1) The chip in my key got messed up somehow so it wasn't the same as the chip in the dash, so the car won't let you start. Really stupid problem that's costing a lot of money.

2) He didnt have any wood and the cable just ripped the lip off the bumper when he tried getting it up... I just said **** it at that point and let him do his thing. Said it was easier than getting the rear first... Oh well.

thnx man, i went with Red muteki Lugs. I pre-loaded her again so the drop is a bit more aggressive now, i want to drop her more; but my area is full of Speed bumps, so s-techs on OEM shock is where ill be for now. i ended up just using my 245/40/18's, she rubs in the back when there is a sudden dip/drop, but other than that it's fine. i think i might just go 255 or 265, just to have that extra outer lip protection.

Just got my BB a few weeks ago. Just got all my parts from my old WWP on it. Let me know what y'all think. So far its got some cheap kazera kz-k wheels(looking at other options), Agency power catback and midpipe, Lebren rear fog light, and Night shaded tails and sides.

Its an inside joke with a few of my friends. They have honda emblems as drift charms as a joke to a few of my friends with hondas and I have a piston out of a b18 that one of those friends blew up. Plus I like all the questions I get about it! You'd be surprised how many people have no idea at all what a rotary is so this gets them asking and me explaining that those pistons are not in my engine... usually followed by a lot of puzzled faces haha
