2 PetzK: is that Integra Type R front seats in your hachi?
I just love those seats. The most comfortable seats I've ever been.

real nice!

[PetzK]

Here's some new pictures from this year, with new front suspension, and it has been tweaked out in the interior...

Very nice car PetzK.

What did you do to the interior?

[jamiemirror]

NRCA or camber plates ?

[PetzK]

@jamie: T3 camber plates

@zax: interior: I installed a new&better alarm, ADDED sound-deadening, modified hifi installation&doorboards, removed Racimex oil press.&temp and restored to stock configuration, changed seat belt roll-up thingy from jap-spec to euro-spec, installed a less-short-shifter (DIY instead of T3), improved my onboard wiring I did last year, restored the luggage top cardboard thingy, installed my Momo Corse steering wheel with a spacer, and lots of other small stuff fixed.

Strange thing is, the more I modify this car, the more it returns to OEM form and the better it gets... I am more and more convinced, that all this modding and 'tuning' is just cheap crap which often compromises functionality and actually often hurts performance more than it helps...
