of the new axle back. Custom JSPFab looking good on the rear.

 

^^ Beautiful welds on the tip!

 

That's what she said....

 

I guess she might be a freak if she likes metal tips.

 

Staggered wheels is the easiest way to get the car to rotate. If i was ballin I would do this setup too but I'm not so I run same tires front and rear so I can rotate the tires and get the most life out of them. The rear tires don't wear out at all on my car. I could probably run like 2 or 3 full seasons on a set of rears.... but fronts I go thru in 1 or 2 weekends. The rears would heat cycle out at about mid season so there will still be a ton of tread but not much grip.

 

Oops, I didn't see the bit about spring lengths. I'm always mentally ran ragged after work so please forgive me on missing things like this.

The reason behind going with a shorter front spring is due to having to install 2 inch helper springs as a preventive precaution after breaking the strut bearing (and keeping the spring in place while the strut assembly is unloaded/in the air). With these installed and my Ground Control collar at its lowest point up front, I was effectively at STOCK height... So drop 1 inch of spring length and I should be fine with getting back to my previous height. In addition to that, the Swift springs that I'll be switching to will be lighter than these Eibachs.





In all honesty, I'm not quite sure how but it seems like I either landed too hard after tripodding the front end on the street (spring drops down, no preload at all), clipped our 'dip" at our road course/skid pad during an AX event too aggressively, or it finally gave out after raising and lowering the car so many darn times for wheel/tire swaps. But its fixed for now...

Shoot... I'm ballin' on a budget. The tires on the Storms are all used but still in good condition. BUT... What's nice about this situation is I can effectively play with so many wheel/tire combos for autocross. NT01/R888, NT01/AD08R, NT01/ENVigor, R888/AD08R, R888/ENVigor, AD08R square, AD08R/ENvior, or ENVigor square...

NT01 and ENVigor has been the most fun combo yet. haha

 

Installed koni yellows on the rear after having them in my garage for around a year. So far I like them, but I've only driven with them on for maybe thirty minutes. I seem to let things marinate in the garage for a while before installing.

 

Haha, parts marinate in my garage during the winter when it's too F*&%KING cold to install anything lol

 

Took care of my suspension clunks.
I need to get intake, maybe the wr im, all exhaust components, hondata and a tune.
I also wouldn't mind swapping out my current suspension for something a little more occasional track oriented.

 

Well it's time for this to happen. Last power mod for the Fit!

 

^ awesome... where did you get them from?
