- rear+front upper strut bar
- Suspension Techniques front sway bar
- short shifter adapter
- cf gauge panel
- Tarox grooved front disk brakes
- EBC red stuff pads
- Bomz CAI
- ebay DC sport header
- resonator test pipe
- oxygen sensor simulator

Opinions welcome!

I'm getting new pads and discs all round over the next few weeks. I'm gonna get the EBC RedStuff Ceramic pads. What do you think of your RedStuff and Tarox discs?

Compared to stock, it's great. But I think my next pads will be Tarox also. These red stuff are a bit funny. They work great with the slightest push of the pedal and also when braking really hard. It's impossible to overheat them. But they tend to vibrate when braking from high speeds with a moderate push of the pedal. It's hard to describe the feeling. I have a feeling the densly grooved Tarox's don't suit them too much...

I'm glad you like it guys!

94AccordSedan: If I were you, I wouldn't bother with the rear wiper... I think you would need to replace the back window to fit it. And it looks ghay anyway.

As for the 4WS... Here's a couple of pics and a short video. On the video I had the lude for only a week or so and was still getting used to it.

Right click & Save as...

teehee~~~

search my threads on this. there are a lot of subtle differences but the main one is a less agressive ECU and a different catalytic converter. However, it is OBD1.
